Increase max length of uploaded sound files to be more than 2 minutes

Same with Twitch. I think it’s even less time with them, I think two minutes before they mute the upload.

How about 3 robux per 2 seconds?

(so a 2 minute audio would be 180 robux, but a 5 second audio would be just 6 robux)

FMOD eh? I didn’t know that. In that case I would love more exposure of the audio API and sequencer format support.

@ProfBeetle On the subject of exposing more audio API, can we possibly have APIs for measuring the active amplitude and frequency of a playing sound?
I really want to make a DJing game, with lights that try to behave in rhythm with the music.

I’d rather have a set of limited events (e.g. at-time-position) that can invoke a set of limited functions (e.g. set-time-position), handled exclusively by the sound engine. The lua scheduler is way too slow for things like seamless loop points.

I would say 50 roblox for every minute, with a minimum of 25 robux.

In my experience if you aren’t using top 40 music, YouTube doesn’t care.

Yes please.

That and making sounds cost a lot less, I feel like the quality of roblox games would rise exponentially

Don’t want to go too far off-topic so I’ll stop at this post, but as a content creator you can submit your work through the Content ID programme and it will automatically be identified in all new uploads from that point onwards, after which a takedown notice can be either sent manually or automatically. Even obscure soundtrack or video clips from old games or movies can trigger it if the content creator/licenser submitted it to the programme, not just the top 40 of music, there’s actually a huge collection of work that is actively being filtered.

People tried to get around the filter by flipping the image or slightly changing the pitch of the music, but the filter can now even detect that, so apparently YouTube does see it as their job to prevent copyrighted tracks or video clips being used on their site.

@buildthomas Regardless of whether ROBLOX needs to actively protect copyright or not, it’d be silly to discard such a useful feature for that reason. If copyright needs to be upheld to a serious degree, then an appropriate way of detecting and moderating copyrighted material needs to be developed – not the disposal of a useful feature. People can already upload multiple audio assets to stitch together a full copyrighted clip, so trashing a feature which doesn’t even worsen the problem (it’s already a problem) is bonkers.

I fully agree that this feature should happen, I was just replying to Shedletsky’s sub-topic, sorry.

2 minutes is too low for most audio that I want to upload myself as well.

Bumping this! I know that it was raised to seven, but that’s kinda short now considering some APM music is literally seventeen minutes long!
