3 and 4 work
ReplyDeleteFirefox och PC and all work just fine!
ReplyDeleteI've got Internet Explorer 8 and Windows Vista. Only number 1 worked for me. Do the others require an add-on of some kind? I've got Windows Media Player and Quicktime.
ReplyDeleteI use Google Reader. #1-4 worked.
ReplyDeleteOn IE 7 (DON'T LAUGH), 1-2 are dead and 3-5 work fine. I can get 1 and 2 working only f I view the page source, scoop out the actual URLs for the media files, and plug them directly into the browser.
ReplyDeleteSafari whose version and OS I cannot disclose. 5 sounded best, 1 & 2 work fine, 4 is fully functional, and I can hear 3 but it looks like crap.
ReplyDeleteim using opera i had no issue with any of them on your blogsite so i decides to test them in google reader and number 5 didnt show
ReplyDeletemy personal preference would be 1 or 2
1 and 2 = not working
ReplyDelete3-5 = work fine
I'm in the Western US btw

ReplyDeleteMac OS X 10.6
ReplyDelete2, 3 and 4 work in the google reader gadget on google chrome (4.0.249.49), 1 and 5 do not. 1 is blank space and 5 is a black bar.
1 also works directly on blogspot in google chrome, but 5 is still just a black bar.
With FIrefox (3.5.5) and Safari (4.0.4) they all work when viewed directly on the blogspot site.

ReplyDeleteFor what it's worth:
ReplyDelete#5 is probably going to be your best option as it is "player agnostic" and the others rely on what version of flash a person has installed - has nothing to do with browser much at all.
My suggestion is to use #5 OR upload your own flash player to maintain consistency. Otherwise, you use one of these external flash players and the URL changes or it goes the way of the dodo - all your links are broken.
Uploading your own it is always there and you can update it (and not all your links!)
1-2 work superb
ReplyDelete3-4 ok (sound is good, display kinda shity)
5, 5? where is the fifth? (there's something but it seems i need to download a plugin).
Firefox on XP, will check firefox on Ubuntu (Linux) at home and let you know.
They all work for me!
ReplyDeleteExcept that the timeline isn't following on 3rd, but I can still hear it.
I'm using Firefox on Mac OS X.
1 & 2 don't work at all; 3 & 4 work but cut out/bad sound; 5 works!

ReplyDeleteAll work- and make my day, every day, multiple times! And since I'm from the US, the "accent" (it is to me!) just makes it even better. Keep 'em coming!

ReplyDeletethanks so very much for fixing the audio issues, much appreciated. i am hooked on this blog. congrats on your honeymoon and i do hope you have a wonderful time.
ReplyDeleteThis is the first time any of them have played for me. It was just a black bar for a long time, then it was the little Quicktime logo that wouldn't play. I'm so glad I finally get to hear these!
ReplyDeleteThis is the first time that I have been able to listen to the audio. The Pirate quote is so much better than I could have EVER imagined. I'm going back to listen again.
