# GoogleCode Authentication Request – Player Not Displaying

 * Our site has started showing an “Authentication Required – A username and password
   are being requested by [http://prac-gadget.googlecode.com](http://prac-gadget.googlecode.com).
   The site says: “Google Code Subversion Repository”” notification. On viewing 
   the source, it appears to be related to the display of the audio player. The 
   player doesn’t appear after dismissing the authentication request.

   quality=”best” …></embed></div>
 * Please confirm if an update is in the works.

 * I don’t know where this HTML is coming from but I can guarantee you it’s not 
   from the Publisher. We don’t embed any resources from Google Code. My guess is
   that it is from another plugin.

 * Thanks, Eric. I just received confirmation from someone else who also manages
   portions of the site that they are in fact using an alternative to the standard
   Podlove player. Sorry for the confusion.

 * TChickGall or anyone else using the CodeArt – Google MP3 Player and getting this
   error, I wrote about a solution at: [http://pixelfundi.com/wordpress/wordpress-plugin-codeart-google-mp3-player-not-working-solved/](http://pixelfundi.com/wordpress/wordpress-plugin-codeart-google-mp3-player-not-working-solved/).
 * Briefly, you need to find/download the linked/missing .swf player and host it
   yourself and then update the plugin’s index.php file to use your copy of the 
   file.
 * Good luck!

 * I had this problem and I tried to follow your solution but now my site disappeared(
   I just get a blank page). Two questions:
 * 1. At one point you say:
    Comment out or delete the first path like this: //$
   google_swf_player = ‘http://prac-gadget.googlecode.com/svn/branches/google-audio-
   step.swf’;
 * What does it mean exactly?
 * 2. Should I upload the audio-player.swf in the plugins/google-mp3-audio-player/
   folder?
 * Thanks in advance for your help!
