821860 - Unable to save mp3 files to device since integrated audio player was added

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 791654

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Scott Garman]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:17.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/17.0
Build ID: 20121129165506

Steps to reproduce:

I would like to download an mp3 file from zencast.org.

Go to http://zencast.org

Pick one of the direct download links to various mp3 files.





Actual results:

If you simply click on the link, the mp3 file will begin playing in the browser. The browser media player does not appear to offer any option to save the file being played.

Alternately, if you long-press on the direct download mp3 link, there are no options for saving the file to your device. The only options I see are "Open Link in New Tab" (which again plays the file in the browser), "Copy Link", "Share Link", and "Bookmark Link".



Expected results:

I would like some discoverable way to save the file to my device. This was the default behavior which occurred before the media player was added to Firefox for Android.
