anyone have solution of that??

You can take a look at my site but you need to register to use the MP3 player. I have it set up so the actual player runs in a child window and the user interface is located on all of my forum pages. This allows the user to go from page to page without the music being interrupted

This took a lot of work

fyi...the music does not start when a user first gets online...they start the player and get to pick what they want to listen to from over 300 hit songs...all legal and licensed by BMI and ASCAP. I pay the bill so there is no charge to the users

No. I took a Wimpy (that's the brand name) MP3 Player and made extensive changes to it and then created a GUI in a forum HTML block widget with the look and feel of the rest of my site style. Now it is integrated seamlessly. Then I added handshake logic to control the child window player with the main window GUI

I also added a My Favorites function for each user to create a playlist of their favorites as well as a full history of what songs were played. This history is updated real time and is viewable via the icons in the left hand CMS HTML widget I created. I added other features as well

Would a Swish Jukebox app do all that for me?

Keep in mind that most if not all MP3 player apps will stop working the minute you go from one page on your forum site to another because they are tied to a specific page. That means you must remain on the page for as long as you want the player to play without it stopping. My approach using a child window allows the user to go to any page on my site with no interruption of the music. So if you start a song while viewing a forum you can then go to the arcade and play Asteroids without the music missing a beat.

No it would not but, it is customizable to match most color styles. It's nothing but a fully configurable mp3 player that plays files from your server.

The one thing it is really good for is using it as a podcaster with from one to ever how many podcasts you want to put in it.

It ain't got all that fancy stuff you mentioned. Thank goodness or I wouldn't be using it
