Browser: don't stop playback when switching tab

Boom, I made the code, now someone can submit it to Harbour :) Please give me a little credit, though.

Thanks a lot! What sort of credit did you have in mind? :)

Just mention my username in the app description or something if you will :)

Edit: By the way, have you tried QuickRadio or SailWave? Those are available on the Jolla Store.

Yes, I have. They just have the issue of requiring inputting radio stations by hand and I know no station in Finland that makes the stream address easily available on their own websites. I have no idea about QuickRadio, but SailWave had no presets and even if it had, it wouldn't probably have anything I would listen so the presets would just annoy me.

Y-Radio might be an option, but as the name says, it's only for YLE and I usually don't listen their stations.

@jollailija I have no idea how to compile that code and why you don't send it to harbour by yourself? Unless I misunderstood something, it's free.

This isn't a solution as this is bug with the default browser and also introduces new issues:

• radiot.fi doesn't play at all with Web Pirate and apparently scrolling etc. is entirely impossible.
• Web Pirate suffers from the exact same bug unless I misunderstand this issue.
• Default browser cannot be changed yet (without hacks in developer mode that I would probably have to do)

Unfortunately, Web Audio doesn't work with QML WebView (the last time I have checked it was disabled along with HTML5 audio and video tags).

The only workaround that I know is to grab direct links and give it to a Video/Audio/MediaPlayer QML objects, WebPirate works in this way.

@jollailija: Don't give up, using a WebView is the right way! Of course you can't play audio/video directly with it. If you want to target to that website only, you can grab direct links using a user javascript inside your WebView and send it to a QML Audio object (like I said above).

I'm happy to help you, if you want!

@Dax Some help would be useful, as I am just a young starting hobbyist. Also, I think my app doesn't work for both of the reasons I said before: Audio and the rendering of the buttons (on the website). The latter isn't that big of a deal as the audio should start automatically anyway if it worked.

Also, the whole rendering of the website is pretty bad with WebView, what if I abandoned that and instead went with a list view of the radio stations? The UI could be like the Media player's. I can do the UI but I will need help with getting the audio working.

@jollailija: The Audio element is easy to use, look here: http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qml-qtmultimedia-audio.html Yes, you can also use a ListView element for radio stations.
