Hello,

Firstly I would like to thank you all for your hard work getting the audio tag to properly work across all browsers.

I am having some troubles getting it to work on Firefox (23.0.1) using a radio stream. I will post the code I am using below.

<!DOCTYPE html>

<head>

<title>ZED4 Radio | Player</title>

</head>

<body>

</body>

</html>

I hope you are able to help me.

Kind Regards,
Grant Williamson

Hi,

How is the radio stream implemented? Is it a static mp3 file, or some sort of on-the-fly endless audio stream.

In Firefox, mp3 files are played via the flash fallback player, rather than natively, which might be the problem, if the flash player doesn't support live streaming.

Best,

Dave.

Little late to the party, but thought I'd share my related research:

flowplayer (the flash fallback) apparently can: http://flash.flowplayer.org/demos/plugins/streaming/audio-live.html

"Jplayer" can apparently do some streaming: http://jplayer.org/latest/demo-08/

Anyway I'll update this space if I figure it out sometime.
