Rikaisama with audio on mac? - kraemder - 2014-11-30
I just bought a mac mini. I'm sure there's quiet pc's out there but I've had noisy tower pc's all my life and I'm in heaven right now, except for the learning curve. Anyway.
Is it possible to enable the play audio function in Rikaisama for Firefox on a mac? (when you press F) I would think so since it's downloading the audio to a directory if I hit the S for save button.

It's possible, because I have it working on my iMac. Unfortunately I can't recall how to set it up.
I'm using it on an old version of FireFox (3.6.28) because, if I remember correctly, the update broke the audio function.

some time ago.
It is still working for me (Firefox 32.0.3, Rikaisama 20.3)
- download MPlayerX (it should be version 0.9.6, since later versions seem to break this tweak) and install it normally in the Applications folder.
- locate the mplayer binary inside the MPlayerX application bundle. Its path is:
/Applications/MPlayerX.app/Contents/Resources/binaries/x86_64/mplayer
- In a Terminal window, create a symbolic link in the /usr/local/bin directory pointing on the mplayer binary file:
sudo ln -s /Applications/MPlayerX.app/Contents/Resources/binaries/x86_64/mplayer /usr/local/bin/mplayer
- the "F" key should now trigger the audio as expected.
Hope this helps.
