 * Hi,
    Here is the error you have: [https://d.pr/i/zvuQVk](https://d.pr/i/zvuQVk)
 * You are trying to stream a file that is on another URL than where the player 
   resides.
    That said, it gives you a CORS policy error.
 * Either you host/reupload the file in the same domain name, or you add CORS control
   header to your streaming url server.

 * Hi,
    Thank you for the answer. I have now tried to add/upload a file via the 
   player (track 5) and indeed – the waveform is there. But I need it to work with
   external files, so I have added this to the htaccess file of the subdomain:
 * Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin “*”
 * Now the error does not appear, yet the waveform still doesn’t work.
 * Also, for local files, I cannot set the “Artist – Title” and instead it shows
   the name of the Page (which is “Pealkiri”) for the 5th track.
 * I’m really considering buying the player to get the sticky player function, but
   I need to get it to work as I need it first.
 * Thank you in advance if you have any other tips,
    Sincerely, John

 * [@sonaar](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sonaar/) have you tested it and
   managed to make the waveform appear with external files?

   a few very bad ones. I’m sure everyone here is very nice however, by giving some

   person who takes the keys is now responsible for the house FOREVER.

 * I’m sorry for causing this. However, just to let others know, sonaar said that
   the error was found and an official update to the plugin will come soon that 
   will fix it.
