<\/p>\nThe Pro Radio WordPress Theme includes a powerful music player that can play radio streaming sources and static audio files. Is compatible both with MP3 and AAC sources (No HLS support, as is not technically an audio format).<\/p>\n
This player is responsive and can automatically convert into an app-like player on a mobile device.<\/p>\n
The global player options can be changed in QantumThemes Music player, from the left menu bar<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
To enable the waveform, enable “Display audio waveform”.<\/p>\n
There are 2 display options: default (simplified) and precise waveform.<\/p>\n
The peak data is stored in the database. If you reupload an MP3 file, make sure to change the file name, in order to avoid displaying an incorrect waveform.<\/p>\n
For each track, the serialized peak data is stored in a custom post type which is hidden.<\/p>\n
If you need to flush the cached peak data, you can enable the function “Make ‘Audio Peaks Cache’ post type visible in admin menu for maintenance purposes”.

<\/p>\n
Search for the name of the MP3 files<\/strong> in the Peak archive, and delete it. This will force the player to regenerate the peak data. The player can only read the waveform peaks if the MP3 files are in the same domain<\/strong>, or if the external domains allows CORS (Cross Origin Resource Sharing).<\/strong><\/p>\n If a podcast is loaded from a different domain, it is unlikely that the waveform will be generated.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n To customize appearance and settings of the player, you can go to Appearance > Customize\u00a0 > Player Settings<\/p>\n <\/p>\n You can use the player to play:<\/p>\n You can use external sources for podcasts or charts, as Shoutcast or Youtube sources, but they cannot be played inside of the non-stop music player, and the radio stream will not be able to stop while playing them, so we recommend using mp3 sources for every audio of your site, to ensure the best user experience for your visitors.<\/p>\n Player design: choose the position for the player. This doesn’t affect the mobile version.<\/p>\n Show cover in desktop: hide or show the artwork from the player bar<\/p>\n Custom player in podcast contents: if enabled, the default HTML5 player for the embedded audio files will be replaced with a custom player that plays the source through the special player bar.<\/p>\n Customize the colors for the player. By default the colors are inherited by the global customizer color scheme, but you can override specific colors form this section.<\/p>\n Fetch player artworks: display the artwork for the songs of the radio stream. The artworks are obtained from the iTunes archive, for the known albums, and when the radio channel is correctly set to obtain the song titles. If the song titles are not fetched correctly, or the album is not included in the iTunes repository, the radio logo will be used by default.<\/p>\n This section allows to choose specific podcasts to be automatically preloaded in the playlist when opening the website, or how many podcasts to load in chronological order. Only the podcasts using an mp3 source can be used.<\/p>\n Same as with Podcasts, but audio posts can be preloaded.<\/p>\n Add specific tracks to create a custom playlist. Shouldn’t be used to add radio channels.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"ht_kb_category":[624],"ht_kb_tag":[633,680,852],"class_list":["post-7982","ht_kb","type-ht_kb","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","ht_kb_category-theme-customizations","ht_kb_tag-customizations","ht_kb_tag-player","ht_kb_tag-statistics"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/manuals.qantumthemes.xyz\/wpcasterpro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht_kb\/7982"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/manuals.qantumthemes.xyz\/wpcasterpro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht_kb"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/manuals.qantumthemes.xyz\/wpcasterpro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/ht_kb"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/manuals.qantumthemes.xyz\/wpcasterpro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/manuals.qantumthemes.xyz\/wpcasterpro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7982"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/manuals.qantumthemes.xyz\/wpcasterpro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht_kb\/7982\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7986,"href":"https:\/\/manuals.qantumthemes.xyz\/wpcasterpro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht_kb\/7982\/revisions\/7986"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/manuals.qantumthemes.xyz\/wpcasterpro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7982"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"ht_kb_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/manuals.qantumthemes.xyz\/wpcasterpro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht_kb_category?post=7982"},{"taxonomy":"ht_kb_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/manuals.qantumthemes.xyz\/wpcasterpro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht_kb_tag?post=7982"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"https:\/\/manuals.qantumthemes.xyz\/wpcasterpro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/scr-2023-06-19-at-13.24.55.jpg\")
