Audio Files

Hello

I link to audio files and the link seems to no longer work…in the last few hours. It was working a few hours ago.

The location is as below;
https://eu.backendlessappcontent.com/…8A7/files/audio/BeepTestS1.mp3

Am a novice so my rudimentary test was to drop the url in my browser and it is timing out…the non response seems to be crashing my app in Appgyver.

Thanks
Paul

Hi Paul,

The URL seems to be incomplete in the post - the three dots in the URL do not seem quite right. I’d like to try it out, could you please repost the complete URL?

Regards,
Mark

Hi Mark

Here you go…I was trying to be discrete but not sure why…it is just a URL!

Thanks

Seems to be working just fine here.

It still doesn’t open for you?

Hey Mark
No, in a web broswer I am getting the below if I paste the url straight in or double-click the file in Backendless…app unresponsive as well.

Hang on, I just turned my home wifi off and went on to 4G and the app responds.
Apologies…something has changed on my wifi to make that link not work…who knows but something for me to figure out.
Thanks!

FYI - I am in the UK and Sky (one of the large broadband providers here) for some reason started blocking access via their ‘shield’ system. Once I disabled this shield, everything began functioning again…really annoying :slight_smile:
