Soundcloud Redirects Https -> Http

Question

I have a page using the SoundCloud js sdk to stream audio. The initialization looks like this:

SC.initialize({
    client_id: myId,
    redirect_uri: "https://" + window.location.host + "/soundcloud-callback"
});

The page uses SC.whenStreamingReady, SC.get and SC.stream in a way equivalent to the following:

// Wait for SoundManager
SC.whenStreamingReady(function() {
    soundManager.onready(function() {

        // Get track metadata and stream the track itself
        SC.get("https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/" + audioId, function(data) {
            SC.stream(data.stream_url, {...});
        });
    });
});

The problem is that SC.stream requests an https page ("https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/" + audioId + "/stream") but is 302 redirected to an http page (http://ec-media.soundcloud.com/...). Audio still works, but I don't get a satisfying lock in my browser bar (and this one request is the only thing stopping that).

Am I doing something wrong?

Answer 1

This has been fixed now.

Try navigating to a random track from https

 https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/82686108/stream?client_id=YOUR_CLIENT_ID 
 // will redirect you to  
 https://ec-media.soundcloud.com/SQyhrPCMQJyQ.128.mp3?%some_uuid%&AWSAccessKeyId=%amazon_access_key%&Expires=%expires%&Signature=%siganture%

And with http

 http://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/82686108/stream?client_id=YOUR_CLIENT_ID 
 // will redirect you to  
 http://ec-media.soundcloud.com/SQyhrPCMQJyQ.128.mp3?%some_uuid%&AWSAccessKeyId=%amazon_access_key%&Expires=%expires%&Signature=%siganture%
