maybe make the player downsample to 8 bit 8khz audio and put up a warning banner saying "you are using a very old version of java, sound quality will be degraded", or find a ms specific way to play audio (if that is possible from an unsigned applet without breaking use on more modern jvms).
I'd rather not.
- The time it would take to code the downsampling and switching could
be better spent on other parts of the code.
Cortado (which is used in Michael's work) is claimed to work on the old MS VM. If you have access to a computer with this limitation, can you please test and confirm?
- As a contributor I would be upset that users are being given a poor
quality version of my contribution rather than being asked to install improved software.
Well, that's pretty silly.
