After I modify the shortcode it stopped working, why?
When you modify the text the wordpress editor could insert invisible markup. To remove that markup you can copy the shortcode to notepad, and than copy it back from notepad to wordpress editor.
Why this player does not play media file from remote url?
Due to web browser security policy it does not allow to read and process audio which located on remote host. The exception are files where “Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *” is present, such files can be played remotely.
