I have a map on the page where the geolocation service is set to "watchPosition". When the position is updated, a marker on the map is moved. This is working great.
When I add an audio component to the page and enable "wachPosition", the map works fine but the audio stops working. On android you can start the audio, but the audio will pause when the position is updated, on iOS the audio component never seems to fully load.
Is this a known issue and is there a workaround?
We are not aware of any issues specific to when using the audio element with geolocation. The audio component that we have is just the standard HTML5 audio element. The mobile browser support for this element could be vary in different browsers. Does the audio work if that's the only element on a page?
Everything works as expected when the map is removed, or when "watchPosition" is disabled. I thought it might have had something to do with the javascript I was running on success of geolocation, but I cleared that out, and I am still having the issue. The issue seems to stem from that "watchPosition"
Hello! Perhaps there is some device issue. What device you use to test? Try jplayer instead audio component http://jplayer.org/
I tried it on Android and iOS devices. Also tried jPlayer. Same audio problem with jPlayer that I had with native audio player. jPlayer works as expected as long as I don't have "watchPosition" enabled. Is there an alternative to "watchPosition" that I might try to use?
Hello! There is no alternative unfortunately. Seems to be a bug, we'll report and fix it.
Bummer, I am really loving this app, and I can't wait to hear about this being fixed.
Hello Allan! We're sorry for inconvenience. We'll try to find a workaround, but it might take some time.
Hi Maryna, I'm trying http://jplayer.org/ because I couldn ́t make soundcloud widget work...what I need, is a player, for gym user, I notice that jplayer can be configured as audio live-stream player....I downloaded the zip, and made it works as an audio player...can you guide me on how to configured it as an live-stream player?
thanks =)
