Audio on Android 2.2 try to use Flash player

[michel memeteau]

Hi I know that <audio> on android 2.2 is broken and that you have to call the js play function manually , but you seem to handle it right in your js code. 

However when I open http://www.radiogalere.org/ecoute/index.html  on Android 2.2 , it tries to use the flash player , which is not installed instead of trying to play the Ogg or mp3 stream with HTML5 .

Do you confirm this ?

Unfortunately, I don't currently have access to an Android 2.2 device, so I can neither confirm nor deny your issue!

Can your device play the audio file on http://html5media.info ?

Best,

Dave.

I do , any way to activate a debug mode on your JS script in order to get some traces ?

 

Can your device play the audio file on http://html5media.info ?

No, same problem as my page, it tries to use the flash player.

The thing to do would be to get a hold of the code from GitHub, and have a poke.

https://github.com/etianen/html5media

You can get all the uncompiled source code there.

In general, though, html5media is pretty simple. It asks the browser if it can play the file, and if it says it can't, it pulls in the flash player. Old android is pretty bad at getting the answer to "can you play this file" wrong.
