vbMp3 Player + XEON vbMp3 Player See second Message for CMPS Block version for vbMp3 Player. XEON vBa CMPS install instructions are in the XEON package.  ----  vbMp3 Player designed by Syrus XL http://www.digitalport.co.uk IMPORTANT: No longer supported on here - if you require advice or support then this is only available from www.digitalport.co.uk Requirements: Any vBulletin forum (requires no database to function) XEON Update: The Xeon vBmp3 player will be released soon to full vBulletin integration, this means you will able to add tracks to the 5 playlists from the AdminCP, all urls,track titles and playlists are stored in the database. [high]Supporters:[/high] If you would like to support my work with this modification please contact me via PM regarding donations, and I will add you to the supporters list. You will receive advanced notice of future beta releases, and also permission to beta test them.  Support: Only given to members that have clicked 'Installed'. [high]The 'mighty' XEON vbMp3 player now available for download.[/high] Note: XEON is a beta release, replacing the 'Black Gloss' version. There are a few bugs with playlist switching, these will be 'fixed' in an update, hopefully within the next few days. This is a high-quality designed mp3 player and has many new features that the iPod 'lookalike' lacks. If you have the space, I would recommend you update to the Xeon version. The vBa CMPS XEON version is also demonstrated at this address, [high]Click HERE for Xeon vbMp3 Demo[/high], this demo is using the full vBulletin integrated beta version all populated from the vb database. XML Editing: To change track data, edit the XML files with Notepad or Wordpad, and enter your own urls and tracks. XEON Facts & Features:
*XEON Known issues: 1. A bug on XEON means I had to currently release it only in a beta stage. The issue relates to playlist switching, this has been currently set to only 5 playlists, the bug relates to when you click to load a new playlist, you may recieve no autostart upon new playlist load. This 'issue' I am working on, and hopefully have an updated version with unlimited playlists, by deleting the 5-button bank and replacing it with forward and back buttons to skip through playlists. Please note you may experience strange behaviour if you only populate a XML playlist with less than 5 tracks. 2. A sizing problem in the vBa CMPS block requires reversed dimensions. 3. Problem with populating any playlist with over 100 tracks, will cause the player to go into an infinite loop, and become unstable. [high]This was not caught during the 1,000 'dummy' track environment test.[/high] XEON Fixed Issues: An issue with the popup window displaying the height and width the wrong size is now fixed. XEON vbMp3 Player Installation: The Xeon uses very similar installation code to the vbMp3 Player, full instructions are included in the XEON download package. This player has been tested with the forthcoming vBulletin full integration Pro Mp3 player, soon to be released. For Pro Player details see towards the end of this post. XEON vbMp3 Player in CMPS: This is now been added to the XEON package. Full instructions on how to change the background color to match your style is also documented. vbMp3 Player This mp3 player is designed as a popup for your members to listen to, while browsing your website. The actual flash mp3 player is designed to read data from mp3 ID tags, or you can enter the artist and tracks manually using the XML file included. The flash player is designed not to auto-start, so you may scroll through all available tracks. All buttons function and you can also select tracks by using the scroll controls and double-clicking a track. 2 sample tracks are already included the playlist XML file {Note: The urls in the example tracks are void, you must replace these urls with your own}. This modification should function on any vBulletin board from version 3.0 upwards, since only a small piece of javascript is used to create the popup mp3 player window, from the navbar. However, the CMPS block version has only beem tested on vBulletin 3.6 and vBadvanced CMPS 2.2. The planned major addon version will be developed for vBulletin 3.6.1 and higher, since it will require changes to database. Configuring of tracks is all done in the XML file, do not rename this file because the flash file will fail. Mp3?s can be uploaded to the same server as your site or an external site (just change the complete URL in the XML file). So to add tracks all you need to do is edit the plylist.xml file, and enter the urls and track data (if needed). NOTE: Using external servers may cause the player to run slower, this can be changed by altering the soundbuffer value of the song/track, in the XML file, which will override the value in the flash file. Streaming & Sound Buffer parameters in the XML file There are 2 parameters they may confuse some people so heres an explanation on how they work. Both can be set in the XML file and set per mp3 track. Streaming: If set to 'False' will cause the player to download an entire mp3 before playing. If set to 'True' will play the mp3 track as soon as the 'soundbuffer' value is reached. Sound Buffer: This parameter controls the number of seconds before the mp3 will start to play, obviously it will only work if 'streaming' is set to 'True'. Using other mp3 Players: The coding used on this modification can be used with many other free or commercial based mp3 players around the internet, with slight alterations. Please note that the other full integrated version will only work with the players we release, due to the call routines used within the player. UPDATES: [high]06/10/06:[/high] + XEON vbMp3 Player released This is a high-quality design, all graphics are vectors, and created in Flash 8.0, all embedding code has been updated for this player.

yes, please let me know what that should look like. I'm a total n00b.

Because you have your CMPS installed in the root of your domain the code will need to be changed to reflect that the player and XML files are in the forum directory. The code you need to change is the relative path to the player .swf and also the .js file for it to work from the same .swf.

 Anyway, try this... Replace the code in the adv_portal_xeonplayer template of the style you are using with this: HTML Code:
<!-- Start XEON vbMp3 Player --> <tr> <script type="text/javascript" src="/forums/flashobject.js"></script> </tr> </thead> <tr> <td class="$getbgrow"> <!-- js flashobject --> <div align="center" width="100%" id="xeon_player"> Warning!!! To view the XEON vbMp3 Player please enable JavaScript and Flash! </div> <script type="text/javascript"> var fo = new FlashObject("/forums/xeon_vbmp3Player.swf", "xeon_player", "400", "450", "8,0,0,0", "#E1E4F2"); fo.addParam("quality", "high"); fo.write("xeon_player"); </script> <!-- js flashobject --> </td> </tr> <!-- End XEON vbMp3 Player -->

These current versions will work on vBulletin 3.6 and above, as they do not require database table alterations. The instructions will be the same, for most vBulletin versions. The one due to be released is completely different, not in looks but as in functions and fully integrated into vBulletin's database. This would need testing on vb3.6.1 because we've only tested it on 3.6.2. So you're in luck! Go ahead and give your site a new look!
