Is there any way of storing audio- / video-elements in the browser cache in Safari in iOS?

Hi there,
I'm desperatly trying to find a solution for a web application that has to run on an iOS-Safari (e.g. on iPad, iPad2 and iPhone 4):
It's a web-application I wrote some time ago which lets the user search for and listen to short music samples (MP3s, all from ~100 kB to ~1.5 MB). The audio player is Flash-based, so it doesn't work on iOS-devices at the moment and I'll have to implement an alternative either in HTML 5 or with a "direct" QuickTime-object.
Both my HTML 5- and QuickTime-alternatives for iOS-devices work fine so far, but there's one major problem I can't find a solution to:
Unlike Flash and most HTML 5-capable browsers on Windows Safari on my iPad 2 won't store the audiofiles in the browsercache after loading and playing them - neither with HTML 5 audio-tags nor with a QuickTime-Object. Every time I load an audio file for playback from the server (with JavaScript-Commands, so without changing or reloading the whole page) it's downloaded again completely.
If a user listens to sample A and then to sample B, Safari forgot about having played sample A and downloads the whole MP3 again if I like to listen to it again. On a mobile device with a potentially narrow bandwith this behaviour is out of the question.
Is there a way of storing downloaded audiofiles opened by HTML 5 or QuickTime in Safari's cache so it remembers already having downloaded them  -  like it caches usual "web-files" like HTML, CSS or JPEG-images, or like Flash stores such objects in its local cache?
The Application Cache with a manifest-file is not an option - this only seems to work if the browser is offline, for example if the iOS-device is in "Airplane"-Mode.

Yes, I watched it. It contains interesting stuff I have to admit I didn't know yet, but unfortunately I still can't find a solution to my problem:
My first attempt was trying to use the Application Cache with a manifest file - although this is not really the intended purpose for my application... I don't have a static set of files that I want to have cached or "available offline"  -  I just want to cache MP3s which the user has played yet.
It should be possible to use a "dynamic manifest": One that is parsed by the Apache PHP module and listing the files played so far from a PHP session - something like this:
<?php
session_start();
header("Content-Type: text/cache-manifest, charset=UTF-8");
echo "CACHE MANIFEST\n";
foreach($_SESSION['playedSongs'] as $song)
    echo $song."\n";
?>
So whenever a song is loaded / played, I could access the PHP session with AJAX, insert the filename of the played file and manually update the manifest by calling window.applicationCache.update().
There are two problems with this:
First of all: It doesn't work. And I didn't even get to the point of trying to use a dynamic manifest:
<!DOCTYPE html>   
<html manifest="cache.manifest">
    <head>
        <title>Test</title>
        <script type="text/javascript">
        function playStuff(id)
            if(id == 1)
                window.document.getElementById("audio").innerHTML = '<audio controls preload="automatic" autobuffer><source src="song01.mp3" type="audio/mp3" /></audio>';
            else if(id == 2)
                window.document.getElementById("audio").innerHTML = '<audio controls preload="automatic" autobuffer><source src="song02.mp3" type="audio/mp3" /></audio>';
        </script>
    </head>
    <body>
        <div id="audio"></div><br />
        <br />
        <input type="button" value="playStuff(1)" onclick="playStuff(1)" />
        <input type="button" value="playStuff(2)" onclick="playStuff(2)" />
    </body>
</html>
The cache.manifest looks like this:
CACHE MANIFEST
song01.mp3
song02.mp3
and is properly returned from Apache as "text/cache-manifest" by adding
AddType text/cache-manifest manifest
to the .htaccess of this directory.
The Apache-logs clearly show that the Safari (respectively "AppleCoreMedia") doesn't care about the application cache when it comes to audio-files:
Safari itself seems to acknowledge the manifest and indeed preload the files:

