Vorbis (Ogg) is technically better, but well, only one format is easier to maintain, and at 192 kbps the mp3 rendering is pretty decent.

@starfighter: html5 support is in this todo list, so it's all good, it will be supported at some point and it will be awesome! : https://chipmusic.org/forums/topic/1001 … ic-mobile/

There are plenty of good suggestions in this thread, why haven't this been implemented? I'm sure there's a reason?

Also, sorry for posting in such an old thread but I figured since the topic has been discussed, I shouldn't make a new thread, right? smile

MP3 is still a thing because it's supported by most browsers. Safari does not support OGG (iOS) Which there are more users than those that use Firefox.

+1 for HTML5 player. I actually have it running over at http://weeklybeats.com

Currently the only way to view embedded youtube or vimeo videos seems to be to inspect the source, get the video id, and copy it into a youtube or vimeo link. A lot of hassle.
I cannot run flash because it is hardly supported on my OS (Linux), flash's terrible security track record, and because every time I've used that plugin it degrades browser performance (one reason being common abuse of tons of flash applets by advertisers).

Native + MP3 for streaming seems like a win/win. JavaScript decoders are feasible too, since you can always just generate data and put them inside the well-supported <audio> tag.

I prefer to keep native formats, but audio is easier to replay (except when it's in flash) and you can also propose recordings from original consoles or computers. The best would be like on battle of the beats, with native + mp3 (or vorbis).

The inexorable slide into a world without Flash continues, with Google revealing plans to phase out support for Adobe's Flash Player in its Chrome browser for all but a handful of websites. And the company expects the changes to roll out by the fourth quarter of 2016.

While it says Flash might have "historically" been a good way to present rich media online, Google is now much more partial to HTML5, thanks to faster load times and lower power use.The inexorable slide into a world without Flash continues, with Google revealing plans to phase out support for Adobe's Flash Player in its Chrome browser for all but a handful of websites.

I've just tested for a SID file, there is no player for it. I'll try the others as well, but anyway, I think most people upload rendered music (mp3).

I think the best would be to allow more native chip formats (like on http://2a03.free.fr/), eventually propose to use some extra javascript players to render them online (the one by Gasman, and also for example the one for SID made by Hermit: https://github.com/hermitsoft/jsSID and I'm sure there are js ym players as well). And also to propose a rendered mp3/vorbis version, like on battle of the bits.

Also, why is this in General Discussion and not in Bugs/Feature requests?

Maybe I hadn't the right to post in the bugs section, or I just posted in the same section as the original post which I couldn't answer to.

Anyway, I still think chipmusic.org needs a good html5 player and vorbis/ogg support.

Sometimes I'd like to listen from my phone to the new musics posted by people, and I can't because of flash.

And I still recommend http://pupunzi.open-lab.com/mb-jquery-c … dioplayer/ which works fine and is easy to use (it's the one I have on my website)
