New Audio extension

[schulle4u]

I've written a basic Audio plugin for my personal needs.
There is already the medialist plugin, however I needed a plugin which is able to play not just local media files and also can embed audio streams. So I did this quick and dirty HTML5 <audio> implementation. The plugin provides a [audio] shortcut to embed an audio player with play/pause, mute, volume and seeking controls. A flash fallback is not available, and I'm not going to support this feature. Instead you can enable a direct download of the file for older browsers (off by default).

Feel free to make suggestions/corrections. I'm just a coppy/paste programmer, so mistakes can happen. :)

Hi. NICE ! Thank you.

Maybe you can precise the audio file must not contain space.

artiste song.mp3 must be artiste-song.mp3

Perhaps %20 will work as space replacement? I usually don't use space characters in web environments.
But thanks for reporting, I'll do some testing and give hints in the readme accordingly.

HI

I made a plugin to create a playlist: https://github.com/nibreh/yellow-plugin-streamlist

Inspired by Last Rose Tutorial and your audio plugin

Reports are welcome.

Well done, I'm glad that my work has been an inspiration for you. Currently I don't need a playlist player, but surely will test your code if I ever should need one.

Currently I'm thinking of adding another player variant to my single-player-shortcode which displays the audio player as popup in a new window. This is useful especialy for webradio streams, when the user wants to browse the site while listening. Ideas welcome :)

The audio extension has been updated for Datenstrom Yellow 0.9, and again moved into an individual repository. I've also added a new experimental feature to handle multiple audio files. You can make a custom notice block with the audiolist class, and create some audio links inside it. These links automatically will be treated as audio files, and basic playback controls are available.

Title: Audio page

Here is a list of audio files, just click on any of the links to play them. To download a file, right-click and save as. 

! {.audiolist}
! * [File 1](/media/downloads/file1.mp3)
! * [File 2](/media/downloads/file2.mp3)
! * [External file](http://wolke.robbenradio.de/podcasts/rt033_yellow.mp3)

I haven't included any custom styles for the playback controls, but this is rather a theme-related thing anyways.
