VN Music Disappeared or 'Invalid Audio'
Workaround available Android, iOS Updated October 21, 2026
Quick answer
If music vanishes from a VN project or shows 'invalid audio', the file usually moved or is in an unsupported format. Keep the original file on the device and use MP3, WAV or AAC.
Most likely fix: Keep music files on the device.
Symptoms
Music added from your library is missing when you reopen a saved project, or importing a song shows an invalid audio error.
Why it happens
- Original audio file deleted, moved or streamed rather than saved locally
- Unsupported format such as WMA or FLAC
- Music app files not accessible to VN
How to fix it
Try these in order — the most common fix is first.
1. Keep music files on the device
- Save songs as files on the phone instead of streaming them
- Don't move or delete the original after adding it
2. Convert to a supported format
- Convert the file to MP3, WAV or AAC and import it again
3. Re-add the music
- Open the project, add the track again and line it up with the waveform
4. Update VN
- Install the latest version; music-related crashes were fixed through updates for some users
