[solved] If I use songs that are ".OGG" format, will they play correctly on Android and iOS devices?

#1 Post by Nanahs »

There are many songs on my game and they're ".mp3" format. Converting those files to ".ogg" they get smaller (less MB).

But my doubt is: will they (".ogg" songs) work correctly on Android and iOS devices?

Thank you :)

Yes.

As of a few versions ago, Ren'Py bundles the audio player, so the formats it supports are the same across platforms.

The only place where this is an issue is full-screen video, which is platform-specific for speed reasons.
