Anyone know if I can upload a sound file to the repair forum? I’ve tried file types wma and mp3 and it won’t let me. anyother types can?

I think the only real way to upload it is to use youtube. You can create an account there, upload the video/audio file, then post a link here. I’ve seen others do it, but I’ve not done it myself. Youtube should give you an embed URL, and you can use that to put the video itself in-line with the discussion, or a regular link so people have to follow the link over to youtube to watch it.
