[SOLVED]DewPlayer not working on Macs

Hi Folks, I'm working on a Welsh history site where a lot of pages include sound files to help illustrate the correct pronunciation of Welsh place names. For example: http://historypoints.org/index.php?page ... il-station
The problem is that some people, notably Mac user report that the sound file player doesn't work on their machines.
Nobody else has reported/experienced this issue.
Is there perhaps another recommended player that is more platform independant than DewPlayer? Shame as it's such a great little module.
Any help greatly recieved,
Cheers,
Eugene.

Hi,

I believe that's because Safari doesn't support Flash player.
Had the same problem and have found an alternative.
I'm using JWplayer, with JW Embedder.
Information can be found here: http://www.longtailvideo.com/support/jw ... dder-modes
Hope this helps

Cheers

Thanks so much for your prompt reply and help. I've been side tracked that's why I haven't responded sooner. I'll have a good look and hopefully that will be problem solved.
Thanks again for the info.
Cheers,
Eugene. :)
