mp3 vs. m4a (acc) files for website audio examples
I was putting together a website with some music examples. mp3 files
are fine but they seem to open in 'quick time' audio, replacing the browser page with a new page. They also have a short glitch in the beginning of the music piece. I found that .m4a (acc) files seem to open with a seperate 'real audio' player, without losing the main page. The files also seem to be a little smaller. Anyone have experience or opinions on the best files to use to represent music on website. What is the 'standard'. Also winamp has a free player that will 'rip' CDs to m4a files ..... (look in preferences for m4a and destination) .....http://www.winamp.com/player/ J West |

Ask a web developer how (I don't know myself). There are lots of MP4 variants like ogg, wma, acc, etc, 6 of one, half-dozen of the other. WMA probably offers the widest user support. |