Every file is downloaded again completely when playing it. So "AppleCoreMedia" (whatever this may be exactly, the QuickTime-plugin that is triggered by the HTML 5 audio-element I suppose?) either doesn't have access to the Application Cache or simply just doesn't realize the files in it. So if I switch my iPad to "Airplane Mode" now, the Safari is unable to access / load / play the files.
I also tried using a QuickTime-object instead of an HTML 5 audio-tag (as far as I know HTML 5 audio and video in Safari always use QuickTime?) and controlling it with something like:
document.movie1.SetURL('song02.mp3');
Nothing changes, it's just like using HTML 5 audio and everything gets downloaded again when loading/playing it.
And even if this would work there'd still be a problem:
To properly implement that I would have to load the MP3-file in the Application Cache before playing it. When doing this it seems impossible to show a "real" progress: The ProgressEvent that is fired from the Application Cache after updating it doesn't seem to provide any information about data loaded so far and the complete size of a file. It's just "File 1 from 2" and so on, and not a "real" progress where I could determine something like: "100 kB of 1.2 MB loaded" as I can with the audio-element.
All the other storage-approaches like Web SQL / Web Database or Local Storage are no help either:
I don't see any way of getting the MP3 data into Local Storage or Web Database or getting it out again to play it. The HTML 5 Canvas-element has a toDataURL()-function to produce a Base64-encoded representation and use it for storage  -  the Audio-element doesn't seem to have anything like this.
My last really "dirty" approach was trying to load "manually" Base64-encoded-MP3s with a combination of AJAX and PHP: A PHP-script outputs a Base64-representation of a MP3-file and is loaded by AJAX, so I could store the Base64-representation e.g. as Local Storage or in Web Database:
<?php
$infile = 'song01.mp3';
$contents = file_get_contents($infile);
$base64 = base64_encode($contents);
$audio = 'data:audio/mp3;base64,'.$base64.'';
echo $audio;
?>
I tried using the resulting AJAX responseText as the source-argument in an audio-source-tag. Suprise: It doesn't work in Safari on my iPad 2, the player just fails to load the "file", although this works fine in Chrome on Windows. Possibly a size limitation for Base64-URIs on Safari / iOS.
And again: Even if this was working in iOS/Safari I don't know of a way to determine a real progress from an AJAX-query...
The last thing I could think of is not replacing the audio- or source-tags when loading a song but leaving them in the DOM-structure, check if it's already there when a song is loaded and just add a new audio-tag if a song hasn't been loaded yet.
This solution would be my last resort: I'd have to rewrite nearly the whole application to completely operate on JavaScript / AJAX to stay on one site in the browser - else the "cached" audio data would be lost again when changing to another site in Safari.
Furthermore I think there'll be a small cache limit somewhere when doing this?
Any ideas?

  • Is there any way to prevent misbehaving solved by refreshing the browser?

    When I play my published Captivate 6 file in the browser (in this case Google Chrome), it sometimes gets "stuck" --- rollovers don't  work properly or buttons don't show up when they are supposed to. Sometimes I get the audio echo problem where audio from some previous slide plays on a future slide). None of these things happen during previews.
    If I refresh the browser and then continue where I left off, the problems are gone.
    What is causing this awful behavior? I am afraid I am disappointing my client, which I never want to do and have never done in the past!  We will have to publish instructions telling people that if anything goes wrong, they should just refresh their browsers. But some may not know how to do that, some may not read the instructions, etc. etc. causing support calls to my client and general dissatisfaction with the training.
    Is this just a shoddy product or did I not do something I need to do to get it to behave itself?
    Please advise! Thank you,
    Ellen

    hmm the a64 is locked so you cannot use a cpu multipier to have only cpu go faster..
    i oc with the fsb....but noticed that i may actually be over running my power, at high oc's(233)  if i unplug at least 3 hard drives, and some fans it will run microsofts memmory tester...but not with them in.
    you may be able to oc if you drop your mem speed down in bios to 333 or 200.
    so when you oc the memm will clib from there...i have seen good results from that.
    one person was able to catch my 232 results from dropping down to 200 mem speeds.

  • Is there any way to merge 2 video layers to one without exporting?

    Is there any way to merge 2 video layers into one without exporting as a new QuickTime movie? I have tried opening a blank player to copy and paste into, but it always forces it to be layered, even when I change the layer numbers both to zero. I tried extracting the video layers and omitting the audio tracks. Then I saved it as a new self contained movie. I am trying to burn the video to dvd with Roxio Easy Media Creator 9's MyDVD on WIndows XP, but I am also using a MacBook with QuickTime Pro. MyDVD will only recognize one video and audio layer at a time, hence, the other layers get skipped. There should be an easy way to merge two video layers without having to export it as a new movie, which takes 2 hours for this 2 hour TV show. Thanks for any answers.

    Is there ANY way to "drop" several videos or pictures at once (like an entire folder) instead of painstakingly dropping/dragging one image at a time? I just opened my Adope Premiere Elements 9 and after "working with" for 9 hours, I can't figure it out! Is there a singular CLEAR guide or video out there that teaches newbies like me how to do BASICS like this? Extremely exasperated.

