Hi,  
I’m planning to launch an audio community and was looking at audio player options in Discourse. There don’t seem to be any out-of-the-box solutions.

Would it be possible to integrate a player like the [Podigee Podcast Player](http://podigee.github.io/podigee-podcast-player/) or [Podlove Web Player](https://docs.podlove.org/podlove-web-player/) so that any link to an audio file in a post would appear in that player?

I don’t know anything about Discourse coding, but from Podigee’s Github it seems like all that would be needed is to wrap an audio file URL in [some code](https://github.com/podigee/podigee-podcast-player#inline-configuration).

```plaintext
window.playerConfiguration = {
      "episode": {
        "media": {"mp3": "https://example.com/episode-1.mp3"},
        "title": "Transcript Test"
      }
    }
    <script class="podigee-podcast-player" src="https://cdn.podigee.com/podcast-player/javascripts/podigee-podcast-player.js" data-configuration="playerConfiguration"></script>

```

[Similarly for Podlove](https://docs.podlove.org/podlove-web-player/installation.html). Is it difficult to detect audio files and do this?
