[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!

You mean it has the HTML_DLOADER.GUR as said below:

I think this hack needs to be pulled because you add 1+1 you will get 2 so this script needs flagged immediately and if you read carefully there and see the .cn sites it's referring too after running a scan here on a local computer with Trend you will get the following results:

Virus Scan Results 2/1/2007 EPC2

As you see it was caught by TrendMicro and NOD32 Server A/V...

So why the iframe in the admin file as asked going to the China website which now the file inde1.htm doesn't exist any longer...

Oh well just a heads-up for the rest

The Xeon Mp3 Player settings on our site is set to public viewing (for demonstration purposes), therefore it will show up from a direct url call.

This modification does not allow that feature for numerous reasons:

1. Bandwidth resources would be high
2. Uploading through PHP is normally restricted by most hosts to 2Mb (many Mp3's are over this size), therefore you would need to override this value using a php.ini file. However, not all hosts allow php.ini override.
3. Possible mis-use of the modification for illegal or copyrighted material uploading.

You can link to your own sites mp3's, but the admin would be required to upload. Basically, it gives you more control on what is uploaded, and you also have to consider the server cpu usage.

Mine is not and I had to add some things to the mp3popup template to adjust user permissions. If you follow the link in the navbar, it is fine. If you direct link it, it is not.

I have mine so that only a specific usergroup could see it. All I can say for others, is try it on your own site and decide for for yourself.

Any response to the iframe in the php file?

Hey CODER what is up with the IFRAMES in the ADMIN file and how come Trendmicro finds they are pretty lame links?

Edited:

Seems he took out the iframes...

If you have the mod marked installed, you would have received an email explaining this issue. It is also posted on this post:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....54&postcount=2

The extra lines were added by a Trojan on my system at the time, and not picked up by my AV - hence why it has been changed.

I've just tested the direct url and turned off 'Unregistered/Not Signed in' to access the player and received the default vBulletin log in box. I've now changed it back to public view. So I can't understand why you are receiving access to the player if the permissions per usergroup are set correctly.

The php file in question has been updated, and should be updated as stated in the 2nd post of this modification.

installed. Had to apply the fix to the xml file but after reinstalling it wirks a treat! Great hack! Just need some damn hosted mp3's now!

[Neal-UK]

Anyone know where I can point users to to upload their music then they can link to it? Any good, free sites?

[LisaD1]

I am getting errors both when you click the link in the navbar AND when trying to add new MP3s. Any ideas? My members are really looking forward to this!!
