Audio player not working, only buffering
-
Trying to embed an audio player in my post. I purchased additional storage and inserted the standard audio player via the following html [audio and the http://%5D however, it is not working. It shows up and says buffering and doesn’t play anything. Can anyone please help? Thank you.

Have you double-checked that the link to the MP3 is not a live link, ie underlined and blue? What is the EXACT code you are using?
-
I appreciate your response, thank you! It’s not a live link. I uploaded an mp3 to the WordPress storage, clicked the None button for Link URL and then clicked the Insert into Post button. It showed up but only buffers and doesn’t actually play the audio.

I’ve had the SAME problem. Did exactly what I thought I was supposed to do, which is exactly what you did. Hope you find a solution cause I could use some help myself!

How can we find a solution? Can we contact anyone directly? I might try to use SoundCloud or a different audio player but I actually like the way the simple, grey audio player looks.

Well, you have to Unlink the link by putting your cursor on it and hitting the Unlink button, and you have to put the closing square bracket in ]

Thank you. I really appreciate you taking the time. Tried it and it’s still only buffering unfortunately. Thank you though!

The wordpress audio player only works with MP3 files. The file you are using is M4A. You have to convert it to an MP3.
See third bullet point here: http://en.support.wordpress.com/audio/#additional-info

I’m so frustrated. I don’t know how to make it work? I tried with an mp3. I tried with different audio players. I tried unlinking. Any other ideas? Thank you…
