When is Firefox Mobile getting mp3 and aac html5 support?

I want to be able to use Firefox for Android to listen to music through Grooveshark's html5 website. From what information I've been able to gather Firefox for Android must still only have ogg hmtl5 support and I don't want to have to use Chrome or the built-in browser just for Grooveshark.

Yes Firefox should be able to play back those files on Android. It is likely that the site is doing user agent sniffing instead of feature detection. You can try the phony extension to pretend to be other browsers. It may allow SoundCloud to work. http://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/android/addon/phony/
If Phony does help then it is an issue with SoundCloud's website.

MP3 and AAC files mixed in burned Audio CD???

Here is the story. I am new to iTunes and I have a 400Mhz G4 AGP Machine running OS 10.2.8 and have Quicktime 6.5.3 installed. I also have a 93 Gig HD and 512 megs of RAM and a Sony CRX160E iLink CD burner. I was running iTunes 3.0.1 for a little bit and just upgraded to 4.7.1 about a week or 2 ago. Can I mix "MP3" encoded tracks with "AAC" tracks. I think that I read in the help menu that I had to use the "Data CD" option instead of the Music CD option. But, if this is so, can I still play this CD in a regular CD player? since was encoded with MP3 and AAC and it is formated as a Data CD??? The reason I am asking is because I encoded a bunch of songs as MP3s in 3.0.1 as default and I understand that AAC files are of slightly better quality so, I wonder if it would be worth it for me to re-import my songs in "AAC" for consistency. Consistency is my main concern. I want to be able to burn CDs with little problems (although I have some issues but, that is a different story) and mix formats if I can.
Thanks,
Larry

Thanks for your help! I just burnt a CD with mixed formats and it played fine in a "newer" CD player. My home CD player is older (Circa 80s or 90s?) and I have been told that the older CD players either can't or, don't like CDRs. So, it played fine in my son's newer CD player but, not in my "older" player. I am not too sure about the difference in sound quality yet. I'll have to do some more testing. The MP3 files and AAC files both sounded well when played. One annoying thing, though is the volume issue. Most of the songs played at a similar volume but, one played quite softly. An annoying thing but, I understand that even if you use the "Sound check" option, the sound can vary due to the fact that iTunes has a "fast" way of reading the sound levels and could be inefficient. I will try "iVolume" to see if that helps. It is supposed to be pretty good for iTunes except for the version 7 that just came out.
Thanks again,
Larry

CBR MP3 and AAC issue for audioqueue

We are exporting MP3 and AAC files from Logic Pro / Itunes with a constant bit rate - however when we look at these in the terminal they are showing as having a 0 value for the bytes/packet - therefore the SDK is seeing them as VBR files... Here's an example in the terminal:
File: introduction.mp3
File type ID: MPG3
Data format: 2 ch, 44100 Hz, '.mp3' (0x00000000) 0 bits/channel, 0 bytes/packet, 1152 frames/packet, 0 bytes/frame
no channel layout.
estimated duration: 246.000 sec
audio bytes: 4938188
audio packets: 9452
bit rate: 160 bits per second
packet size upper bound: 1052
maximum packet size: 523
audio data file offset: 4096
optimized
Tried exporting them as AAC and MP3 using both Logic Pro and iTunes but all output files are showing a bytes/packet value.
Does anyone know how we can ensure that the CBR files have non 0 values for both bytes/packet and frames/packet?

Here's some more details on the file: Looks like there's a lot of different bit rates in there:
FO:
MPEG1 layer 3
9452 frames
44100 Hz
38.281250 frames per second
246.909388 seconds
4942284 bytes in file (160.132721 kbps)
4938188 bytes in MP3 frames (160.000008 kbps) = current bitrate
36500250 bits of payload data (147.828523 kbps)
4566717 bytes of payload data (147.964143 kbps)
33486 bits wasted from partially-full bytes (0.135621 kbps)
4906989 bytes of MP3 data (158.989143 kbps) = minimum bitrate possible
31199 bytes of padding (1.010865 kbps)
4096 bytes outside MP3 frames (0.132713 kbps)
0 sync errors
Bitrate distribution:
160: 5208,4244
Largest frame uses 6427 bits = 804 bytes = 246.033594 kbps
Smallest bitrate for CBR is 160

When is Firefox Mobile going to be available for windows phone?

When is Firefox Mobile going to be available for windows phone?

May be there is no possibilities in near future to implement Firefox for windows phone. There are some technical and legal issue for deploying Firefox on windows phone. Moreover Mozilla is spending more energy on it's own mobile operating system which is Firefox OS.

Mp3 and AAC (unprotected) in FCE 4??

Hi,
I couldn't find any mention in the Apple documents. Does FCE 4 finally support mp3 and aac audio files??
Thanks,
Mace

Well, I got FCE 4.0 and it doesn't appear to accept my aac files.

