[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!

See main modifcation for details.

Update ASAP, due to security hole found in previous versions.

Hello. I made a lot of changes to the appearance of the mp3 player on my site. I changed the names of the playlists, their layout on the page, colors, margins, and also disabled the annoying "click to activate" from to the Flash. I am guessing that updating to the latest version will cause me to lose all those changes I have made? Can you confirm this? Thanks.

[syrus.xl]

You could just overwrite the mp3player_admin.php - this file contains most of the fixes and the security hole which was found.

The 'Click to Activate' problem was fixed in a previous Product XML update.

Then you will not lose any customization to the modification.

Yes, this is the only file which was affected. It fixes 3 problems, 2 bugs and a security hole.

Is it possible to install this as a new page rather than a pop up ?
If so what code do I need make it work please ?

I have just read through all 45 pages and couldnt see anything...
Apologies If I missed any posts explaining how to do this..

[syrus.xl]

Yes, it can be set to appear on a separate vBulletin page. But it would require either additional coding using vBulletins custom template misc.php or adding a new PHP page with custom templating.

Really, it depends on how you wish to use it. If you want to use usergroup permissions correctly then it would require an additional PHP page, and a new custom template added. However, this would probably require additional coding in the admin section.

But, on saying that you could probably get around this by just using a standard vBulletin custom page, and using the current usergroup settings of the Mp3 Management System, since it would stop guests from viewing tracks.

If you want to know the code, then I'll write an addon tutorial for displaying this within vBulletin.
