 * I like your player, but the download function does not appear to be working. 
   When I click on the Download Button creates an empty version of the target file
   on my local PC. You can experience the problem for yourself at [http://sjbmen.org/marriage-and-the-eucharist/](http://sjbmen.org/marriage-and-the-eucharist/).
   Your advice would be appreciate.

 * Hi,
    The problem seams to be on the file… I just tried to point directly to it
   and it doesn’t show in the browser; try it yourself pasting the url in the address
   bar: [http://www.sjbmen.org/documents/2013-05-21-Fr-VanDenBroeke-Marriage-And-The-Eucharist.mp3](http://www.sjbmen.org/documents/2013-05-21-Fr-VanDenBroeke-Marriage-And-The-Eucharist.mp3)

 * Matteo,
 * I shortened the file name – it now plays fine in the player and will open if 
   you click on the URL [http://sjbmen.org/documents/2013-05-21-Fr-VanDenBroeke-Marriage-Eucharist.mp3](http://sjbmen.org/documents/2013-05-21-Fr-VanDenBroeke-Marriage-Eucharist.mp3)
 * The file will still not download when using the download button, however. The
   problem seems to be related to the file size. The size of this file is 84MB.
 * I tested the download button with a smaller mp3 file in this post and it works
   fine [http://sjbmen.org/relativism-versus-truth/](http://sjbmen.org/relativism-versus-truth/)
 * The download function in the plug-in does not appear to be working for larger
   files.

 * I’m having the same problem. I want to allow my visitors to download mp3 files,
   but it appears that the plugin won’t allow them to do so on files over 30mb. 
   Is this an issue that is being worked on?

 * Hi,
    This is an issue that I can’t solve as it depends by the web server you 
   are running on.
 * You should check for a solution on your server side.

 * What is the issue you believe to be on the “server side”? The file downloads 
   just fine using the URL, so this does not appear to be a problem with the server.
