Dear Amy, thank you very much for your wonderful tutorial! I truly excited to see how the series continues! :D I followed the tutorial and everythings works for me but the duration read out. After following your 49:29 step I still get sometimes "NaN" when I reload the page, and once I start playing the audio it updates itself. I noticed that around 55:07 of this video you also encountered this error, but then it dissappears. Do you maybe have an idea of why it happens? Thank you again for your channel and the podcast! :D

[@SelfTeachMe]

Angela // Good catch! -- and sorry for the confusion. I'll pin your comment and address this in an upcoming video in this series, but there's actually a built-in event listener that you can hook into instead of using a useEffect. It's called onLoadedMetadata. So, within the audio component, you might say: -- meaning it calls the onLoadedMetadata function once the metadata is loaded. I'm actually using this method on the Compressed.fm site. You can check out the source code here (direct link to the actual audio player component): github.com/ahaywood/compressedfm/blob/master/nextjs/src/modules/shared/components/AudioPlayer/WaveformPlayer.js#L48 Let me know if you continue to run into issues.

Good catch! In a follow up video on debugging (kzbin.info/www/bejne/bGXRXoBsjJWkgac), I realized the code should have been: Number(progressBar.current.value) + 30; -- You want to cast the progressBar.current.value to a number before adding 30.

🙌🏻 Awesome! Glad you were able to get everything to work.

[@paxdriver]

I find it's easier to learn to code if I re-write examples like this video from scratch on my own after watching it, rather than writing from memory or copying blocks trying to produce it from nothing. I find that by only using known-good code when I get stumped as a reference, and taking the time to muddle through on my own, that's the best education one can get in this field. Because that way you know how to do many variations, not just one example. It's much slower, but you'll remember it forever

[@girornsveinsson7970]

Thanks for a great video - very helpful. One question though. The progress in the progress bar currently jumps every second instead of expanding smoothly. This become visually more obvious with a larger width of the progress bar and an audio with a short duration. Is there a way to modify it to have a visually smoother progress?

[@girornsveinsson7970]

I found a very easy solution to this issue by simply adding " step='0.05' " to the input tag.

[@SelfTeachMe]

Awesome! Smart solution!

[@AmodeusR]

Thanks for this video, it helped me a bit in doing a music player challenge. Animating the progress bar didn't work very well because the method you showed was very memory have and even had a memory leak somehow, though 🤔Not sure why, but I changed the method to update the currentTime with a setInterval. It worked like a charm haha!

[@germanulrich6741]

It is better to use onEnded , onTimeUpdate , and onLoadedData of the audio element instead of useEffect to detect changes in those values

Thanks a mil! I was wondering if you could link or explain how the prevValue works on a variable pulled from state but not from the state itself? I don't really see anything like that in the component lifecycle documentation (or maybe i did but i'm missing the point lol). I've done similar before in react but I thought i was just hacking around and causing the issue myself, but evidently "it's a feature" lol

So awesome... thank you very much. I had a good amount of knowledge but am self taught on Reactjs (even though I've been a developer for many years) and you really filled in some major gaps for me!! Did you say you were going to do one with visualization? Also, I would love to apply but it doesn't look like you guys hire older people, especially a female older developer :( Its been very hard to find work as I still have a good decade before retiring but if you're not young... one gets overlooked a TON. You say your people encourage side projects but do they encourage well rounded experienced older developers?

[@lewiswardita9902]

Hey Amy, just a quick one. at 42:00 you say to create a const prevValue that can be used so the toggle button works correctly when playing etc. Is there any reason you don't use useEffect(( => { if (isPlaying){ audioPlayer.current.play() } else { audioPlayer.current.pause() } }) , [isPlaying]) ?? or it's just not best practice using useEffect maybe?

[@SelfTeachMe]

Lewis // This is a great question. The code you wrote should work. This is an example of there's more than one way to do things. I didn't use a useEffect because it's setting up a listener (for isPlaying) when I already know exactly when it's going to change. However, if you ever needed to extend isPlaying and need to control it elsewhere, your use case would be perfect. Recently, I discovered a Learn with Jason episode, where they made an Audio Player within React: www.learnwithjason.dev/build-a-custom-accessible-audio-player with source code: github.com/learnwithjason/accessible-react-audio-player It's kind of interesting because he uses React's synthetic event handler, `onPlay` to set the state (specific line of code): github.com/learnwithjason/accessible-react-audio-player/blob/4ed52b799002291b50ac1a5bc06fef73b6b69733/src/components/audio-player.js#L104

Hi Amy. Thanks for this great video. You are a good teacher and the way you work is very calming and effective. I also like the way you reason why you are doing what you are doing. TWO THUMBS UP!! I was able to resolve many of the issues I was having but one. I notice that when I hit the 'forwardThirty' button once it moves ahead 30 seconds... but If I hit it again.. it goes to the end of the file regardless of the file size. The 'backThirty' button works great. Also, I a curious if you can proved info on how I can play audio files not hosted on a CDN or remote. Can I play files stored locally in a folder with the React files? I tried and was not able to get it to work. Keep up the good work. I am looking forward to your next video. :)

Hi Amy. great video. i have been trying to find a good React video on the audio player and i am glad i found yours. i am following along and the design is coming along great. I am having issues though... trying to get the audio stream to play - (1) i am getting CORB errors and (2) when I try to use the '.play()' function I am getting an error: TypeError: Cannot read property of undefined (reading 'play'). I am setting up the play options just as you coded it: I am using the 'useRef' hook for - audioPlayer, and I am setting up the pause-play as such: { isPlaying ? : } if (isPlaying) { audioPlayer.current.play() } else ... The error comes at the play() function, after 'current'. It is not recognised. I know that play() is a part of HTML, but not sure why I am getting the error.

[@earxe7712]

I had the same error you didnt define the audioPlayer using "ref". Also to track the metadata you will need to preload it to work when pause.

[@wittespiegel1212]

excuse me, you made a very fascinating and helpful tutorial, but could you help me with this minor bug? Everything works greatly but the progress bar is glitched. When I first play the audio, it doesn't appear. It just appears only when I double click on the play button. Is that the problem of the animation?

I'd need a little more context to be able to troubleshoot. Do you have your code posted somewhere so I can look at it in context?

@@SelfTeachMe Oh wow, thank you Amy, that would be super! I know about the audio thing, it's just the autoplay feature I am trying to get to work and it seems like Safari is the only one which doesn't like it. I don't have a Git repo at the moment but will make one ASAP and let you know once it's up. Thank you so much!

@@charlie-george awesome! I’ll keep an eye out for it.

I haven't looked at this for a few weeks so have forgotten where I'm at with it. Just loading it again on my portfolio, it isn't actually working on Chrome either! charlie-george.com
