Hello,

We are having an issue with our site. We are embedding mp3 files using the embed code (example):
[embed=audio]{"uri":"post:162/Criminal-2-18-16-to-3-9-16.mp3"}[/embed]

When the category page loads, several HTML5 media players open.
Each of them is preloading the files. The size of the mp3s vary, but the preload operation is causing a burden on our server. This is preventing any ability to navigate using any of the links on page, without first having to click the Stop button in the browser.
(See http://mjieducation.mi.gov/civil-impact-podcasts)

Is there a way to embed the files so that the generated <audio> tags appear like <audio controls preload="none">?
As it exists the preload="auto".

Thanks in advance!
Hey Sandi,

If I am not wrong, there is an issue when you are using preload="none" with certain browsers but I have modified this for you in the file /components/com_easyblog/themes/wireframe/blogs/blocks/audio.php

Can you give this a try again?
