Playing audio in a Mac App Store compatible NWJS app - audio

In the Additional Steps section at the foot of MAS: Packaging your app, I read:
To ensure proper validation [of your NWJS app for the Mac App Store], you have to check those steps:
Delete the FFMPEG library:
rm "YourApp.app/Contents/Frameworks/nwjs
Framework.framework/Libraries/ffmpegsumo.so"
Note: Currently, FFMPEG library cannot be submitted to Mac App Store as is.
When I delete the FFMPEG library, if my app includes (ogg) audio files and attempts to play them, the app crashes. I assume that this is because the FFMPEG library is essential for audio playback.
Does this mean that the current Mac-App-Store-friendly NWJS build (nwjs-macappstore-v0.12.3-osx-x64) does not support audio? Or is the an alternative audio library that I can use with it?

Embed and play sound (via audio element) in electron app

The actual task is to play mp3 file that should be embedded with the electron app.
I placed the mp3 file near my electron app "main.js".
I wanted to play it using some "sound-play" (https://github.com/nomadhoc/sound-play) package using bridge api, but it didn't worked out, sound is not playing.
So I want to just play it using an audio element (which seems to be more universal), but I don't get what src url I should supply to it. And then I wonder how to correctly add an additional asset to the built version (I'm using electron-builder).
Working with extra/local resources in election apps is kind of obscure topic for me. Advice would be appreciated.

How to play the audiobook .m4b file in julia?

I want to play a audio book file xxx.m4b in a web app, but I can't find a package to handle the m4b file. I find a possible package called ffmpeg but I have no idea how to implement it. How can I play a audio book file in a web app or just natively in my desktop?

Chromecast from a node media server

I used npm hls-server to setup an hls streaming server on my dev machine. Then i took android sample app and tried adding another video with url that of my localhost.
The video plays fine inside the sample app but i am unable to cast it to chromecast.
I tried changing mediatype and also setup cors proxy using npm package cors-anywhere.
I used ffmpeg to generate hls playlist and .ts files.
Would be great if someone can help out.
The problem was with my HLS stream. What I did was to use sample receiver app from google and attached debugger to see error code/exceptions.
Then i took another video and used ffmpeg to produce hls again which worked out quite fine.

converting audio file format after upload

I am developing a phonegap application for iOS and Android. In iOS, recorded sound format is .wav and in android, it's .amr/.mp3. After recording, audio file gets uploaded to a web server.
I need to convert these files from .amr/.wav to .mp3 after upload - what options do I have?
I've read about ffmpeg and ffmpeg-php. Will that work with shared hosting? If yes, can someone provide any link to install it?
Any converter, which will work with shared hosting of justHost cPanel?
any php class which can send my audio file to ffmpeg server and get back mp3 file? Just thinking.
Any other option?
I don't mind the method - I need the the required output.

Playing audio using red5 media server

I have installed red5 media server via windows OS. Demo application are running perfectly. My question is, i want to stream audio from red5 media server. So please help how to store audio in red5 and play from red5 to my custom player(Jplayer) using php
JPlayer doesn't require Red5. You can just put your media in a folder that's accessible via the web and stream from there. If you feel you must use Red5 then follow their examples for the demo app - you can even use the sample folder they stream those from since it doesn't sound like you need any server-side code.
