This is a simple question. I can’t seem to get the folder object to acknowledge mp3′s. I know it needs to be fed a “Types” message, but I’m not sure what the appropriate abbvreviation for mp3′s is. I already tried MPEG and other such variants. What I really want is for the folder object to show all sound files, regardless of format. WAVE and AIFF is no problem, it’s the compressed formats that I can’t figure out. Nothing specific in the docs about this.

Same question regarding filter types for ubumenu. How to specify compressed audio files in the inspector.

type at all (this being usual for OS X’s schizophrenic TYPE/CREA
support.) Under Windows, I believe there’s a configuration file
somewhere which Max uses to associate file extensions with Mac-style
type tokens.

That said, ‘MPEG’ should do nicely and I’m not sure why it didn’t
work for you. The files are really valid?

Thanks everyone. The init file on my computer didn’t have .mp3 mapped to any code, so I just added it. Works perfectly, and now I know how to deal with other extensions in the future, if necessary.
