No sound in IE (use alternate engine?)

[FlashyGoblin]

So IE doesn't support Web Audio. And I know Babylon only supports Web Audio within its sound engine. I'm curious to see what others are doing to work around this?

Looks like I will need to test if it is supported first, and then use a different sound library if not.

BABYLON.Engine.audioEngine.canUseWebAudio

Obviously another sound library wouldn't support directional sounds. But I'd like to stay within the Babylon framework as much as possible. I need to support IE, so if I'm going to need a second sound library, I'm wondering if I don't just go 100% to a separate sound library.

Anyone else running into a similar issue? What was your approach? 

 

Thanks!!

it some time ago I used this and works very well (you will find attached files):

<script type="text/javascript" src="js/swfobject.js"></script>

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="dewplayer-mini.swf" width="200" height="20" id="dewplayer" name="dewplayer" style="z-index:1">
    <param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
    <param name="movie" value="dewplayer-mini.swf" />
    <param name="flashvars" id="LectureSon" value="mp3=audio.mp3&autostart=0&autoreplay=0&randomplay=0&nopointer=0&volume=100&javascript=on" />
</object>

Sorry the link is in French, but this can be translated

Libs "dewplayer"
