Naxos Music Library Introduces New Media Player

Naxos Music Library is excited to announce the  release of a brand new media player! Here she is: (drum roll please...)

Created in HTML5, this new player sidesteps limitations of the old Flash player and makes room for further growth in the future. So aside from the sleek new design, what exactly does the new player offer?

1. More mobile accessibility. HTML5 cooperates far better with mobile devices than Flash does. Is a mobile app not yet available for your tablet or phone? For most users, this new player will work through your main mobile internet connection—no app needed! Simply log in and access music on your mobile internet browser just as you would on your computer.

2. More track information. The HTML5 player displays more information for each track, allowing you to find just the one you need. This is especially helpful when streaming, say, a disc or playlist full of Vivaldi works where half the tracks are simply titled “Allegro.” Now track lists in the player will include the rest of the work title so you can quickly identify which of those Allegros is THE Allegro.

3. More flexibility in player size. Previously, the player stayed the same size no matter how you expanded the window. Now, the player design adjusts to better fit the size of the window.

The dirty details: Our new HTML5 player is supported in the following browser versions.  If you're not seeing the new player, it's likely you're running an older version of your browser.  A quick update should allow you to enjoy NML's new experience right away!
