Embed media player for all platforms

Post by Jim of Seattle »

Hi. I'm looking for a way to have an embedded media player on a web page that will:
1. Allow a user to play a whole album and jump around among a list of tracks
2. Work on browsers AND smartphones
3. Not require Flash

Seems I can only figure out how to get two of these three things.

Anyone know how?
Here's my record label page thingie with stuff about me if you are so interested: https://greenmonkeyrecords.com/jim-of-seattle/

I'm using this one on http://somesongs.org/ :

http://www.schillmania.com/projects/soundmanager2/

I was using that on http://sfjukebox.org/ originally too but a few months ago I switched to this one:

http://jplayer.org/

They both are supposed to automatically detect HTML5 support and use that when available, and otherwise fall back to Flash when appropriate.
