*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!

Hi there

When syrus uploads the new files the fix is in there for this problem.
Also the redirect in the admincp has been fixed.
Also added multiple uploads of mp3 when adding a new mp3 you can upload 3 mp3's at a time now or when the new files are updated

I just want to clarify something - Does this have a way to actually upload an mp3 or when you say upload are you referring to placing the url location of the MP3?

Also - when is the final version coming?

It doesn't support mp3 uploading, only mp3 urls can be entered. The reason for this is due to various server configurations, which in many cases would fail on uploading mp3's via PHP.

OK. Add them to the list.
Can that person fill your webspace? No. Cannot upload the files.

Cheers

It would be hard to re-create a new button from just a jpg. This is why you have the PSD, you should be able to edit the button in Photoshop by isolating the layers (done by turning them off), and then you can normally drag the button and associated text into a new PSD.

One thing to note with PSD's, is you should have the correct font installed, or the text will change to some other font.

Sooo its now the 9th.. Is there going to be an update?

[rootnik]

I haven't installed this yet, waiting on the new version. I just wanted to comment on the support the author of this mod has provided. You are doing a great job, even helping people with things that have nothing to do with this hack when you could just as easily sent them looking elsewhere for answers. You easily get my nomination for HOTM.

Great mod - thanks, installed.

I want to change the names of the playlists to something more meaningful (ie different genres).

How do I do this?

Thanks,
Drammy
