Problems importing sound from mp3 file

I am trying to import a song from an mp3 file into scratch using the Import option on the Sound tab. After attempting to import an mp3 song from my computer (tried both itunes library as well as Desktop), the file size says "0 kb" after downloading, and of course, nothing plays when attempting to play imported sound. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Re: Problems importing sound from mp3 file

I could be wrong, but I thought only WAV files worked with Scratch?

I'm pretty sure there are many more sounds/music file other than .WAV I've imported .mp3 before, though I haven't ever really had this problem, so I'm not sure.

Re: Problems importing sound from mp3 file

even though the guide says mp3's can be imported, I have not been able to do so. I converted the mp3 file to wav and it worked just fine.
