I am in the process of switching an old Blogspot blog to Wordpress, but when I load a Google Mp3 Player, it won't play in Chrome.

(Plays fine in IE and Firefox).

Here's the relevant link Audio |

Thanks!

    The audio plays fine. Clear your cache, maybe this will help you.

      Thanks much, but I just tried that and my player still won't play in Chrome. Strange.

      I'm away from home now, so don't know the Chrome version. I did, however, try to look it up this morning, and only remember it saying something like, "you have the latest version" (whatever that is).

      As to my OS, it's Windows 7.

      I'm writing from a public library computer, but it doesn't have Chrome to test on.

    Okay, I have Win 7 and latest Chrome, too...

    It works for me on my desktop computer, but not on my laptop.

    Maybe you should check it.

    Micheal71 is right and heading in the right direction with the version question.
    Plays fine on my Chrome and on my Dragon (chromium browser).
    Here is a Google forum thread that's similar to your question that was resolved. If your running an older version maybe it will help.

        The audios are not playing for me in Chrome either (latest version, running Windows 7).

        Also, the audio 'download' links aren't working. It appears that WordPress adds unwanted characters to the end of hyperlinks in certain scenarios. I don't use WP, but try Googl'ing...

    Not working on a Mac either, so definitely browser bound, not OS bound.

    If you are working with an HTML5 audio player, you need to provide each audio file in both an MP3 and OGG format for it to work across all browsers. Your player should automatically select the stream that the browser supports.
