*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!

That also took care of my issue as well, thanks Allan.

They really should change that for the download.

Is there a way for people to upload their songs rather than link to another site?

This is what I'm getting when I try to launch XEON-player - does anyone have a clue...? I followed install-instructions as written in text-doc!

Database error in vBulletin 3.6.4:

Invalid SQL:

SELECT COUNT(*) AS id
FROM vbmp3playlist AS mp3playlist WHERE approvemp3=1;

MySQL Error : Unknown column 'approvemp3' in 'where clause'

Hi there:

Please forgive me if this one has been covered before. Quite honestly as I sorted through and used the search features I could not find some obvious answers to my question about windows media player capability.

Here is simply what I want to do:

In a post that I create I simply say: To hear and view this species of bird click here:

at that point windows media player is activated and my file plays for the mbr wanting to view it.

Can anyone tell me if there is a hack I can buy to do this? and how is this set up?

Thanks so much and this should be a common question so forgive me if it has been dealt with at length elsewhere. I couldnt find the informatioin if it has been.

Cheers!

Don

i'm sure you could just create an embed bb code, not sure on the specifics though, and have it so you just type in the file name you want embedded.....

Another question. Is there any way that we are going to get in trouble with copyrights on the songs? I run a free site and can't afford to be fined.

Not trying to be pushy but any opinions/answers on this?

Hey all,

Got everything hooked into the admin CP but I'm now getting a database error. I tried the revised XML code as well but no luck, I still get the below db error message.

Database error in vBulletin 3.6.4:
Invalid SQL:

SELECT COUNT(*) AS id

The below script problem looks to be fixed when more than 1 mp3 is loaded into the playlist.



ok...re-installed again and reimported the xml file, all looked to be working great until I loaded up 1 mp3 file, the mp3 played and then next popped up. Any ideas what might be causing this?

Tested using Firefox/2.0.0.1 and IE 6.0

[scart3r]

Hi I have installed it, fixed up the database error thing and it didn't work. Basically I can load mp3's but when I go to play them, the play button just flashes. I uninstalled it and did the whole process again, and the same thing is happening. I have had a look through the 34 pages of info here, but couldn't find my mistake. Please help
