Distrokid songs

i’m not able to play distrokid songs using a boombox in my own game (even if i have the song in my inventory), but it does work with certain distrokid songs in my inventory.
this bug doesn’t happen when i put the song in my game using roblox studio


yup.

Hey @mario213346 , thank you for reporting the issue, we’d be happy to take a look.
Can you please clarify how you are adding tracks to your game/experience??

  • from your post it looks like in the case where things are working, you are using Studio interface, getting the track in Toolbox (creator-store) and dragging/dropping that into your game, and this flow works.
  • in the case where things are not working, can you please clarify how you are adding the tracks to your experience?? or playing them in boombox.
  • since my game has a soundtrack, i sometimes want to change some of the songs and i do it by changing the soundid of the song and it works perfectly fine with distrokid songs
  • i am doing it by using adding a boombox tool to my inventory using the :boombox admin command (i use adonis admin for the admin system) and then putting the id of the song i want to play. i tested it using :music instead of :boombox and the result is still the same

Did you get an update on this? Also having the same issue

I don’t know if Distrokid audios are meant to be given permission (by default) to be used in your experiences.

I have also experienced this. There are two ways to go about this:

  1. Go to your experience’s “Permissions” category and add the Audio ID of the Distrokid audio you’d like to use and press “Save” afterwards.

  2. You can also insert the audio in to your game within Studio and it’ll automatically give permission to it.

The “solutions” above should work as long as you have the audios in your inventory.
