Any possibility to cache the waveform for faster load?

thanks !

It should be theorically possible as wavesurfer-js can support it but I’m not sure how it could implemented into wordpress. As it may be very complex, I don’t plan to implement this feature any time soon.
Meanwhile, I invite you to leave a review and evaluation here, and to make a donation to support this plugin maintenance ??

Cheers !

Fair enough ??

How about having a fall-back image to display while the waveform is loading?

Or an optional parameter to supply a background image to override the waveform permanently?

Or lazy load for multiple players? Is any of that doable?

Having a fall back image means having a way to generate it, and as you guess, it would be kind of hard/time consuming to implement.

The documenation about wavesurfer-js pre rendered peak is a bit minimalist so I can’t do a lot of things about it.

Thanks, I see your point. I shouldn’t have called it the fall-back image, rather a placeholder image to display while the actual waveform is loading.

The placeholder image doesn’t have to match the waveform. It can be a generic looking waveform with a “waveform loading” text across it. Something I could (optionally) supply via general settings to appear on all players.

I’ll try adding some background image to the player’s div via styles for now.

I was able to do what I wanted with CSS, so all good here. Cheers!

Nice !
Good continuation !
