how to make play/stop button for 2 radio stream on the same page?

I made 2 buttons for my radio streams, each one act like a PLAY/STOP button.

  1. play/stop for stream 1 (shoutcast or icecast)
  2. play/stop for stream 2 (shoutcast or icecast)

This is what i did, hen you press on both buttons, only 1 stream (funk) is played, the second one is not playing at all (disco)

can you help me please? thank you Tony

var player1 = document.querySelector('audio');
var player2 = document.querySelector('audio');
var playBtn1 = document.querySelector('#play-btn_funk');
var playBtn2 = document.querySelector('#play-btn_disco');


playBtn1.addEventListener('click', function() {
	if ( player1.paused ) {
		player1.play();
		playBtn1.src = 'img/stop_funk.png';
	} else {
		player1.pause();
		playBtn1.src = 'img/play_funk.png';
	}
});

playBtn2.addEventListener('click', function() {
	if ( player2.paused ) {
		player2.play();
		playBtn2.src = 'img/stop_disco.png';
	} else {
		player2.pause();
		playBtn2.src = 'img/play_disco.png';
	}
});

Solution

  • Your code looks good already. It just needs a minor tweak.

    The player1 and player2 variables reference exactly the same <audio/> element. document.querySelector() will search the DOM for the first matching element which is #funk in your case. Just replace the first two lines with an explicit query for each player.

    var player1 = document.querySelector('#funk');
var player2 = document.querySelector('#disco');
