This will allow programs to position audio between left and right speakers. May be adding something like HTMLMediaElement(audio/video).panning = 0 | 1.0 | -1.0 would help. -1.0 only left speaker, +1.0 only right speaker 0.0 both speakers. references: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56721 http://www.effectgames.com/effect/article.psp.html/joe/My_HTML5_CSS3_Browser_Wish_List#_section_1_3 http://www.phoboslab.org/log/2011/03/the-state-of-html5-audio http://cromwellian.blogspot.com/2011/05/ive-been-having-twitter-back-and-forth.html 58674 1 ian 2011-10-21 22:49:10 +0000 Proper 3D positioning in Web Audio might be the better way to address this. 62818 2 plh 2012-01-17 21:24:59 +0000 Have a look at 4.14 The AudioPannerNode Interface: http://www.w3.org/TR/2011/WD-webaudio-20111215/#AudioPannerNode-section 66886 3 bmf834 2012-04-20 10:14:14 +0000 closing this bug as it looks like web audio is addressing this.
