Default embedding wav and midi files in OE

See if this is the fix.

The volume setting ranges from -10000 to 0 with -10000 being off and 0 being
full volume.

Before you insert the background sound you need to make sure your volume
setting is correct. Double click the speaker icon by the clock. For a MIDI
file it will use the volume control labeled "SW Synth" or something similar.
It may vary depending on your sound card.

You can check your settings by clicking the Source Tab at the bottom of the
Compose Message window and looking for this tag BGSOUND balance=0
src="filepath to soundfile" and setting the volume to zero (0).

If not already there, View | Source Edit - Check it.

After downloading IE7, OE 6 no longer codes the embedded wav or midi files
properly. It only shows the path to the file.

I have an older email I have opened and copied the code of an embedded
file,
what can be done to correct this since upgrading to IE7?

Saved email: cid for background sound:

DIV /DIVBGSOUND balance=0
src="cid:003101c72849$6649ba60$6400a8c0@ezpc" volume=-600


Now it shows just the path:

src="C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\Midi\Fire-mountain.mid"
volume=-600
