mp3player - issue #9

Progress Bar doesn't track


Posted on Oct 15, 2008 by Helpful Kangaroo

What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Point the player to any MP3 other than another_world.mp3 2. Problem even occurs on the Flash-MP3-Player.net's configurator 3. use this MP3: http://www.foodguyandmarcy.com/snacks/snack15.mp3

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

MP3 plays fine but the progress bar doesn't move while playing the file, it stays stuck on the left hand side

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Occurs on all Browsers except Firefox Tested Win/IE7, Win/Safari, Win/Chrome, Win/Firefox, MacOSX/Safari, MacOSX/Firefox

Please provide any additional information below.

Simple substitution of the test MP3 at http://flash-mp3-player.net/players/maxi/generator/ demonstrates the problem. Problem with Mini, Normal, Maxi and Multi players

The problem can be caused by the server not sending a Content-Length header with the audio/mp3 stream.

I can confirm the Content-Length header tip, I had this problem and sending the header solved it.

Maybe this should not be marked as a bug.

I discovered that the problem is caused by this htaccess file:

mod_rewrite in use

RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /home

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^(home/component/option,com) [NC,OR] RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php

How con I fix it in order to show the progress bar?

Adding the following in the .htaccess-file solved the problem for me.

SetOutputFilter DEFLATE SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI .mp3$ no-gzip dont-vary
