2 years ago Tangentially related...but had some more fun testing with FLAC (not uploads, just links; see also: #4210):
- If the server is configured to set FLAC files to
audio/x-flac, The Lounge won't embed it. - If the server is configured to set FLAC files to
audio/flac, The Lounge will embed it.
While audio/x-flac would seem to be technically correct, in that it's not defined by IANA, MDN says that audio/flac is the standard and that audio/x-flac is non-standard... 😅
Edit: I believe this particular comment (not the Issue itself) will be resolved with #4470.
When uploading an ogg file that container opus audio, the MIME type doesn't appear to get set correctly. If the .ogg contains vorbis audio, the mime type appears to be set correctly and the audio embeds.
This ZIP file contains an example of each to test uploading to your own The Lounge: Toss A Coin To Your Witcher (2020).zip (credit to Dan Vasc for this sick cover, btw)
If you upload the
[OPUS]file, you will not get an embed in The Lounge. If you load the file directly, you'll notice that the mime type being set isaudio/opus, which doesn't appear to be supported by any of the major browsers.If you upload the
[VORBIS]file, you will get an embed in The Lounge. If you load the file directly, you'll notice that the mime type being set isaudio/ogg, which is supported by at least Chromium and Firefox (Safari is special).
