Not able to play music (linux/gnome 3/pulseaudio). about stretto HOT 3 CLOSED

Its based on the audio formats your browser supports. Firefox only allows mp3 if the system library is installed for decoding it. In chrome it just works, and yeah, so it depends on the file format of your music library and the browser you are using. For a format table, look here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Supported_media_formats#Browser_compatibility

So your options are:

• use another browser
• convert your whole library to a format your browser supports or
• add a feature to node-music-player for live transcoding (if a file is not in the format needed, convert it on the fly sending it to the browser and the file system)

OK, now I see why the same version of firefox works out of the box on OSX. The page clearly says that the OS or Hardware can give the support while Firefox itself cannot for patent reasons.

Yeah, so like I could probably provide some shim that uses flash, but I'd much rather not and do the transcoding option.
