Unsuccessful attempts to create repo with my own music files from PC

Open MashupsRM opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

First, great app that does what's advertise!

From what I understand, it is possible to upload my own files to a repo and get them to work on Soundbound.

I've been able to create a repo of 29 mp3 songs from my PC using Visual Studio 2022, but been unable to see them appear on the app. (FYI, I've waited an hour for the songs to upload, tried with only one song in a folder from my desktop and it doesn't work.)

Is there something I'm doing wrong?

Note that i used a very clear step-by-step how-to from Copilot AI since I'm only a tech-savvy beginner on GitHub!

Thank you,

Nick

Hey,

the hosting of custom music is not simply like creating a repo of songs.

Things to clarify: in Soundbound world, when we say repo, its a custom hosted json, which has link to Javascript hosted module created from zipline which has the code to basically guide soundbound app to read music.

I will build a local reader in soundbound itself, at a future point in time, which will allow just simple soundbound app to show all local music,

Currently the extension-lib is under active changes, hence I havent build a doc on how to write custom repo.

I hope I was able to make some sense, if not lemme know will clarify more.
