I can't use m4a format in "Bible Studies"? I have an option for m4v video, but that does not help me at all.

When I do add the m4a I receive a {m4aremote popup="true" divid="13"}010409_praiseandworship_partI.m4a{/m4aremote} error in joomla.

I do not want to play the file, I want just a download link. Like you happen to have for the m4v format?

since m4a is the preferred format for podcasts, why is there no support for it?

What's the error you receive? This is probably a limitation of All Videos Reloaded. Or - the path to the media file is not complete. I notice there is no server/folder in front of the url so the web server may not know where to find the file. When you saved that media record in biblestudy, did you put in a server/folder?

You can also add media types - one way is to add a new media image - the other is to add a mime type. The mime-types are used for podcasts mainly.

The error shows up on the front end, bible study page. The main problem is that I do not associate the file with All Videos Reloaded. I leave that section blank because I do not want the file to be played. That is why I have an mp3 to be played.

Yes, I did add a new mime type. But I do not want this file to be playable online. This is specifically for download purposes.
