Use Audio-Stream instead of self hosted MP3 #32
Description
Actually we deploy the budapest.mp3 to our gh-pages branch and play it using HTML5 audio player.
It would be more elegant to simply stream the audio files hosted at soundcloud while still delivering a custom HTML5 audio player (instead of using the default embedded soundcloud player), maybe just as it is actually implemented. Or we use an additional playlist widget. The playlist cloud then be edited/changed within soundcloud instead of in source code ...
Benefits:
- More secure (audio hosted on soundcloud)
- More easy playlist management (just soundcloud)
- Less data to load on our page
To clarify:
- How to stream audio from soundcloud even if files are privat (maybe token based streaming)
- Use soundcloud API direct or some other access API like soundcloud-audio.js
As example I found the following request play-soundcloud-stream-uri-in-html-5-mp3-player-audio-js
