With really large mp3 files (something like 50mb as the song is 10 minutes at 320) it takes a bit for Howler to fetch the entire file before playback begins. Is there anyway to start playing before the entire stream is fetched (like some sort of "chunk" fetch)?
Yes, use the html5: true property and it will behave exactly like that.
