Gzipping Mids & Mods
« on: January 11, 2005, 11:19:34 AM »

Hi Bert, I hope you can help me with this.  For some reason the midi I Gzipped won't play in my sig, or at all. Here it is:

http://suzhuz.zboxhosting.com/Rain_HaveYou...EverSeen.mid.gz
 
Am I doing something wrong?
I really liked the easy way to zip them.   biggrin

But it's a bummer that it won't play  :sad:

HI Suz, You never said how you were putting the URL into your sig. But, here is a tute page explaining how to use the gzipped on a page and in your sig. I have used this method and it works great!

HI Suz,
Just because of the way our server handles certain Mime types, you can't get a gz'ed music file to play by just autostarting the url. Follow the little tut Rox posted above and you'll be good to go. One thing to remember also is that you won't be able to hear the music file by just clicking on it in Ziteman. You will ONLY be able to hear it by embedding it in a sig or page following the above instructions.

LOL Suz! Nope don't give up! We'll get you through it. If you have any questions just post them. Once you get the hang of it it's pretty easy. JR loves it!
