Audio (MP3) playback with image instead of this plain screen

Hello BT friends. I have an htmlDoc that contains a URL pointing to an MP3 sitting on my web server. When the doc is displayed in the app, and after tapping the URL, the iOS app shows the following screen while it dutifully plays the MP3: http://churchapp.me/churches/cacmobile/images/18-audio-player.jpg What I would like to do is add an image (maybe in the background) instead of all that black space... Can someone point me in the right direction? I'm not even sure what plugin (if any) is doing the playback, or if it is a built in part of a BT app, or a native feature of iOS.

Have you thought about calling the MP3 from within the web page? Take a look at this example (better with safari or chrome): https://www.marianasgps.com/leaves/ I keep a script for this on my server here: https://www.marianasgps.com/public - look for the file called 'leaves.zip'. This might be a viable alternative. Cheers! -- Smug

Impressive example of the idea! Now I have a new angle to consider. I will ponder on this. Thank you!