    How long have you been working with Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 and on what computer operating system?
    Take a look at the Premiere Elements 9 Help PDF for starter before you invest in books and such.
    http://help.adobe.com/archive/en_US/premiereelements/9/premiereelements_9_help.pdf
    On to the immediate issue....
    When you "Get Media" Files and Folders, be aware that you can import folders with the format supported photos/videos inside.
    Then go immediately to Organize header/ and Project in row below and click on Project.
    You should see your folder there.
    a. You can drag it to the Timeline and have your photos/videos open on the Timeline
    b. You can manage folder opening and closing with the icons at the bottom left of the Project area where you see
    your imported files.
    If you are at the point where you already have your Project area loaded with lots of individual imports, you can create folders
    there and drag your photos/videos into different folders. But, we aware that you can drag folder or individual files
    from Project onto the Timeline.
    Does any of the above help? If so, I will know I am going in the right direction for what you want to know.
    What is with the painstakingly dropping/dragging one image at a time? Just how many images are in this project?
    We are glad for the opportunity to help.
    Looking forward to your follow up.
    Thanks.

    No, but you can save a photo on FaceBook.
    Try downloading/saving the video from FaceBook on your computer. If successful, after doing so you can transfer the video to your iPhone along with any photos on your computer or alone. They transfer won't be in the Camera Roll, it will be in your iPhone's Photo Library.

    What version of Premiere Elements do you have and on what computer operating system is it running?
    Are you referring to opening your Premiere Elements project on your computer in an iPad Premiere Elements app at a remote location? I have not seen any Premiere Elements apps for iPad or other. But there are video editing apps for iPad which can be found described online and rated...if you are working with Mac, I think that an iMovie app is available for iPad.
    Premiere Elements 12 does get involved with your mobile device and accessing your videos/photos that were uploaded to Adobe Revel in the export section of the project.
    Also, I was wondering if you could be referring in any way to using your iPad as an external monitor for Premiere Elements on your computer.
    This appears to be a can do operation for Mac and Windows from what I have read.

    Is there any way to search for a term using the Firefox search field, and have the results automatically open in a new tab? When there was support for Google Toolbar, I was able to do this; now, whenever I want to search for something, I have to open a new tab to do it, and cut-and-paste my search into the search field in the new tab. I used to be able to highlight, drag, and drop something into the search field and have it automatically open in a new tab. This is enough for me to switch to Chrome . . .

    About Google toolbar............
    Google decided that they will no longer produce the Google Toolbar for Firefox 5 and newer version. It is best to move on to other alternatives than to try any "hacks" to the toolbar that may or may not perform in the future. Future versions of Google toolbar will only work with IE7-9. Google Toolbar is not available on any other browser, even Google's own browser.

  • Is there any way to set default column widths in the Finder's Column view

    When my Finder windows open in column view, all the columns are always VERY wide. I have to then spend time resizing them to a managable width. Is there any way to set default column widths in the Finder's Column view?
    <Re-Titled By Host>

    No, because you can't set a columns view default.

  • Only an exclamation point shows up when I click a thumbnail in my iphoto folder. Is there any way to recover these photos by using the thumbnails?

    Only an exclamation point shows up when I click a thumbnail in my iphoto folder. Is there any way to recover these photos by using the thumbnails? Please help. Thanks!

    That exclamation mark is displayed when iPhoto cannot link to the original file.  First make sure you are running a "managed" library by checking iPhoto's Advanced preference pane to make sure the checkbox to copy files into the library during import is checked.
    Click to view full size
    If it is checked you can try the following: make a temporary, duplicate copy of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Is there any way to overclock an A64 by adjusting the multiplier?

    Is there any way to overclock an A64 by adjusting the multiplier?
    I have an Athlon64 3200+ (Socket 754) and a MSI K8T Neo-FIS2R.
    Seems to be a sweet overclocker, but my RAM cannot run at much more than the normal 200 (400) MHz, so FSB overclocking is no good for me.
    /Salmoneus

    hmm the a64 is locked so you cannot use a cpu multipier to have only cpu go faster..
    i oc with the fsb....but noticed that i may actually be over running my power, at high oc's(233)  if i unplug at least 3 hard drives, and some fans it will run microsofts memmory tester...but not with them in.
    you may be able to oc if you drop your mem speed down in bios to 333 or 200.
    so when you oc the memm will clib from there...i have seen good results from that.
    one person was able to catch my 232 results from dropping down to 200 mem speeds.

    I have cs4 installed on my old computer, i have since lost the disk and serial #s. Is there any way to recover this information and install the programs on my new computer? I used my old computer for college and haven't used it in awhile, now I have a job that can benefit from having those programs. I was wondering if ADOBE keeps records or something to where I can download the programs on my new MacBook and use my old serial #s.
