Audio embed shortcode not working (ver. 2.2.2)

@jeremy Herve, earlier you said:

It’s also worth noting that the Audio shortcode will be deprecated once WordPress 3.6 is out, since it will include an Audio shortcode (#23282).

Will the current shortcode in posts still play audio if a blog is updated to 3.6?

@jeremy Herve: many thanks for the clarification and all your help.

fwiw, Jetpack 2.2.2 audio shorcode works perfectly on my sites: ex 1, ex 2.

Thanks.

Will the current shortcode in posts still play audio if a blog is updated to 3.6?

Rest assured, we’ll make sure that Jetpack is fully compatible with 3.6.

@jeremy Herve, thanks for the reassurance ??

I’m having the same problem with audio in version 2.2.2, https://streetdose.com/new-music-nicki-minaj-feat-lil-wayne-high-school-2/

Is there any fix? Please help. Thanks.

@anthonyon The player seems to work properly on my end in Chrome and Safari
https://i.wpne.ws/OEJZ

However, as @renatorm reported earlier, you will experience issues in Firefox.

We’re working on that problem, and I will post again here once we can solve the issue.

Here is the situation today:

• Chrome natively supports: .mp3, .m4a, .wav, and .ogg.
• Safari natively supports: .mp3, .m4a, .wav, but not .ogg (which will display a download link).
• Firefox natively supports: .wav and .ogg, but not .mp3 and .m4a (which will both display a download link).
• Opera natively supports: .wav and .ogg, but not .mp3 and .m4a (which will both display a download link).
• Internet Explorer natively supports: .mp3, but not .m4a, .wav, and .ogg (which will all display a download link).

What formats a browser chooses to natively support is entirely up to the browser’s developers, we have no control over that.

Until last week, we have given the Flash audio player precedence, fallen back to the browser’s native player when Flash isn’t available, and then fallen back to the Download link when the format is not supported by the browser.

With the Flash player disabled, we are giving the browser’s native player precedence and falling back to the Download link when the format is not supported by the browser.

Whether it’s via an embedded player or a Download link, all of your viewers will be able to play the audio files.

Thanks for the reply Jeremy. It all seemed to work fine until the recent Jetpack 2.2.2 update. On my end it doesn’t work in any browser (FF, IE, chrome or safari). I’m running Windows 7 (Home) with Flash 11.

Hello,

We appear to be having a similar issue on the following URL:

https://positivelygoodforyou.com/

Underneath “As tasted on BBC Radio” is where it should display.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated. Worked with no problem up until 2.2.1 and since has broken. Currently on version 2.2.2 and still nothing.

Thanks.

Hello,
current version of Jetpack (2.2.5) works fine for me in Firefox as well as in Opera, Chrome and IE.
This issue has been fixed.
Thank you very much.

Best regards,

Audio shortcodes are not working for me with version 2.2.5: https://newenglandsocialmedia.com/podcast-episode-41-le-select-bistro-in-toronto/

Any suggestions?

@seth The Audio player seems to work on your site. I assume you’ve managed to solve the issue by yourself?

Yes. There was a conflict with the Root Relative URLs plugin: https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/root-relative-urls/

I discovered it because it was also messing with the Carousel galleries. I deactivated that and the audio seems to be working now. Thanks!

I have similar problems but mine is a bit different, i run a music blog, and the theme has shortcode for audio player but i realized switching themes would be hectic so i just put the songs in the post directly, it is rendering quite alright but not playing…

Take a look at this post, the audio player up is the one from the theme’s shortcode which plays fine, but the one beneath is the audio player embedded in the post which does not play
