I followed the video installation and created an mp3 content type

The mp3 file plays fine in my Quicktime default player in the browser http://netsperience.org/sites/default/files/mp3/Mushrooms.mp3

But the sound breaks up in the mp3 Player http://netsperience.org/content/mushrooms

Adobe Flash only likes audio with a 44.1kHz sample rate. Otherwise you will experience issues. Try re-encoding your audio and let me know if you still have issues.

thank you, re-encoding at 44.1KHz fixed it - I also changed sample format from 32-bit float to 16 bit

I thought exporting to mp3 in Audacity would automatically resample at 44.1KHz - but I was wrong...

BTW since the OP I changed URL aliases the mp3 node is now at http://netsperience.org/content/mp3/mushrooms

Question - is there an easy way to build a node with multiple mp3 players embedded?

I suppose we would use the print theme code:

<?php print theme('mp3player', 'Default', $audio_file_url, $audio_title, $audio_artist, $description); ?>

great, re-encoding to 44.1 KHz worked fine, even without always changing it to 16 bit format

here is my page with the entire one hour tape and 15 individual tracks

Yeah it's easy to do a node with multiple players just set the filefield to have multiple values, but I assume you figured that out.

Great :)

no, actually I used the print theme code for all the files and I uploaded them by ftp

but that way I was able to embed a 55.5MB one hour long mp3 without dealing with PHP upload limits

I also added the duration for each file to the description

I thought about trying multiple values, but this worked fine for me, for 16 files.
