[arm-allstar] Weather Report Doesn't Play on BBB

[Jim Korenz]

I'm using v1.2 of the BBB software. I get the MP3 file directly from the weather service web page using curl. I am using Total Recorder to convert MP3 to WAV. I thought localplay would play the MP3 or WAV file. That would be simpler than to a text to speech conversion.

 I
 have some additional questions for you.  What version of
 the BBB software are you using?What utility is
 generating the MP3 file?  What utility and options are you
 using to convert the MP3 file to WAV?  If you are using the
 weather scripts that are available on the BBB release?  You
 not have to convert anything with the already installed
 weather scripts as it's done for you.

 Hi
 All,
 
    I have a problem playing the MP3 audio from the local
 weather station CLE. I am running a BBB as a link to the
 local repeater. Everything is working, AllStar, EchoLink,
 Allison speaks the time. But, when I try to play the weather
 report MP3 file using localplay, the radio keys up but no
 audio. I've converted the MP3 to a 16 bit, 8 Khz WAV
 file, but the same thing. Any ideas?
 
    Thanks,  JimK  N8PXW
