that player looking thing is supposed to just start playing one of those songs and you can clik one in the list to get it to play...
no loggin needed, it takes awhile to load the song, servers are shared i think...
not really looking for podcast just an on page player...
you know like start with a song and clik nother one to play that one...

Wow, some of my favourite artists - don't wanna go to another website  :D ...

Have you only embed the player in a content block?

Global Content Block...





 

found it here...  http://musicplayer.sourceforge.net/ 

if i had something to edit flash i could change the look of it...  it can also be used as a Sidebar in Firefox "So now you have yourself a little music player on your site with whatever music you like and you think to yourself, "Yeah it's great that people can hear my great taste in music on my site, but I want them to hear it no matter what site they visit." Well, there is a solution: the XSPF Music Player Sidebar."  from... http://forevergeek.com/articles/xspf_a_ ... r_site.php

Mark,  check the player in IE.  It plays other peoples music and not what you had selected.  I had this same player
running on a wedding bands website and I kept getting emails from clients saying that the music wasn't for weddings. 

I realized that it was only wrong on IE.  I am viewing your site with IE right now and it has almost 500 songs in the playlist and some of
they are not the kind that you would want people to hear coming from your site I would imagine. 

I have taken the player off of my site about a month ago and haven't gotten the chance to figure out why it doesn't work in IE.
Not sure if it has something to do with how it is embedded in CMSMS or just an IE problem overall.

And I am a fool for not catching this the first time around on my site.

Thanks for posting the fix.

Hi Mark,

If I were to put this below script  in my global content block and call it mp3 player how would I then write it into the template? would it be like this?


 
      {global_content name='mp3 player '}
 
 

Cheers,

Neil

Hi Mark,

I'm completely new to this

Just have to have something in this path, ;playlist_url=/uploads/xspf_player/playlist.xspf">,

does this mean put the line ;playlist_url=/uploads/xspf_player/playlist.xspf">, before the coding in the template or the Globle text script?

change it or put your .xspf in the same place...

i understand that this is written in .xspf but what is my .xspf and again in the same place as the globel script or template?

cheers,

Neil

Hi,

I know this is a reply to a really old topic, but I just stumbled across this and was wondering if someone would be able to help me out.  I'm interested in using the xspf player on my site, but I can't seem to get it to work. The player sites there saying "loading playlist" and nothing happens.  I did a copy 'n paste of the code and made all the paths the same (and changed the domain name  of course).

If anybody has any idea, I would appreciate the hand.

Thanks,
