No example tracks are included in this version.

*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!

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

Does this problem persist on all playlists? There is a automatic cut-off when any playlist reaches 100 tracks, but this shouldn't cause the problem you are experiencing.

I'm just testing the Upgrade files I've been writing this evening for this modification, so you may want to hold off until I've updated the whole package on here. The main update fixes most of the problems people have experienced with this hack, and a few other functions have been added.

Latest version released: 3.5.1

Many issues fixed. I left the old version online for test purposes - but it will be deleted very soon.

Enjoy!

Did you do the additional template edit required for v3.5.1? It's list under Upgrading.

It will give that error if that line is missing from the headinclude template.

Easily overlooked my friend. Perhaps I should make it clearer in the instructions since I was in a rush to get this version out.

I have installed zoints local and synergy , will this interfere in any way if I were to install this mp3 player?

Zoints Local shouldn't have any problems with this mod. I am guessing Synergy is a style? If the style uses a non-vbulletin default navbar then the popup code would require a slight alteration.
