embed audio player in radgrid row?

[Rui]

Hi,

Is there a feature or something I can combine with radgrid to play audio in row when a button in a column is clicked?
I don't want user to leave the page to listen to the audio, best way will be a button column for user to click, once the button is clicked, a play will start inside the column and play a wav file.
Any suggestions?

Thanks
Roy

Hello Rui,

In our next official release we will introduce RadMediaPlayer control that could be used in such scenarios, but for now you may use some other approach for getting such functionality.

For now to implement the desired functionality I would suggest using GridTemplateColumn with HTML5 "audio" tag inside its ItemTemplate:

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
    <ItemTemplate>
        <audio controls="controls"><source src='<%# Eval("audioFileURL") %>' type="audio/x-wav"></audio>
    </ItemTemplate>
</telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

Furthermore, you could also take a look at HTML "object" element for more possible ways to play audio files.

Hope that helps.
