New Posting Features - Tigur MP3/Media Player Post Integration - Integrate MP3/FLV Player into Post

Description
This mod integrates the JW MediaPlayer into a users post. I initially made it because I wanted someone to make something that my users can start playing their mp3s into the post automatically (Music forum where people post their own mixed/made legal music).

Install

Step 1. Download the free JW MediaPlayer From http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?item=JW_Media_Player (Licence fee if for profit - NOTE this is NOT my player I did not make it, I was recommended it by someone else!).

Step 2. Unzip and upload content to root (http://www.mywebsite.com/) then rename main folder to "mediaplayer"

Step 3. Install Product from Product Manager

Step 4. Uploaded attached image to image to /forums/images/editor/



Troubleshooting:

• It just loads a blank loading SWF screen goto Custom BB Codes and just click save without changing anything. If still does not work you can find
  PHP Code:

  /mediaplayer/mediaplayer.swf 

  and add your domain infront of it Ex http://www.mysite.com/mediaplayer/mediaplayer.swf. If this does not work then no idea it may be the upload itself - try it again if not post here so we can figure it out
• It shows the default vBulletin Image. Goto Custom BB Codes Find
  PHP Code:

  /images/misc/vbulletin3_logo_white.gif 

  and replace that with your direct link to your sites logo.

Note
This is my FIRST ever vB "Hack" it isn't really anything other than it auto installs it for you... If I can I'll work on an auto convert option...
I'd also like to thank all the vB Hackers here as I was learning how to do this by reading all your .xml sources!

Demo of what it looks like: http://www.vibeunderground.com/forum...10-2007-a.html

Please note you should read NeutralizeR's article on vB.org about by passing the click to activate for flash. To do so read it here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...ht=click+flash

How can I have the MP3 stopped as soon as it loads so people have the option to play it themselves?

Not sure what you mean.

Here's an example of the player on my board. The mp3 is embedded in a player that must be started and stopped by the users.

This should work in 3.7 btw. Someone else created something similar to it. However the difference is this one you can stream podcasts (and even video podcasts!) automatically without having to manually add/update. (I hope someone with more time can take over this project full time to make it with the features i'd love to add, such as autoplay youtube rss feeds, upload/play your own music on your own server.)

Davekeats: Could you edit your post and wrapt the [ code ] tags around so it doesn't break the page?

Does anyone have an example of streaming podcasts?

Thanks! Install. Work like horse)))

After upgrading vBulletin recently, this mod no longer works due to the URL bbcode being automatically being parsed within the MP3 bbcode tags. Anyone have an idea of how to fix this?
