Background music not working

And I know i did it right, i set it as Microsoft ADPCM, 44,100 kHz, 4 Bit, Stereo. And for some reason all i hear is clicks or nothing at all

I've always done it this way. And never had a problem before.

Make sure the Kbps is 354. And everything else should read: Channel 2 Stereo ,44Hz 4bit, like you said.

Or you have the audio file renamed according to what the level uses.

They are set that way. But they still dont play

Ok its obviously some thing with the audio, One of the audios i made from different sound clips. And the other one I downloaded. But that shouldnt matter should it? As long as its converted into the right format. But yet when I save one of the other files from the TRLE Audio file over the file I am using as the background in my title flyby and 1st level. It plays back, but the audio i made and downloaded aren't playing.

EDIT
I changed programs and saved the files with a different program. And they are working now

If the sound is too long, some sound editing software will break it up into "chunks". You need to have it all in one chunk.
Try converting it with Windows Sound Recorder. Apparently it is able to convert it properly. I have also heard that CoolEdit will do it right.

The Official audio is 2:30, I NEVER changed the length of the audio. But I am now having another error. I can't begin to explain it, so I'll let this audio/video explain it for me......

I've never had this issue, never had any audio issues since I first started level building. And ever since I started and learned how to edited the audio. I've been doing the same thing over and over for 3 and a half years. How could i have done some thing wrong

I refuse to install flash so I have no idea what problem the video is showing. Someone else will have to help.

What's wrong with flash?

-

It shows that her title track plays INTO her level as it's backtrack. Instead of stopping when then the level loads.

Yah but only the first few seconds play of the title flyby music when the level starts.

It could be that your sound card drivers are buffering several seconds of the sound and finish playing it before the new sound starts.
