Add-On Releases - Mp3player block for CMPS

Hello!

This is simple mod to add mp3-player block to your CMPS portal page or your forum.

1. you must download from http://www.longtailvideo.com/players/jw-flv-player/ your non-commercial license and without virtal plugin.

2. make one directory (mediaplayer) on your server root and upload downloaded files (unpack before) - yourdomain.com/mediaplayer

3. make one subdirectory (mp3) in your mediaplayer directory - yourdomain.com/mediaplayer/mp3 - there you can upload your songs.

4. with notepad make your playlist.xml file and upload in mediaplayer directory

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<playlist version="1" xmlns="http://xspf.org/ns/0/">
 
<trackList>
<track>
  <title>mp3_1 title</title> 
  <location>http://yourdomain.com/mediaplayer/mp3/name_song1.mp3</location> 
</track>
<track>
  <title>mp3_title</title> 
  <location>http://yourdomain.com/mediaplayer/mp3/name_song2.mp3</location> 
</track>
 
<track>
  <title>mp3_3 title</title> 
  <location>http://yourdomain.com/mediaplayer/mp3/name_song3.mp3</location> 
</track>
 
<track>
 <title>mp3_4 title</title>
 <location>http://yourdomain.com/mediaplayer/mp3/name_song4.mp3</location>
</track>
</trackList>
</playlist>

6. Now you can go to your Admin cp - VBa CMPS - add new module -

a. module title - mp3-player (or what you want)
b. template to include - adv_portal_player (just write player)
c. If you are adding a new template to use with this module, please specify the style you would like to add this template to here.
d. Templete content - add this

<tr>
<td class="$bgclass"> <center><embed
  src="http://yourdomain.com/mediaplayer/player.swf"
  width="470"
  height="20"
  bgcolor="#ffffff"
  allowscriptaccess="always"
  allowfullscreen="true"
  flashvars="file=http://yourdomain.com/mediaplayer/playlist.xml&backcolor=FFE87C"/></center> 
</td>
</tr>

just change in code above "yourdomain.com" to your site. (two places) and change color code if you want some another color!

e. use wrap module - yes
f. edit your usergroups permissions
g. SAVE

After just select position of your new module (recommend central position) and save.

That is all and hope that you will like it!

you can try play with this part of code

and change maybe to "170" and put block on side (left or right) - but i not tested this posibillity.

do not really understand ... but if you want autoplay function - just add in code this

&autostart=true

and should looks like

flashvars="file=http://yourdomain.com/mediaplayer/playlist.xml&backcolor=FFE87C&autostart=true"/>

I cant seem to figure out where the drop down menu comes from. I can only toggle through my tracks with the button. I cannot see the song title or select any of them from the list.