MP3 and restricted codec support

hi,
finally I have my system set and running. I did go for the KDE4 which I like very much and followed all the steps as stated in the Beginner'S Guide.
However, I don't have MP3 neither other multimedia propietary format access like MP4, AAC, MOV, WMA, WMV or RMVB - I carry my multimedia collection of songs, videos and movies from when I was on WinXP (yikes!)- despite I installed Xine and other utilities as desccribed in the Beginner's Guide.
I do can watch some AVI files but can't access sound stream so they're muted. How do I add full multimedia support to my fresh shiny Arch? I did try to search the forums but there's to seem a problem because I keep receiving desconnections errors.

Re: MP3 and restricted codec support
why did you opened a new thread instead of discussion in the previous one?
oops, I did it again, sorry! (yeah, I know you prefer Brtiney saying that )
I just did the same of my very first post: promise to don't screw things again and follow the rules.
@Bralkein: thanks for your tips and useful research, I will stick with xine until I backup my root, then maybe I try gstreamer.
@.:B:.: I have panic of installing things that can break my system, before installing Arch few days ago I came from an entire life in *buntuland, so you'll see : D

I am getting strange numeric symbols or tiles instead of text when using Firefox. Repeated reloads and virus scans have not fixed it. I can't find a patch. Help! I hate IE!

Each time I open Firefox, I get blocks or tiles of numbers for each character instead of text. The tiles appear as composites of four digits, stacked two by two. At some websites, normal text does appear in boxes but mostly as this numeric gibberish. The functionality of the Firefox software does not seem to have been affected. But if I can't read it, I can't use it.

Try to set the pref gfx.font_rendering.directwrite.use_gdi_table_loading to false on the about:config page.
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
*Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
*Preferences that have been modified show as bold(user set).
*Preferences can be reset to the default or changed via the right-click context menu.

When opening Firefox I get a Java Scripts error message and Firefox will not always open

When opening Firefox browser I get an error message from JavaScript Application: "TypeError:components{cid} is undefined. Sometimes the Firefox browser will not open; sometimes it does. Very annoying!!
Richard

This can be caused by an add-on that says it is compatible with Firefox 4 but isn't quite compatible. This thread has more information: [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/729606 Javascript pop errors stating: TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined | Firefox Support Forum | Firefox Help].
Does that help?

How to block Firefox from playing mp3 and allow me to save the file

I have upgraded to Firefox v28. I want to save a mp3 file for playing later like previous versions of Firefox. When I click the file it starts playing and does not give me the option to save the file.
In Options the 'application' settings for file type MP3 is set to 'save file'. The quicktime plugin is disabled.
The media.windows-media-foundation.enabled is set to false in about:config
How can I restore Firefox behavior to be like the old versions
Thanks

Try to set the Boolean pref media.directshow.enabled to false as well on the about:config page.
You can also set the browser.altClickSave pref to true and hold down the Alt key when you left-click an MP3 link.

Try re-installing Java. See [[Using the Java plugin with Firefox]]
A quick search for jqsnotify.exe on Google indicates that it is related to the Java quick start option.

Hi schaefi,
I understand that you would like to know when the update for the commercial version of ZTE Open will be released to the public.
The OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers) are the ones responsible for testing and releasing updates to the users, for each specific device. Unfortunately, we at Mozilla do not have any information of when they will release those updates.
We apologize for the misinformation given earlier, regarding an 1.2 update being available on April 28th. For specific details regarding the updates, you may contact the manufacturer directly.
Thank you for your understanding.

Everytime I open a new tab, the firefox window gets smaller and smaller.

Every since I updated my Firefox, I have had issues. I love firefox so I would like to have this fixed please :) Well, everytime I open a new window or tab, the Firefox window gets smaller. Kind of like I hit the button by the close screen button. I have to actually hit that button to minimize the screen and hit it again to maximize it. It is sort of annoying. Is there something I can do?

There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

Can i sync phone when your firefox does not work and I can not have it on android mydesk top works great with fire fox

fire fox slows down and does not work on phone. but works on desk top . stilll need them to sync now can they still sync and why have you not made version for moto milesstone

The Motorola Milestone has a low amount of system RAM and that causes very poor performance. Because of this we don't support running Firefox mobile on the Milestone.
To set up sync you need to create a sync account on desktop Firefox. Then on the mobile device press the connect to sync and then go to desktop Firefox and enter the Sync code.

If you have specific questions about the steps above please reply in the forum.

When opening Firefox I get this message: Type Error: Components. classes ['@software.ru/skype/skypeFfentension;1'] is undefined. I have reinstalled Skype still have issue, Skype will not load, Firefox will ??

I started having this issue when I went to open Skype and it would not react and gave the message below. Then when I went back to firefox I got the above error message, which dissappears when I click OK and firefox will open. Skype still will not open.

That is a problem with the Skype extension. 
You will have to disable (uninstall) that extension if it isn't working properly.
