Fully compatible and tested on vBulletin 3.6.0, 3.7 and up.

No example tracks are included in this version.

*IMPORTANT: About version 3.6!!*
If you have installed this modification prior to the latest version 3.6, it is recommended that you update to the latest version 3.6 immediately. Older versions contain a Security Hole in the admin section. All database errors have been fixed, special thanks to Code Monkey.

[high]External Data Pull[/high]
This modification is designed to pull data from internal and external servers. Check that you enter full urls to pull external data or the modification will fail to read.

[high]Features:[/high]

• Can hold upto 500 mp3 tracks (5 playlists with 100 tracks in each)
• Automatically cuts off access to playlists if 100 tracks are reached
• All track data held in database
• Volume & Pan(balance) Controls
• Add mp3's through AdminCP or via Popup
• PM system notifcation of new tracks submitted
• Edit/Delete/Approve/Deny tracks via AdminCP
• Usergroup Permissions for adding tracks and viewing of player
• Multi-functional display on mp3 player
• WOL Enabled - see who's using the mp3 player
• Stream and Buffer parameters per track
• Track pre-loading on display

This version is not compatible with the XML driven vbMp3 Player I released awhile ago (you may uninstall or leave in, as this version uses renamed files). The player, and all code have been changed, and now fully utilizes the vBulletin AdminCP for settings, mp3 playlist management, usergroup permissions.

[high]Known Issues:[/high]
None

UPDATING:
Overwrite all files with the new package XEON Mp3 Player v4.0.0
Import the Product XML file using the vBulletin Product Manager. Go to Mp3 Player Management and update settings and Save.

Template edit:
(required on new install or upgrade, unless you have installed other products from us.).
In the headinclude template -
Find:

<script type="text/javascript" src="clientscript/vbulletin_global.js?v=$vboptions[simpleversion]"></script>

Above add:

<script type="text/javascript" src="clientscript/flashobject.js"></script>

If this line of code already exists then DO NOT ADD IT!

End of Update


MAIN INSTALLATION

Installation:
Upload the contents of the ?Upload folder? to your forum root. Import the ?product-mp3player.xml? file via ?Plugins & Products? ? Manage Products ? Import Product in your AdminCP. Press F5 or refresh your browser window to view the Mp3 Player Management menu. Once you install this version make sure you Update the MP3 Management settings and click SAVE, failure to do so will result in an error if you enable the custom PM notification system.

Template Edits:
These edits are based on the default vBulletin style, you may need to change if you have a custom style.


AdminCP -> Styles & Templates -> Navigation / Breadcrumb Templates -> navbar

Find:

<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="calendar.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[calendar]</a></td>

After add:

<!-- Mp3 Player Launch -->
<if condition="$show['member']">
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="javascript:NewWindow=window.open('$vboptions[bburl]/mp3playerindex.php?do=viewmp3playerpopup','newWin','width=500,height=500,left=0,top=0, toolbar=No,location=No,scrollbars=1,status=No,resizable=No,fullscreen=No');
NewWindow.focus(); void(0);">vbMp3 Player</a></td>
</if>
<!-- End Mp3 Player Launch -->

Now, navigate to AdminCP -> Usergroups -> Usergroup Manager ? adjust usergroups permissions as required. Default is all usergroups have no access.

You now have the vbMp3 XEON player installed!

[high]Update notifications can only be sent out if you have clicked 'INSTALL'.[/high]

More players will available shortly.

Enjoy!

All mp3 urls should not contain spaces. Either use no space or an underscore instead. Another problem is quotes, however this will be fixed in the main code update.

This error is where you have not setup the PM settings in the admincp of the mp3 player settings.
You need to put in the admin id number and there admin name when you have done so the error will go.

There is only one problem with this, if we code it to work on the vBa Advanced system to work inside the Forum 'root' and your portal is setup outside the root it would cause a database error. Unless, the block template is edited correctly.

By default all addons are coded for the CMPS installation in the root, the main modiifcation uses a js call that must always point to the forum root, not outside.

not to talk crap or anything. But adding tracks one at a time sux. I use wimpymp3 that I ported to to work with my CMPS. You don't have to add any tracks just make a folder in your mp3 directory and upload the song. thats it.. You can even add cover art. and your own skins. you can see it at my website middle center block. I'm not talking shit about what you have here.. looks great. I love the player and the fact that members can add their own music.

There are many flash-based mp3 players around the net, all with various features. The features you have described are already in development, image upload, etc. If you look back at the XML version, released in September this year, you'll see there's alot planned. As for skinned players, this is also been mentioned before, by uploading a skin via the AdminCP.

Obviously, some features will only be available in a commercial version - but this free one is still in its 'beta' stage, therefore some of the extras haven't yet been added, and a few bugs need fixing. But things like adding a single track at a time, has already changed. Once, we have all the small bugs fixed, it will be released as a full release and out of the 'beta' stage.

When you see releases like the forthcoming vbE-Center, then you may understand why modifications like this mp3 player are just the start of a number of 'imaginative' projects, we release. We already have a video, mp3, tv and radio project in development, which may also incorporate google and youTube.
