MP3 file upload: "The mime type does not match to file extension"

1

Hi all Grav webmasters and developers!

The Grav version is 1.7. Web browser is Mozilla Firefox 89.0 (x64) under Linux Mint.

When I tried to upload MP3 file to my blog page in Admin mode,
I got error "The mime type does not match to file extension"

The solution of the problem is to edit file /system/config/media.yaml:

mp3:
type: audio
thumb: media/thumb-mp3.png
mime: audio/mp3

change to

mp3:
type: audio
thumb: media/thumb-mp3.png
mime: audio/mpeg

And then upload file MP3 again.

Bottom line: the right MIME type for *.MP3 files should be audio/mpeg, not audio/mp3.

@vlad73, Not my field of expertise, but you might be right…

According to MDN on Common MIME types:

Extension Kind of document MIME Type
.mp3 MP3 audio audio/mpeg

You might consider creating an issue to github.com/getgrav/grav
