[Pro] MP3 FIle

On this page I have a mp3 file that I want to play on all devices. Unfortunately the .js action goes over the page and it does not look good. I am looking for other solutions on how to keep it the look and it can fit within the page

Well, you can always use the standard HTML5 <audio> feature. While the browser will dictate the final design, it is responsive friendly and your users will appreciate the more native experience.

IIRC, you can simply drag a .mp3 file onto the Freeway document. To make the audio element inline, copy it to your clipboard then double-click where you want it and paste it in.

Will that make it work with all devices though? That is my main concern

Yeppers, as long as you set the width to 100% in the inspector. One of the advantages (IMHO) is that each browser/OS will style the player in a very native way. This means that the player will look radically different on each platform, but the UX will be great.

For example, here it is on a Mac: http://cl.ly/ZMw5

And here it is on iOS: http://cl.ly/ZMxK

I like it! Should I just un-apply the audio.js plugin then?

The only reason to stick with the AudioJS player is if you are concerned that a large percentage of your users are stuck on an older version of Windows. IE 9 and up can play MP3 audio natively in an

I am not overly concerned with that. They can also download the audio as well.

Nevermind, it just wants you to download the file. Which is still fine in my opinion

There’s been an open bug on the Firefox project for this problem since forever. It’s kind of cute – the Firefox people say it’s because there’s a bug in the Mac OS, yet every other browser on that platform has no trouble at all playing MP3. There was a legitimate issue with the format itself, because Firefox goes to religious lengths to avoid patent-encumbered file formats, and MP3 is so encumbered, but they gave up after Ogg failed to become a serious contender, and all other browsers centered on MP3. It plays back fine in Firefox on Windows and Linux, ironically.
