I am playing mp3 files on the JW player but i am facing a strange problem. JW player is playing mp3 files having mime type "audio/mpeg" but it is failed to play mp3 files having mime type "audio/x-mpeg". It is such a strange problem for me because both files are mp3 JW player should play both.

I have also tried to convert mp3 file to mp3 file using ffmpeg in php but it is still producing mp3 file having mime type "audio/x-mpeg". exec(ffmpeg -i $input_file -vn -ar 44100 -ac 2 -ab 192k -f mp3 output.mp3)

one thing i need to mention that this file type is generating from ios app. I am stuck from 2 days in this issue. Your help would be really appreciated . Thanks

@Hitesh i am recording audio on ios app and its audio is generating in mp3 and its mime type is audio/x-mpeg . I have tried to convert this mp3 using ffmpeg but still it is generating mp3 having mime type audio/x-mpeg. I need mp3 file having mime type audio/mpeg to play in jw palyer. While when i record audio on the same apple device using browser this file is playing normally after converting from ffmpeg. – john
Yes, that is obvious, but either way you are executing the ffmpeg binary and it will output useful info to stderr. You should provide this info. – llogan

You need to keep the mp3 with supported mime type.

Jwplayer does not support audio/x-mpeg format. Check here

Update:

1) audio format for iOS and Android

2) What are the audio-format encoders that Android and iOS have in common?

Hope this helps
