About Developer · **Released**: 01-10-2005

I want to thank everyone who has supported the original release of this hack and for all the suggestions to make this hack even better

I have spent days on adding all these new features and would like to thank the people who have assisted me to get some of these function to work.

Its back after a long time

This hack will add a whole new dimention to your forums with a Jukebox

3 file edit
1 template edit
1 new db table
1 db table alteration

This hack uses and includes a copy of the [HIS] Hack Installer System (Build 3)
released by Link14716 and can be found here --> https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=71542
My thanks to Link for his one on one time in building the install files for the VB Jukebox

General Features

* The ability to play audio and movie formats - The script will detect both .mpg or .mpeg files and open the media player. If an audio format is played then the media player will stay invisable.

Admin Features

* Upload songs from your browser.
* Unlimited genres.
* Manual data entery for when the uploader fails or for large files.
* At a click will automaticly generate a new thread announcing a song in the jukebox.

* Usergroup permissions for:
--> 1) Who can listen to songs.
--> 2) Who can upload songs.
--> 3) Who can rate songs.

Front End Features

*Members can upload songs, these songs are not available in the jukebox until admin aproval (optional email notification available).
* Callapsable genres (only displays genres that have active songs in them).
* Members can rate songs.

Future Possible Functions

* members favs, this will allow members to add songs to their own favs list and if i can work it out i will try to make it so they can play their favs from start to finish.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR REMOTE SONG HOSTING

OPTION 1

In the admin options where it asks for the folder name enter the full path to the where the songs are stored eg "www.something.com/music folder" NO backslash after.
The Downside to this is that your members canrt upload or add songs to the jukebox and movie files will not work.

OPTION 2
In vb_jukebox.php find each instance of

PHP Code:


			
$playsong = "$vboptions[jb_media_folder]/$playthisong

replace with

PHP Code:


			
$playsong = "$playthisong"

Then enter the full url into the song file field for each song.

hmmm, i just tested it on my forum and it does work

I changed the vb options "Media Folder" to "h**p://srv01.orpbus.com/~admin152/upload/midi"

mekro · #**213** 01-26-2005, 06:03 AM

Sorry for the trouble and yes it does work i was just impatinat for the song to load.

My bad and thanks for the hack it brilliant.

By the way anyway of letting the user know how much of the song is loadded as it can take up to 5 minutes for a song to load and many members think its not loading.

People can always play with the PARAM name "uiMode" settings.

With the following setting Windows Media Player is embedded with the status window, seek bar, play/pause, stop, mute, next, previous, fast forward, fast reverse, and volume controls in addition to the video or visualization window:

HTML Code:

<PARAM Name = "uiMode" Value = "full">

With the following example Windows Media Player is embedded without any visible user interface (controls, video or visualization window):

HTML Code:

<PARAM
NAME="uiMode" VALUE="invisible">

With this example Windows Media Player is embedded with the status window, play/pause, stop, mute, and volume controls shown in addition to the video or visualization window:

HTML Code:

<PARAM NAME="uiMode" VALUE="mini">

With this mode Windows Media Player is embedded without controls, and with only the video or visualization window displayed:

HTML Code:

<PARAM NAME="uiMode" VALUE="none">

you can also make sure that these are set:

HTML Code:

<param name="ShowControls" value="true">
<param name="ShowDisplay" value="true">

If you want to be nice you can let your users choose. The following example creates an HTML SELECT element that allows the user to change the user interface for an embedded Player object (The Player object was created with ID = "Player"):

HTML Code:

<!-- Create an HTML SELECT element. -->
<SELECT  ID = UI  LANGUAGE="JScript"

         /* Specify the UI mode the user selects. */
         onChange = "Player.uiMode = UI.value">

/* These are the four UI mode options. */
<OPTION VALUE="invisible">Invisible
<OPTION VALUE="none">No Controls

<OPTION VALUE="mini">Mini Player
<OPTION VALUE="full">Full Player
</SELECT>

glad to help! I can't do much original with php at this point, but I do know a bit of html ;D

<a href="http://digitalmental.com/bb/vb_jukebox.php" target="_blank">http://digitalmental.com/bb/vb_jukebox.php</a> why are the TOTALS going negative, ie: "-140" for the 50 Cent song... ?

indie · #**219** 01-27-2005, 03:00 AM

Can this be used as a video gallery?

I need something where memebers can upload video clips, and tother members can watch them. Will they play in the browser, or have to be downloaded? Also, if it can be dome, then can "jukebox" be change in the phreases since it would be used for video?

Also can file types be specified? .mov ,etc.

Thanks.

Hi

yoyoyoyo could you explain more as i would like to show the buffering bar etc etc to my members as each song loads, and i can not figure out where to place the codes etc.

I have searched this thread but can not find out any info on this.

Thanks
Kirk

Trafix,
Thank you so much! Easy install and so far no glitches.

One question:
Since I anticipate my song list growing I'm a bit concerned about the length of the entry page. Could you tell me if it is possible to load the page with the categories collapsed instead of opened?

Would it be a matter of modding the template? If so, how?

Thanks again for sharing your work with all of us ... and for your support as well.
