This is the initial release of a lil’ greasemonkey script I cooked up.
requirements -
firefox browser
greasemonkey add-on
1pixelout created a fantastic means of embedding mp3 files into sites so visitors could stream music w/out hosts exposing the link to the site. Anybody that *really* wanted the file could contact the site’s owner or dig around w/view source to find the link and download the file themselves.
This eliminates that hassle.
Transforming the embedded player from something like this:
to fully sourced hrefs like this:
The screencaps show a demonstration from a recent post from a fairly popular blog to show how it works.
Known issues:
Certain sites (like, the fader) use the same ID name for every occurence of the audio player on the screen. this means that all links will show up under the first link. I’ll fix that before the full release. Consider this, a “soft opening.”
If you download, use it and run into any issues not listed above, let me know what you think about it by dropping a comment. Also, you can customize it to run on certain sites and exclude others via standard greasemonkey management.
