[SOLVED]How do I play music (mp3) from an URL

Hi

I simply want to know how i can play an music (mp3) from a URL stored in an variable instead of my project files ?

Thank in advance for your response ^^

Try This:

Create a global variable called URL, set it to text, and leave the value blank

Global text URL = ""

System> On start of layout > System > Set URL to "http://www.whatever.com/your_music.mp4"

System> On start of layout > Audio > Play "http://www.whatever.com/your_music.mp4"

__________________________________or

Use Play (by name)

and put the following in the name and tag fields:

"http://www.whatever.com/your_music.mp4"

I didn't test this

Hope this or some variation of this helps....

Thank you, but it doesn't work :/

I think it's because the audio plugin search on the "Sounds" or "Musics" folder on the local project, but i don't need the effects of the audio object give to me.

I just need to Play/Pause mp3 from an url, if i can use javascript or wathever like this and don't use the audio object, it's not a problem for me ^^

Thank for your futur help

I just up this post ^^

Thank for any future helper(s)

up please ^^

well, you can use the iframe plugin. (search forum)

And then use the "soundcloud embed" feature on soundcloud in your iframe to play/stream big remote audio files.

Thats what i do, anyway.

plugin name:

HTML_iFrame_Pode

The url to set ind the iframe:

"https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=LINK_TO_AUDIO_FILE_ON_SOUNDCLOUD_HERE&color=ff6600&auto_play=true&show_artwork=false"

Why you shouldn't use MP3 in your HTML5 games

Basically, there's no HTML5 way to read a MP3 file. So unless you're going through some kind of flash player, which may not be installed on every computers, you'll likely have different results from a computer to another.

I will try the iframe method, thanks ^^

Thanks, i use the div plugin with this code -->

<audio controls>

<source src='yoursourcehere.mp3 type='audio/mpeg'>

Your browser does not support the audio control.
