Any free way to do this? (audio play button)

4 replies
I want to put an audio file on a site -- I need a way to put the button (+ skin?) on the site. Is there a free way to accomplish that?

Thanks.

    You can use Google Reader's MP3 player. The player has volume controls, you can use it on any site, and it doesn't have any Google branding on it.

    First, upload the audio file (MP3). Then paste the code below into your HTML (replace the "MP3_URL" with the actual URL of your audio file) and that's it.

    Code:
    <embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.google.com/reader/ui/3247397568-audio-player.swf?audioUrl=MP3_URL" width="400" height="27" allowscriptaccess="never" quality="best" bgcolor="#ffffff" wmode="window" flashvars="playerMode=embedded" />
    You end up with an audio player like this one:

    If you're using Wordpress, the WPAudioPlayer.com plug-in works great.

    Worked like a charm!! Thanks!!

    Also, I found out the files DID upload ok -- the warning page that said they didn't was inaccurate + I'll just ignore it + plow forward.

    Thanks again!!
