Vanliga frågor
- What is playing the audio in the browser?
-
Playback of audio in all browsers except Mobile Safari uses the jQuery HTML5 Audio / Video Library ’jPlayer’.
Playback of audio in Mobile Safari uses the HTML5 tag or the Web Audio API depending on the iOS version. - What is the Playback audio file format?
-
The audio file format used for playback is determined by the calling browser.
We supply an option of ’mp3’, ’wav’ and ’oga’ file formats. - Where can I report bugs or issues?
-
You can report bugs or issues here: support@ttsengine.com.
- How do I use the plugin with iOS/Mobile Safari?
-
Mobile Safari does not allow the preloading of audio elements through the browser.
Loading and playback of audio can only be triggered by a user touch gesture with the touchscreen.
These limitations means there is a lag in the playback of audio in mobile Safari in iOS 5 and older.
The performance is much better using iOS 6 (recommended for this plugin) but there are two
user gestures required. One to quickly load the audio and a second to begin playback.
