Music-Bookmarklet

A standalone bookmarklet that plays audio from a page in a full page player.

Visit the gh-page to drag the bookmarklet into your browser.

Basic use:

• Bookmark it
• Visit a page that links to audio files
• Click the bookmarklet

Features:

• Play/pause

• Prev/Next

• Random song

• Click any song in the playlist to play it

• Click a point along the progressbar to skip ahead/back

• Search

• On Android devices:

  • Player controls are available via a Media Notification.
  • So the player can run in the background and be controled without returning to the browser tab.
  • As a result, the player can also be controlled via connected devices with media controls or notification sync (Headphones, smartwatches, etc...)

• If no audio files are detected when the bookmarklet is clicked:

  • A prompt will appear with an input.
  • Enter the type of audio you would like to find, and click 'ok'.
  • A custom Google search will return pages containing audio links and the search term.
  • Visit one of the pages from the Google search.
  • Click the bookmarklet

If the bookmarklet doesn't work:

• Refresh the page (without using the bookmarklet) and test the links to audio files.

• Clicking one of these links should play it in the browser's default audio player.

• If it does something else (doesnt play, loads another webpage, initiates a download, etc...), then that page will not work.

• If the links do play in the browser, but the bookmarklet still doesnt work, it is probably my fault.

Support:

I have tested in Chrome on Mac, Android, and Chromebook. That is all.
