*IMPORTANT: About version 3.6!!*

[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!

What version of vBulletin are you using? I've never seen this before.

3.6.9

Preferably, I would like non-registrants to be able to view and use the player at Biblocality Forums. On the Navbar should be a link, "Christian Music" for the light ZEON Z4, but it doesn't show up for non-registrants even though I changed the settings in usergroups.

[syrus.xl]

3.6.9 - this is one version that it wasn't checked on (I see there are issues already with this version). It was tested upto 3.6.8 and then 3.7.

You can just remove the IF conditional that surrounds the actual link, this will allow the link to show guests, but not able to add tracks, unless you change the setting in the AdminCP.

[anarki2009]

installed, love this player can see it here: www.clubf100.com

I posted this on the other thread for the Z4 but just in case you check this more. (sorry for the spam ><)

Installed but I am having the problem with the Javascript enabled. I think I have done everything you suggested. Putting the

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

above the

<script type="text/javascript" src="clientscript/vbulletin_global.js?v=$vboptions[simpleversion]"></script>
<if condition="$show['popups']">
<script type="text/javascript" src="clientscript/vbulletin_menu.js?v=$vboptions[simpleversion]"></script></if>
<if condition="$vboptions['externalrss']">

I have put the all the files in the correct corresponding: admincp, includes, and clientscript folders.

Root Folder

> xeon_mp3_beta
> mp3playerindex.php
> mp3playlist.php

Admin CP

> mp3player_admin.php

Clientscript

> flashobject.js

includes -> xml folder

> bitfield_mp3player.xml
> cpnav_mp3player.xml


As you can see from my forums: www.GRevForums.net the Player is at the bottom of the page in a collapsable table. Would this affect the coding I use? - EDIT: Moved it to the navbar instead.


I have viewed all the posts in these boards relating to the javascript error and also looked on your own forums and have tried all the fixes there aswell. The flashobject file is in the clientscript folder, I have tried both relative and absolute urls for the headinclude code. I cant think of anything else I can do to fix it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[syrus.xl]

Can you give me temp access to your site so I can see the mp3 player? I will have a look at the source code for you and check the paths being sent are correct.

Just PM me the temp usr and pwd - and I'll check it for you.

[Dragonahcas]

Thanks PMed you now.

Update: Thanks to syrus.xl its fixed now.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS CODER!

Is anyone else having the same problem with 4.0 where non-registratants can't see the link to the player? even though viewing mp3 for their usergroup is selected?

[sunnypersia]

Nice work
I got a question,
How can i enable JavaScript and Flash to accsses the mp3player?

[Parture]

Is anyone having the same problem as me? I can't see the link to the mp3player for non-registrants, nor can they even view the player, even though I changed their usergroup to view the player. (I had to get rid of the <if></if>)
