    I keep receiving the error above after a period of time after hitting the play button.

    More info, please. what’s the audio file format? What’s the source? Please provide a link to a page on your site where we can see this. Thanks. Note: Your link will be public and we will not later remove it.

    Hi there! Thanks for following up.

    Here’s a link to the page: https://www.mainecf.org/about-us/

    It’s a MP3 file and it’s been uploaded to the WordPress media storage.

    UPDATE: It works on Edge and IE, but not Chrome.

    Can’t wrap my head around the issue.

    Thanks,
    Colby

    Firefox tells me “Cannot play media. No decoders for requested formats: audio/mpeg, audio/mpeg, audio/mpeg”

    The linked source seems to be https://www.mainecf.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Laura-Young-interview-with-Celeste-Baranyi-Townsquare-media-10-22-20.mp3?_=1

    Where is that ? =1 coming from?

    The file https://www.mainecf.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Laura-Young-interview-with-Celeste-Baranyi-Townsquare-media-10-22-20.mp3 plays just fine.

    Not sure how the ?=1 is getting added. Using shortcode below:

    Hmmm… well, that doesn’t seem to be the issue.

    The file does not play through the player, but if I download it, it plays with VLC.

    Do you have the file in other formats? Can you try converting it to an M4A?

    The player works fine on Edge and IE. I’ll try changing format and see if it’ll work…

    So…I’ve added both OGG and FLAC formats and neither work in Chrome. Think there’s any settings on the backend that could be causing audio files not to play on just Chromium/Firefox browsers?

    Chrome tells me

    Uncaught (in promise) DOMException: Failed to load because no supported source was found.
    mediaelement-and-player.min.js?ver=4.2.16:12 Uncaught (in promise) DOMException: The element has no supported sources.
    mediaelement-and-player.min.js?ver=4.2.16:12 

    This may be a plugin or theme conflict. Please attempt to disable all plugins, and use one of the default (Twenty*) themes. If the problem goes away, enable them one by one to identify the source of your troubles. Start with any caching/optimization plugins like “wp optimize”

    Do you think it could have anything to do with .htaccess file settings?

    I doubt it. What’s in your .htaccess?

    I have the same problem and I do not know what else to do.
    I have deactivated all the pluggings and changed to a default theme but not working. Not playing.

    I could see that for the initial web, something worked and the audio is playing correctly.

    Could the author of the post tell how he or she made it?
    Or some help by anyone because it has been a lot of days struggling with this.

    Thank you in advance

    @serpaspar, If you need support then per the forum guidelines please start your own topic.

    A lot more people will see your post, and that way you stand a good chance of getting the assistance you want. Despite any similarity in symptoms, your issue is likely to be completely different because of possible differences in physical servers, accounts, hosts, plugins, theme, configurations, etc. Thus one problem, on one setup is not indicative of the functionality and reliability of an application as a whole: https://wordpress.org/support/forum-user-guide/faq/#i-have-the-same-problem-can-i-just-reply-to-someone-elses-post-with-me-too

    and: https://wordpress.org/support/guidelines/#post-in-the-best-place

    You can do so here: https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/#new-post

    I’ll be archiving your post and mine to not spam the original poster and detract from their question.

    Thanks.
