If you noticed, in my last post I had added ready to play demos through del.icio.us streaming script, which it’s really simple, you only have to copy the code below and place it in anywhere you want in your HTML and your mp3 links will automatically become playable.
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://del.icio.us/js/playtagger"></script>
Then you have something like this: Elvis harmonized
There are many other options like odeo players with different sizes and also ready to embed where you want… Indeed, this google player (flash based) should work too:
<iframe style="border: 1px solid rgb(170, 170, 170); width: 500px; height: 25px;" id="musicPlayer"
src="http://mail.google.com/mail/html/audio.swf?audioUrl=URLMP3FILE MP3"></iframe>
But all those implementations only work with mp3 files and aren’t free software…, and that was annoying me a little (check this) so I was looking for ogg vorbis alternatives… and luckily I found one: Cortado.
It’s a Java applet from Fluendo which is able to play Ogg Theora, Ogg Vorbis, Mulaw audio, MJPEG and his own Smoke codec. It’s also free software and it’s released under GPL. As I read only works with SUN’s jre version… so isn’t completely free either… but I think is closer and I can choose ogg files again… btw, SUN java version should (or at least they say that) be GPL compatible very soon…
The bad thing: has poorly documentation (and not clear)… anyway I managed to get it working. I’ve downloaded the ogg vorbis last pre-compiled jar file and with an applet code like below, I get it working more or less quickly.
<applet archive="cortado-ovt.jar" code="com.fluendo.player.Cortado.class" width="320" height="20">
<param name="url" value="http://audiores.uint8.com.ar/files/audios/elvis-harmonized.ogg" />
<param name="local" value="false" />
<param name="framerate" value="5.0" />
<param name="keepaspect" value="true" />
<param name="video" value="false" />
<param name="audio" value="true" />
<param name="seekable" value="true" />
<param name="autoPlay" value="false" />
<param name="duration" value="203" /></applet>
Then you have something like this:
enjoy!
Update: For many applets in the same page check this post: “Many files to stream with cortado in the same page”

Español:
Hace un par de semanas descubrí este podcast sobre audio: “Sine Language“, me pareció excelente.
En él, Bruce Williams, habla sobre todos los aspectos del audio, acústica y post producción, elección de micrófonos y auriculares, home theatre, audio en móbiles, etc.
Es una opción muy interesante para los que nos gustan estos temas ya que no hay mucho material de este tipo (si conocen más avisen!). Para escuchar mientras uno trabaja, viaja o simplemente para sentarse a escuchar.

Pair of weeks ago i’ve discovered this podcast about audio “Sine Language“, it seemed to me excellent, there Bruce Williams, discusses all things related to audio and acoustics theory, or audio post production techniques, headphone and microphone selection, home theatre, mobile audio, whatever.
