We're working with a client that is required to post audio of meeting minutes. Their current method of storing these audio files is Google Drive and they would prefer not to change that. As it stands, the site has links to the audio file on Google Drive which sends you to Google Drive and asks you to download the file. This is very inefficient. Does anyone know of a way to link to or stream a file hosted on Google Drive to make it more seamless or user friendly?
They are currently using WMA files, but if need be, we can request that they use MP3 or WAV. The link below will give you an idea what we're looking to improve.
Thanks in advance.

There is a database of audio files that will be stored in the S3 storage. The functionality of the site implies their playback, but not downloading. What can I do so that the file can't be downloaded just by getting a link to it from inspect browser.
The backend is written with Django REST API, the frontend with Nuxt.
I would be grateful for help in the direction of thought.
Now some advanced users can get a link directly to the audio file and download it, although only the playback functionality of the site is shown. This is possible by using inspect(F12) and further tracking the change of content on the page when you click on the "play" button.
im working on integrating zoom into my application and im stuck at a certain point.
So basically i want to get the zoom recordings of a user and download it into my aws s3 bucket.
using the zoom api to get recordings give you two links, a play link which leads you into zoom ui with the video of the recording and a download link. I want the users zoom recordings to play on my website using my ui, therefore i need to use the download link. Therefore i want to use my back end server (node) to get the download link and download the file then upload the file to aws.
Is that in anyway possible? or is there another way i could go about this problem?. Please i am in dire need of this help.
Thanks.
I'm trying to write a python script to record and save segments of a live stream for research purposes. I know how to do it for mainstream platforms such as YouTube, but I'm not sure how to do it on this site.
Here's the video link:

Thanks for your help!
Its not "recording" a video its just downloading. That site uses HLS. Any HLS downloader should work. But you need to get the URL form the m3u8 file.
Start by viewing the network tab of the browser, and the sites source code, You can then see how the browser plays it, then develop your script from that.
I'm looking for an audio player (like jplayer) which can be embedded in a HTML page which will allow MP3's to be played but not downloaded.
The problem: Flash players request the audio file from the server so the URL of the MP3 is present in the HTML source and can be copy/pasted in to the address bar to download the track. This will inherently be the problem with most players.
Possible solution: The player accepts some "encrypted" (non-playable) format which is then decoded inside the player. Anything like this exist?
I am not looking for solutions which sound like:
Obfuscating the URL of the MP3
Preventing downloading of the MP3 from third party sites (eg. forums) using .htaccess
Embedding the mp3 inside a flash movie unless this can be automated, since mp3's are uploaded on a regular basis.
Having a URL which only works for a certain period of time
I don't know if this answers your question, but... Have you tried streaming your audio files via flash? I have never heard of someone being able to download a file which was dynamicly called through actionscript... but maybe i just don't know what i am talking about...
Play Apple's .caf audio file on a webserver? I have .caf audio files (Apple's open audio format) stored on my webserver and want to play them from a web browser on any O/S.
I understand, this doesn't seem like the solution you're looking for, but...
Several weeks ago we faced the same problem. We have several clients which are posting audio files to the web site from theirs iPhones, and we need to play audios on the web site.
But we didn't find any suitable flash player with .caf format support.
So we decided to convert .caf to .mp3 on the server through the ffmpeg.exe utility.
Happily, there a lot of flash players with .mp3 support.
Now I have not tried this... but...

Seems to suggest that .CAF and .AIF may work interchangeably (It suggests that to convert to .CAF you convert to .AIF` and then rename the file).
Have you tried renaming it to .AIF and trying to play in a flash/java browser player? Alternatively just send it as a stream to the web-browser and let the client OS work out what to do with it (Like quicktime running inside the browser).
Let me know how it goes.
