Hello REIA,
You are using what looks like the default WP player that is using Media Element JS, which is probably causing this compatibility issue with our player. I recommend switching to FV Player’s own audio mode. As you can see in this demo, the player can play audio efficiently and will also switch to your corporate colours, which you have set for your other videos.
Thanks,
EduardHi Eduard. With “Enable audio playback” on the FV Player player does work. And the default WP player using just a normal .mp3 link plays like this:
http://example.com/audio.mp3 or
[audio mp3="http://example.com/audio.mp3"]HOWEVER the default WP player has that volume bar messed up. When I disable FV Player the problem goes away.
And unfortunately we can’t go through the entire to switch all audios over to FV Player.
Any ideas?
Best Wishes.Hello,
I noticed that you are already using FV Player for audio on the homepage of http://indianareia.com/. If you are using the [audio mp3="http://example.com/audio.mp3"] shortcodes for the MP3s in default WP player, then you can replace the shortcode with a search and replace function (we usually use plugin called Search Regex for that).
The formatting is a bit similar, all it would take would be replacing the string
[audio mp3
with[fvplayer src
Thanks,
EduardH Eduard.. Same happens with video. Once this plugin is activated the default WordPress video player timeline doesn’t work correctly. When I disable this plugin, the default player starts to act normal again.
I know I can change all current video tags to [fvplayer] but there’s a major drawblack – this player doesn’t show thumbnail (or at least first frame) from the video automatically like the original WP player does. It’s annoying to create a thumbnail for each video manually. :(
What’s Your advice?
Thanks,
TomsHi Toms,
I wasn’t able to replicate this issue on our test site, which is running on one of the default WP themes (Twenty Fourteen). Could you please test the setting with WP default player and active FV Player with one of the default themes?
As for the auto-thumbnail, this is actually a feature we are working on, although I can’t give you an exact time estimate on when it will be released.
Thanks,
Eduard
