Just so it's clear--I fixed the password, not the problem. :)

Is it possible on the ratings to make it mandatory that they leave STARS as well? My members complain that the rating sytem devalue's some of the songs if the person letting a review/comment forgets to let stars.
I would like it to be required they they pick a star rating.

Andrew, have you considered using an FLV player for locally hosted FLV videos?

I'm using one, and it's pretty sweet.

Yes, I'd realised - am back at work now, so will take a look this evening...

Wimpy Flash makes my life easiest...

OK, will add a switch.

I've been thinking for some time about Slave's idea for tag clouds. He'd suggested using keywords as the markers of proximity. I'm wondering about using people's collective "hit" and "rating" patterns - rather like in Amazon, you get suggestions of things you may like based on what you buy and others buy. What would you think about an add-on that helped people find other music they might like?

Is there anyway to make the comments system post to the discussion thread if you're using the auto-thread-create plugin?

I think that would be a great idea.

what he said! :)

Second question first.

As far as I can tell, this is a problem with dear old Internet Explorer. The scrolling problem does not occur with either Firefox or Opera. I wondered if this was possibly due to IE using the <object> tags and the others using the <embed> tags for Flash, but this seems not to make any difference - as soon as you load up 20+ flash tags on the same page, IE slows to a crawl.


Yes, this is down to the coding of the wimpy button.

Have you tried using the other wimpy addin I've supplied, which uses the regular wimpy player inside the jukebox? This would solve both your problems at the same time - there would only be one flash object at a time, and any request to play a new trac would automatically stop the earlier one.
