### Thanks to the authors

 * Milenko Mitrovic for the [DC-DSP Filter](https://www.dsp-worx.de/?n=4) – most
   of digital signal processing algorithms was reused from DC-DSP Filter.
 * Ryan Geiss for the [Geiss plugin](https://www.geisswerks.com/geiss/) – the minimal
   version of Geiss was ported into this project as fullscreen audio visualization.

## Instalación

To install this plugin you need to do the following:

 1. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/plugin-name` directory, or 
    install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress
 3. Insert shortcodes into the text of your post, list of the shortcodes provided below.

## Preguntas frecuentes

After I modify the shortcode it stopped working, why?
 When you modify the text 
the wordpress editor could insert invisible markup. To remove that markup you can
copy the shortcode to notepad, and than copy it back from notepad to wordpress editor.

Why this player does not play media file from remote url?
 Due to web browser security
policy it does not allow to read and process audio which located on remote host.
The exception are files where “Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *” is present, such 
files can be played remotely.

Why do I hear small sound artifacts in Chrome?
 It appers only if you playing audio
on “http”, but on “https” everything works fine. The reason is that modern web browser
audio processing features works only with “https”, and if you are using “http” then
player using older sound processing mechanism which is deprecated.

### 󠀁[Excelent player for Web Radio using Icecast](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/excelent-player-for-web-radio-using-icecast/)󠁿

This player is excellent. I have been using it to play the stream generated by Icecast
in real time on the Web Radio page. It has a slim design by default and a beautiful
spectrum analyzer. But with a simple click on the interface, a set of possibilities
opens up, which includes a wonderful equalizer and some other features. Recently
the author added some features to support Icecast, bringing the name of the current
artist/song directly from the stream server (Icecast). It is worth using it for 
Web Radio and in other ways as well, since it can be used with statistical playlists.
Very good!

How about speed control of audio 0.8x, 1.2x, 1.5x, 2x? And quick rewind +10sec, -
30sec e.t.c.

I’m impressed with the EQ and will look into it more closely. It would be ideal 
if you also had a controller for the 100 Hz range, as this is an important frequency.
I will research whether the EQ can also be integrated into a playlist. Alex, I’m
definitely very excited about the project. Create, now I customized the Player-Skin
and EQ-Skin. I integrated the Player with Elemntor und Hello-Theme. It works perfect
on all browser. It runs on Wordpress 6.4
