Adding the vbMp3 Player to vBadvanced CMPS

CMPS Installation

These instructions are based on vBulletin 3.6 and using CMPS 2.2

This package contains all files needed to enable the vbMp3 Player to work in a left or right block. To compensate for the default 175px block width, the player dimensions have been reduced, as opposed to the popup version. You may adjust them if you wish to the default values of width 190 by height 430, but note you will also need to change your default CMPS Block width.

The template code uses the supplied flashobject.js to call the vbPlayer.swf, this fixes the issue with view the player in Internet Explorer 6.0 and above. There is some text in the code “Warning!!! To view this vbMp3 Player please enable JavaScript and Flash ! “, this will only display if a person views your site with javascript and flash disabled. You can change this line of text to what you would like to display to visitors. The flashobject.js file will detect if the person has javascript and flash enabled, and will either display the text or the mp3 player automatically.

For Stream & Buffer settings read the main modication details above.

Files included in this package:

vbPlayer.swf
plylist.xml
flashobject.js

Upload these 3 files to the root of your forum, if your main cmps_index.php file is located within the forum directory. Else upload them to domains root directory.

The vbplayer.swf supplied in this package is the autoStart version, meaning it will automatically start buffering the mp3's on page load. It also has 'shuffle' disabled. If you want the 'shuffle' version of the player download the main zip file.
