Hi I’m brand new to textfugu and yesterday downloaded Anki, it all worked fine great in fact but when I’ve gone to go on it today i’ve got no sound working with the cards. I’ve looked all over the forums and made sure I had an update version, installed plugins, restarted my computer but nothing seems to get it working, anyone got any ideas?
July 24, 2012 at 3:38 pm #33539Did you definitely import the decks instead of adding? Have you made sure the media folders contain audio files and that they are in the same directory as the .anki files under “My Documents” on the C: Drive or whatever your main drive is with a user profile?
July 24, 2012 at 4:15 pm #33542go to anki problems thread please ^^
April 23, 2013 at 12:08 pm #39715Hope someone can help me. I am new here and am having problems getting the audio to work with Anki. I’m sorry I am not very computer literate and so I ask your indulgence, as well, as patience. I assume I need the Japanese support plug in in order to hear anything but have no idea how/where to get it. I’m sorry to say but, I guess I need extremely explicit directions (really embarassed about this but…). If I click on “file” on the Anki app on my PC I only get “import,” “export,” etc. I can see the flashcards fine but have no audio. Can someone please tell me what I have done wrong/failed to do? Really appreciate any help you can give me.
April 24, 2013 at 2:31 am #39729Right, you need to write a shell script to re-hash Anki’s hash tables, which will allow you to reconfigure the necessary overlayer configuration environment variables. After that, you have to lock on to Anki’s website, hack into its mainframe, and then build a Visual Basic GUI to track their IP address; you should end up getting a virtual page file dump that will contain extra RAM, the type you actually need to run audio in Anki. At that point, you just doodah the flibbertigibbets, turn the flux capacitor up to 11 and shout “Geronimooooo!”. Voilá, working sound in Anki :)
Wait, I think that was just a dream I had once…
(Sorry, I’ve no idea about Anki 2, I just felt like being obtuse :P Maybe one of these other fine ladies or gentlemen will be able to help you)

hope this helps
April 24, 2013 at 12:07 pm #39737Thanks so much @Rucifer & Ellen. I’m sorry I won’t be able to try out your solution until the weekend. I really appreciate the screen caps (I hope you didn’t make them just for me, as that’s too much trouble, I think). I will defo get back to you when I have tried it out and let you know. Thanks again so, so much.

Thanks so much for your help. Problem solved!
April 25, 2013 at 5:38 pm #39766Thanks so much, thisiskyle! Kinda weird how the media folder moved. None of my audio files from the old anki were copied to the “collection” folder. Once I moved them all there, like that google doc says, the audio played fine in Anki.
I’m glad too, because I’ve almost spent an hour trying to work this stuff out. As a wise woman once said, “Ain’t nobody got time for that!“
