I have been using this extension for ages on my old Joomla 1.5 Site (mainly for remote mp3 files).

I'm preparing a new site with Joomla 2.5.27 and the mp3remote functionality doesn't work on Chrome browser. The player appears but it doesn't work (on IE11 and Firefox it works fine).

Please use the following test link:

www.martinezmier.es/web/101-noticias/ultimos-articulos/3022-protagonistas-del-albacete-granada-los-entrenadores

Can you try with a different mp3 file? Actually try an mp3 from a different server than this. As you can see the mp3 player is working fine in our demo page at demo.joomlaworks.net/allvideos so probably something is wrong with the specific files or the server that is serving them.

I have been able to solve the issue.

It is very very curious. After Reading your answer Lefteris I remembered that I put an anti-leech rule in the .htaccess of the server hosting the MP3s files in this way:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www.domain1.tld/.*$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www.domain1.tld$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www.domain2tld/.*$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www.domain2.tld$ [NC]
.....
RewriteRule .*\.(jpg|jpeg|gif|png|bmp|mp3|wav|wma)$ - [F,NC]

My test domain (martinezmier.es) was not on the list of allowed domain (domain1.tld, domain2.tld, .....) but I was able to reproduce .MP3 files with ALLVIDEOS from MS IEXPLORE and FIREFOX but not from CHROME!!!

Now I have included the test domain onto .htaccess and Works fine with all browsers but.... why it Works previously with IE and Firefox ??

My issue is solved now but what an strange behaviour!!!

Probably other browsers had cached the request that's why it was working.
