Has anyone been able to embed and play a local .mp3 file through any of the plugins. The option to embed a local file doesn't seem to be exist anymore, yet only streaming via URL is the option. Any help would be great. Thx. IOS RELATED QUESTION Title Comments Has anyone been able to embed and play a local .mp3 file through any of the plugins.

GoNorthWest buzztouch Evangelist Posts: 8197 Reg: Jun 24, 2011 Oro Valley, AZ 1,000,000	06/19/13 02:09 PM (10 years ago) I'm looking to do the same thing as well, preferably from an HTML screen. I tried the HTML5 <audio> tag, but that appears to not work in the UIwebView for Apple...I haven't tried it with Android. What I would like is a list of quotes that have an audio component to them, and the person can hit the link and hear the quote. Any ideas?

I just tested this and put some files on my server. If you include these it should work faster. file 1 (the javascript): https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3427464/Mark/BTA_BlogPro_Default_audio.min.js file 2 (the player images): https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3427464/Mark/player-graphics.gif make sure they are in your project. The custom html code could look like this: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <title></title> <meta content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" http-equiv="Content-Type" /> <meta content="width=device-width; initial-scale=1.0; maximum-scale=2.0; user-scalable=1;" name="viewport" /> <script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js" ></script> <script src="BTA_BlogPro_Default_audio.min.js"></script> <style type="text/css"> html{background-color:transparent;height:100%;width:100%;} body{background-color:transparent;font-size:11pt;font-family:helvetica;} img{border:0px;} </style> <script> audiojs.events.ready(function() { var as = audiojs.createAll(); }); </script> </head> <body> <div class="audioselfcontainer"> <div class="audioself"> <audio id="player" name="player" src="yourmp3.mp3" preload="metadata"> </audio> </div> </div> <div>test audio</div> </body> </html> Hope this gives you a start.

So many, in fact, that I just don't have time to ask them all! Your code works perfectly...thanks! I'll play around with it a bit and see if I can pretty up the page, but right now it does what I need. Odd thing...I tried it using FireFox, and it didn't work (the controls showed, but the audio never loaded). However, when I tried it in a test app, no issues! Thanks, Danny!

You help so many people, and from what I see, almost never ask questions for yourself. Great!! Had the same problem with firefox. Don't know why....... Best Regards, Danny PS. For faster loading you should also download jquery and import it in your project (make sure you reference right) Comments Hi Mark, Glad I could help YOU out.

I will absolutely include the jquery and audio files in the project to speed things up. Glad the solution was so easy! Could be a good plugin! Thanks again!
