How can you embed mp3 files into web pages? Google audio player is a cool way to embed and play any music mp3 file on your website. This will allow your readers to play audio files directly from web pages.
Google Audio Player Embeds Mp3 Files
So what code do you embed in your webpage
<embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.google.com/reader/ui/3523697345-audio-player.swf" quality="best" flashvars="audioUrl=MP3link" width="500" height="27"></embed>
You can change the width of the Google audio player to fit your content width. If you increase the height, a black empty zone starts to appear, so best keep it at 27px. Remember to change MP3link with the link to your mp3 file url. This means the mp3 is hosted on your site or on some mp3 hosting services.
Play the embedded mp3 below. You can also change the volume!
But where is the Google branding? Actually this code is used to play audio files in Google reader (see the audio player flash file url), but this is the easiest way to embed mp3 audio files. Simply add the mp3 url link and embed any mp3 file using this simply Google audio player! [mp3 by PacDV]

It looks Good but I prefer the WordPress player
Its cool. The most easy thing is it can be used as web page. Its very important feature also. As it give us an opportunity to listen to the musics on the web page. But another fact is obviously it needs higher internet connection.
thanks for the tip, google player is a bit optimised and faster!
But this code will work on any webpage. This does not need wordpress.
This is totally not working for me and I’m really upset about it. Would it have anything to do with my MP3 being on SoundCloud?
