Today, July 6, 2014, at the 10th minute, of the 10th hour, Little Composers, for the first time in history, functioned as expected, for those earthlings who, for what ever reason, use Internet Explorer! CNN, Global TV and SHAW Cable will broadcast the event on the evening news tonight. But remember. You read it here first! Life is good!

Thank you for posting that link!

I have become VERY familiar with it because somewhere in there lingers that one little word which just might fix my problem.

To have others look at what might be the issue, I am posting the "relevant" lines here BUT I am checking each line which you have written in the Manual (MIME types for HTML5 games)

System MIME Types

01 text/html : .shtml .shtml .shtml .shtml html htm shtml

02 application/javascript : js

03 audio/ogg : oga ogg spx

04 video/webm : webm ?? > C2 manual states ".webm"

05 video/mp4 : mp4 mp4v mpg4 (no dot!)

06 text/csv : csv (no dot)

07 application/json : json (no dot)

08 image/svg+xml : svg svgz

09 application/pdf : pds (no dot)

10 application/octet-stream : bin dms lha lrf lzh so iso dmg dist distz pkg bpk dump elc deploy

User Defined MIME Types

21 audio/mp4 : .m4a m4a (with and without dot)

22 text/cache-manifest : .appcache

23 application/font-woff : .woffe

24 application/x-web-app-manifest+json : .webapp

25 application/manifest+json : .manifest

26 text/xml : .xml

NOT added:

video/ogv

Upon closer examination, I see the some extensions have missing dots.

What I will do now:

Change the URL for a game (make a new dir/subdir and see if it works????)

It would be awesome to get sound working in IE but if the new directory/upload doesn't fix it I will talk to a new host, and ask if they can give me a 24 hr test account.

Sound in IE is the last hurdle to be fixed before school starts again.

Thank you,

Absolutely loved it!

I am very impressed with C2!

Because of the scaling and screen sizes, I was hesitant to use 3D artwork for my PRE PiANO app.

But, to my amazement, C2 handles the job beautifully and I am very happy with how this app is shaping up.

A few more tweaks and I will submit it to Google Play and iTunes.

Tested with Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and iPad Air as well as Firefox and Google Chrome.

Note: The four buttons are not yet functional because ....

I appreciate your feedback and suggestions (my eyes are not what they used to be).

Cheers,

V

App link: http://littlecomposers.com:8080/apps/html5/pre-piano/level-one/index.html

If something else comes up just refresh your browser.

thanks black hornet. I will add one more entry ... but to be honest, I am ready to move on.

With all the apps begin released over the next weeks and months, I should pick up some considerable traffic for http://littlecomposers.com and maybe it's best to upgrade my hosting and find a host which can do what i need.

I really appreciate your advice! <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile">

I was just told by tech support that IE does not support mp4 sound.

So HOW do I fix this?

Alright, it's time to consider plan B!

Thos of you who have sound working in IE, PLEASE post with whom you are hosting.

I am willing to change webhost if I have to.

So??? Is bluehost capable of doing this?

Just for the fun of it, I've added "audio/mp4" with the extension ".m4a"

Now I guess that the server will take some time to update so, I'll test again in a few hours.

It would be amazing if I could get sound in IE!

blackhornet

been there, done that!

(Just to be on the safe side, I double checked ALL required mime types as specified in the manual and they are all there).

I don't know what else I can do?

Hello,

I've added the recommended MIME settings in order to get sound and web storage, application/manifest+json etc. going but my apps still don't produce sound when played online.

The images bellow shows that the entry is there.

My host isn't particularly helpful and more or less insists that the problem has to be solved within my app code.

When tested locally, my apps do function as expected when opened / previewed with IE.

If anyone has some additional info besides what is in the manual, I'd be most grateful to finally fix this last annoyance.

For what it's worth, I'd be willing to move to a new host if I have to (so if your sound works in IE, please tell me who you are hosting with?).

Thanks,

Hi guys,

I use this feature on most of my apps and so far, have not gotten any complaints.

Just to be sure, I will do some more testing this weekend.

I'll post again if I encounter issues.

Stereotypical 90's kids!
