audio

I have some media (Audio tracks) on an app...

With file path 'R.raw.test'

I use some code to get it into a mediaplayer...

MediaPlayer.create(Textbox.this, R.raw.fly);

And it works PERFECTLY on the Android Emulator... (Plays track on click of button)

Can someone explain why, when I put it on my Archos (5 IT) it doesnt work at all?

-As soon as the button is clicked, it crashes...

Do you have to do something to file paths or what?

Please help...

Thanks alot...

James
