I have just downloaded the audio module, and rather than use the 'audio' content type that is created, I would like to add Audio capability to one of my existing Content type's.

I've ticked audio, audio_attach and getid3 in the administer->modules section.
I've ticked all the audio permissions in access control
I've then gone into settings->content types to configure my type, but I can't find anything to enable audio.

Is there something I haven't done? Am I looking in the wrong place?
I've looked in the online documentation and readme.txt/install.txt but can't see if there is something I'm missing, or some pre-requiste I don't have!

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks.

install the attachment.module - this is also dependant on the filemanager.module

after these are enabled you will be able to add attachments to posts, and mp3 ogg wav wmv mpg will be available extensions to do so because of audio.attach

to allow attachments to posts after the depencies are installed.

adminster -> settings -> content types

choose which content types you want to allow attachments by clicking config, then check the necessary permissions.

Thanks for your reply, but I managed to resolve it by a small change in the module, where I think it had an if test the wrong way around... it all seems to work now, without the need for extra modules!

I believe it was dropped in D5 in favor of the new upload.module featues. This thread was originally about D4.7

a look in the audio.module issues queue comes up with http://drupal.org/node/110960. it looks like the work is done or nearly so.

work on the audio_attach and associated modules is being coordinated through the Playlist project page (http://drupal.org/project/playlist). the major issue of interest is http://drupal.org/node/113750, which gives the current status of audio_attach module and other modules covering playlist.module functionality.

I think it'll work with the dev version of the audio module, but I prefer to use the Media Field module. It plays harmoniously with CCK.

There's also a Mediafield Display module.
