HTML5 Audio - How To Play Shoutcast streams
in [JavaScript]
|
From: lukas on 2 Mar 2010 07:42 Hello, I have a problem with the HTML5-Audio-Tag. While it plays mp3 files without a problem, I cannot get it to play shoutcast streams. Consider this URL: http://89.149.227.111:8050 For my VLC-Player this is a music stream. However, for the browser its a HTML-Page showing some info about the stream. Does anyone have an idea how to get the audio into the browser? Perhaps by opening some sort of JavaScript-Stream object? My aim is to build a streaming html5 audio player without using Flash. Regards Lukas.
