Thanks for that. This is now working for all 'playable' media like streaming audio. But if the link is directed to an image in LDM, I get the message 'Invalid filetype specified.'

Any idea how to solve this?

How can I add a youtube video? I installed the flash sites plugin and found a youtube video as a test and added the url for it.

Am I missing something?

Try installing this mod and then embed the video:

The attached is a complete replacement for the online_location_unknown plugin. It should be smart enough to tell the difference between playable media and other files. Let me know. I will make this standard behaviour in 2.3.0

The flash sites plugin seems to work ok for me with youtube. Install it (nb, remember to upload the includes/local_links_flashsite.php file as well) and then create an entry with url that points to a youtube video (i used http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dompotjTeIA). The hyperlink on the LDM entry title shows a "Play Me" popup when you hover over it. Clicking the link takes you to the jukebox and it plays ok.

What is the situation your end?

Thanks, but is it not possible to make all the links direct instead of having the intermediate preview pages? For example, now the direct play links are shown when 'Who's Online' says 'Playing content from LDM', but if the Who's Online display says 'ACCESSING content from LDM' (even for the playable entries) then the INDIRECT links are still shown like before (ie. not taken directly to the embedded page).

I think it would be best to make everything directly link to the entries in Who's Online in order to avoid confusion and make the redirection process efficient. There is also one other problem which will be eliminated if all the links are made direct instead of having the preview pages which use the 'links_main' template.

Different people will want different things. I've now done three versions of this for you, and each time you seem to explain that you want something different. What you are now describing requires loading quite a lot of the LDM infrastructure in order to work out what each user is actually doing and to deal with different combinations of permissions, etc. I don't think that this is justified just to save some people one click.

Thanks. I have upgrade.

If the 'default_sort_order' is set to 'Title (ascending)' for a given category, and the entries in that category are an ascending list of numbers (1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ... 100 ), then LDM does not correctly list these entries in ascending order of numbers. Instead, it lists the numbers like this:

1, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 2, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 3, 30, 31, 32, 33 ...
