Thread: Audio question

Hi all,

I am adding some audio to my sites using windows media, but there are quite a few options, like plug ins, real player etc. Is there a best way to add the audio or are these options equally as valid? I am presuming that windows would be the easiet for most to use on their systems. Should I use a couple to ensure that every one can access the audio? Any advice very welcome and thanks in advance.

Most everyone has windows media, which will open via this method or real player if they have that as well, dependent on their own computers preferences ... I think you are okay with what you have done ....

You might want to check out Website Audio for Newbies. You can choose from a range of different buttons and have Talking webpage as well...........

Hi.. I've always found Media Player and Quicktime to be the best.. Utilizing a variety of Players creates extra work setting up defaults settings and assigning different file types to different players on my own computer.. Doug

thanks for all your advice,

all the best
