This link responds an mp3 file and can download by wget(1) also that downloaded local file can play by Firefox, but Firefox can't play it use URL, instead of Firefox prompts me to download its URL.

I find out one solution but not work in my case.

My media.play-stand-alone is true, I no find out any usage of media.directshow.enabled so I no try it.

I run on Debian Stretch, my Firefox version is Mozilla Firefox 60.2.0

The problem here is that the server responds with a request header Content-Disposition: attachment that tells your browser to offer a download dialog instead of showing/playing the file inline.

$ curl -I 'https://fanyi.baidu.com/gettts?lan=en&text=A%20cross%20platform%20clipboard%20operation%20library%20of%20Python&spd=3&source=web'

HTTP/1.1 200 OK

Cache-Control: max-age=3600

Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=tts.mp3

Content-Length: 9576

Content-Type: audio/mpeg

…

See the documentation for this header at MDN for more information.

In a regular HTTP response, the Content-Disposition response header is a header indicating if the content is expected to be displayed inline in the browser, that is, as a Web page or as part of a Web page, or as an attachment, that is downloaded and saved locally.

Now your question essentially is How to ignore the Content-Disposition header? which has been previously asked on Stack Overflow, with several recommendations, including the Open in Browser extension.

Have you ever been annoyed when you wanted to see a document and the download popup appears which forces you to select an external application to view it?

This extension allows you to open the document directly in your browser.
