Ahh!
That's nice!
It asks if I want to play with VLC and then it sounds very nice even in stereo (which is
all I have on my pc).
I actually get a strong sense out to about 180 deg either side of me whereas my (cheap
studio reference) monitors are either side of my screen. (all the physical space I
have). About 70 deg apart.

Bill,
I was expecting that Firefox would not attempt to play the file at all ...
strange that it attempts to play the file at all.
What happens if you go to this URL in firefox:

Alls I get it the spinning dots when I press play.
Nothing else.
No sound.

I've been meaning to try out HTML5's capabilities for a while, now seems a

This page hosts an (ambisonicaly decoded) 5.1 file in AAC and AC3 ....
using HTML5 the browser should automatically choose the one it can
support.
InternetExplorer 9 supports AAC, so does Safari and so does Chrome. So
that
covers around 50% of browsers. BUT ... it also covers the two main OSes.
Firefox is the other 50% ... and that means Ogg ... not sure if firefox
supports AC3 but I dont think it does.
The only question is whether or not the Browser can successfully stream
the
5.1 channels to the sound card connected to multiple speakers.
... any reports of success or failure would be appreciated.
