Enabling autoplay

If you’re here it’s because your browser is stopping our player from continuing playback across pages. It’s doing to stop websites playing audio without your permission, which is something you’d generally want.

On SoundCarrot.com however it means if you click play on an episode and change pages, playback will stop – which I think we’d not want to happen.

Allowing autoplay on soundcarrot.com will mean you can listen to episodes whilst browsing our pages. It’s fairly easy to do, and won’t affect any other websites.

Instructions for Safari and Firefox below…
