iPhone AVAudioPlayer failed to find codec

Answer 1

Anthony,

I received the same error message as well while using the Simulator. However I tried it on the device and it worked flawlessly.

For whatever reason, the simulator doesn't have all the codecs the device has (mulaw is software based decoded so the software must differ between the two).

Hope that helps you,

Rob

Answer 2

Well an official thanks to Rob! This drove me crazy for a while, but in the end it does work fine on the device, just not in the Simulator.
