Click on mp3 symbol, new window opens with player, but nothing plays! It's as if it doesn't download to the player.

I've had the same problem with MP3's Mike, and I'm a PC user. Can save them to target and subsequently play from a folder, but can't open them direct from site.

Opens up WMP, but then nothing happens. Also seems to stall WMP for playing all MP3's I have saved to file thereafter, and I have to reset it as a default to get round the problem.

Yeah I'm having problems...no suprises there!

I'm using osx/explorer on a G4 Music files bomb out before they start

Have also had problems with other sites.

These days I just accept it!

Owning a mac is always going to be a trade off.

Only problem seems to be on here, altho' soundfiles included in posts work fine!

No probs with osX on KTFaudio site or soulclub jukebox, just drag the title to your desktop and in a minute or less its there! Look for a program (free) called audio hijack it converts realplayer files to mp3 for your iTunes.

ta for replies, all extremely helpfull

mp3s in gallery

hopefully solved problem with mac and scripting better so pc doesnt have probs

but as always with this sorta crap - dont know till you tell us

(works ok this end on msie 6, with wma and firefox,with quicktime plug in)

boring stuff

problem with the setup for mac was that found out that mac version for windows media player only plays wma/wmv clips - so as was asking it to play mp3s it wouldnt work ...derrrr

set up now so should now open default browser mp3 player on macs??

not sure why/how it messes up your pc setup Alison, but have changed script to a more offical version , so hopefully it solved it ???

real audio, quicktime, wmv, wma's in gallery should all work ok

hopefully solved the problem with mp3 format in gallery, idea behind way it is setup is so that all sounds in all formats stream and avail to all

a mp3 format that is long enough to test the streaming but not too long is here

as always let us know if problems

trying to get this finally nailed down , so all feedback appreciated

To download the files to your desktop (or anywhere):

When they start playing, the right hand end of the Quicktime plug in bar should have a downward pointing triangle. Give it a few seconds and click on said triangle - a menu should come up including the option "Save As Quick Time Movie" - this will allow you to download the file, it will have the extention .mov tho', so you'll need to rename it to .mp3 if you want to import it into iTunes.

Hope this helps

I still have to save them to file before playing them Mike - but I doubt that its an SS problem - more likely something to do with my firewall.

Not a big deal mate - so don't worry about it.

I can't play the sounds now Mike. Keeps asking me for Apple Quick Time update then says it's not available.

Never had a problem with this before, soundfile opened upon the page opening previously.

https://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/ should sort you out, fingers crossed

just when you thought......

what browser you using Chalkie as you once said using avant

way it should work is if browser msie and have win media player vers 7 it should play it via that

if using something else - it should play it with browsers default mp3 player

sounds like it is doing this with yours ??

as theres no reference to quicktime this end, so has to be coming from your end ??

still scratching me head on it all so bear with us, and hopefully get a 100% way

Using firefox now Mike.

Use firefox as main browser nowadays meself nowadays, only bother with ie for testing or when have to

works ok here, with quicktime

maybe the qt version you using ??

dug a bit and one version of quicktime alternative had probs but says latest hasnt

link here

https://www.free-codecs.com/download/QuickT...Alternative.htm

havent used this but as going by below seems usefull for firefox users

and maybe for msie as well - added it

QuickTime Alternative will allow you to play QuickTime files (.mov, .qt and other extensions) without having to install the official QuickTime Player. It also supports QuickTime content that is embedded in webpages.

Download

As a bonus, Internet Explorer will play all QuickTime movies that are embedded in a webpage. You do need a media player that is capable of playing QuickTime files. The included Media Player Classic supports it and works very well. The QuickTime Browser plugin supports Internet Explorer, Opera, Netscape and Mozilla. The QuickTime plugins include iPIX and QuickTimeVR.

Features of QuickTime Alternative 1.40 :

- Media Player Classic [version 6.4.8.2]

- QuickTime Codecs [version 6.5.2.10]

- QuickTime DirectShow filter

- QuickTime plugin for Internet Explorer

- QuickTime plugin for Opera/Mozilla/Netscape

- QuickTime Control Panel

- Extra plugins for QuickTime

Changes from QuickTime Alternative 1.39 to QuickTime Alternative 1.40 :

- Fixed problem with Ir50_qc.dll.

Not really! Menu comes up but options to save are 'greyed out' ie not active!

Any suggestions???

installed quick time and the alternative, getting same missing plugin message as before, installed that too and still not working.

Can't we have the option to save target as? can download and listen then.

Sorted eventually. Would sooner use Jet Audio though as only player.

just wacked up a flash player instead of the generic player

so.....

if got windows media vers 7+ it play using that

if not the it plays using flash

having a look later at it all

main things after is streaming and avail to as many as possible (browsers/os/media players) with no hassle

will have to have a look at how that jet thing streams
