Dear friends,

I would like to upload audio files in my component and when i add the MIME type (audio/mpeg, mp3)
is not working in sandbox with the error : Mime type not valid (), allowed Mimes are audio/mpeg :

If i remove the Allow from the File properties it gives me the error :
This file extension ( mp3 ) is not accepted, the accepted files are :

What i can do with this issue ?
How can i upload MP3 files into my component ?

Thank you in advance.

Hi There
In the file properties box
The MIME types in white are not valid
Green MIME types are Valid

The Audio MIMES are given as examples

You can however upload audio files using Cook by creating your own
- hit the + sign to add to the list
- input standard mime types for audio
start here MIME TYPES LIST

However if you intend to use it for a production site
- use the fork files to extend your validation process do not rely on just MIME identification
- personally i suggest you do not rely on Cook alone to provide MIME validation
- Google and implement a stronger Audio File validation using the fork

and one final note
remember MIME validation issues can also be browser, server or client specific

Anyhow hope it helps
