  Hello,

  I’m trying to change the background of my audio player to be transparent but haven’t figured out how. An example of this problem is on this post: http://mattnielsen.com/2011/02/28/full-recording-of-in-paradisum/

  This is the code I used:

  [audio http://mattnielsen.files.wordpress.com/2011/02/in-paradisum-master.mp3|initialvolume=100|bgcolor=transparent]

  So the background is green instead of transparent. Any idea how to fix this? Any help would be great!

  Thanks!
  Matt

  The bgcolor option accepts hex color codes only, not other words. The right option would be transparentpagebg=yes, but the wp.com version of the player doesn’t support that.

  Way around the problem:
  [audio URL|initialvolume=100|animation=no]

  Or use the Soundcloud player instead.

  Or create a playlist in Mixpod and use one of the Mixpod players:
