Thanks again andrew for your help. LDM will be a major function for my upcoming website that will allow DJs and bands to upload their mp3s and stream them back. I would really like to keep the files out of the webroot so they can't be downloaded.

thanks

This works ok for me - files outside webroot do play fine (just tested it). But versionist and I spent some time trying to sort this out a few months back - maybe there's something I've overlooked. Am happy to take a look at your site, if you want - but I'll need full access.

One problem is that it's not possible to get the track name to display correctly inside the wimpy flash jukebox - this is because of limitations in the wimpy javascript - I've asked the author about this, but he didn't have a fix. So you're stuck with it displaying the name of the LDM script or modifying the skin so that the track title isn't displayed at all, which is the route I chose to use in the wimpy skin that is issued with LDM.
