Mp3 Player with XML Playlist

thanks

Riggght this is awesome but i want to add <songid>11232</songid> and when a button is clicked when that song is playing goes to a url/songid. Any idea how i can do this?

You could set up the xml file so it is dynamically processed by php. Instead of <songid>11232</songid>, have php replace the id 11232 with the actual mp3 url that the id links to.

Hi john ive set that up already the php driven xml. But basically i have a php page at www.site.com/song/songid... and i want to link (via button) to that dynamic page for the current playing song.

hey there. ok i love the mp3 player and it works great in a site that only has one playlist, but i am having trouble modifying the code for my website which has many different playlists. could you tell me where to change the code on the mp3 player if the name of the playlist is "acoustic_playlist" for example? then i think i can figure out the rest. great job :) sincerely, Jane Andre' jane@janesmusic.com

one other question i have is : how do i modify the code so that the music does not start automatically on load, but only when the use pushes the play button? thanks again, Jane Andre' jane@janesmusic.com

Jane, in the html, change both places where it says autostart=true to autostart=false

Anyone got a solution to my problem ... I want to link to the currently playing tracks informtion page... i already have <trackid>TRACKID</trackid> in the XML file, i just need to be able to insert a button which links to www.mysite.com/track/CURRENTLYPLAYINGTRACKID Any ideas. Would be greatly appreciated.

Where will we write this xhtml code? to swf?

do you think to give some lessons about making spectrum analysis for music?

huseyin, I believe you need to use AS3.0 to analyze the spectrum. Check out revolt: http://www.anttikupila.com/flash/revolt-actionscript-3-based-spectrum-analyzer-source-released/

Hey John, all I got to say is THANKS!!! I'm building a flash page for a friend that has a band and by adding this mp3 player to the page adds so much to it, it's amazing for bands. Thank you sooo much! If there's any paypal donation needed let me know... aragoneldragon@hotmail.com

I like mac much better and ipods i would prefer the ipod slider instead of that stupid playlist!

How can i edit the player so it will accept this... <channel> <title>Podcasts</title> <description></description> <item> <title>traxexample8_oriental.mp3</title> <description></description> <itunes:author></itunes:author> <pubDate>Wed, 18 Jul 2007 11:58:44 +0100</pubDate> <enclosure url="http://www.hatfield.doncaster.sch.uk/user/59/54100.mp3" length="265968" type="audio/mpeg" /> <guid>http://www.hatfield.doncaster.sch.uk/user/59/54100.mp3</guid> </item> Cheers :)

this player is awsome, but anyone can fix the slider problem during streaming... it jumping left and right when the music still streaming

can i hide the playlist and call it we the user wants

undefined error

can't get it to work what am I doing wrong...built my own and that works....what do I need to implement to stop this error

Error opening URL "file:///G|/SwingSetGroup%5Finc/42%2Dmp3player/undefined",,,have all the files on local computer...do I need them on remote host....to test it?

Robert, check your html and make sure you are pointing to the correct xml file.

Awesome... Thanks for the this, I don't know where you find the time to do it all

Similar to Janes' post i'm trying to have the player only play the mp3 'on demand'. In other words when the user clicks the play button or song title only. I've set the auto start to: autostart=false and this prevents the player on initial load to not play.. however, after that, once you select a song the following songs auto-play. where can i stop that? Is this possible? BTW: This is an awesome mp3 Player!!! Thanks so much.

Hi im trying to load this into a swf ive made myself using the loadmovie command but it wont play the mp3's, it does read the playlist and the animations all work but no music. :( can you help?

Dont worry I fixed it, not sure what I did to fix it but it works like a dream now. BTW great player keep up the good work

I'm building a site for my band and I wanted to use this player. However, the site I'm building is a Flash site. I've never worked with .xml. How do I get it to work if I'm not directly embeding the player though html? any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

I have the player working in a folder on my local machine, but when I post the same folder to my website, the player and all the information displays, but the mp3s don't play. Detail: In one failed instance the timer displays 00:00, in another, NaN:NaN.

Hey John Where in the actionscript i can change the code, that the loading progress is lower that i can play when it's already load's 2% of the music ? because if i put it on my website everey thing is going to a tild when it's loads the music. kind of regards, Djashuard

There are already a couple of posts on this subject but no solution yet.I also have different playlists on my site and I'm solving this now by putting different players on my site (one player.swf for each artist). There must be a way to load all the playlists(xml files or file) in the same player but how is this done? Anyone have an idea?

Thank you very much. This is exactly what i needed. Great player!

is there a way to read ID3 tags? I like you player

How do I change the font size and color of the playlistbox? Please help. Thanks, Louis

Player updated. It now uses the XSPF standard.

Hi... i'm quite new in "actionscripting" and would like to know if you can set the default volume in... let's say 50%, how can we do that?... by the way the mp3 flash is very good :)

Esta mierda no anda!!!

Hi! I would like to add this swf file insite my fla movie, I want to insert it in another movieclip so it lays as a swf file insite a Movie Clip (musicplayer_mc) Please help!

Hi - Great Player! I was wondering if anyone might tell me how to go about adding a stop button? Many thanks!

Francis--What's wrong with just having a pause button?

There's nothing wrong with only having a pause button, and I like the play/pause toggle, feature but I'd just like to have a stop button as well. I've added the button in flash I just don't know what to add to the actionscript.

Hi, Does anybody know how tho change font style of the playlistbox? I think John already asked this question but can not see an answer to it. How do does this lines of code look like and where do you put them? My tries didn't work. Coba

coba, to change the fonts, open the .fla in flash, click each text box, and change their fonts in the properties tab.

Hi, i have many question to u. My site is a free download music, i want this player swf have a download song and using code embed music to other site. Please help me, I have using playlist swf JW, i want using this script. Thanks so much

Is there a way to configure the XML or the XHTML to do or not loop the playlist??

Hi John, Great player, very responsive! Can you point me to any tutorials on how to display the album cover photo in a nested movie clip, that is triggered by the XML playlist?

Thanks, I've managed to get it working fine, it's great

Nice topic Thanks I have found two interesting sources http://fileshunt.com and http://filesfinds.com and would like to give the benefit of my experience to you.

How would you add a function that changed the playlist? I noticed that in the playlist.XML file it starts with <playlist version="1">, How would you make the play jump two <playlist version="2"> or load playlist2.XML?

Hi Excellent player, I love it! Just wondering if anybody here knows what part of the actionscript must be edited to get the playlist to display when embedding the player into a new flash file. I have just copied the frames over into a new movie clip in a new fla file, and everything works just fine except the playlist window which displays nothing. I can't find what to edit in the script, and hope one of you might have the solution for me. I have found several good players with that works, but not as good as this one. Excellent work!

good work, ty..

we are using your mp3 player,is there possiblity of displaying my thumbnail images for each song?

ok i have my playlist file but whenever i try to play a song on my pc i get this: Error opening URL " http://www.filefreak.com/pfiles/64927/electrikmp3/03%20Oh%20Foolish%20Heros.mp3 the mp3 at the url is valid though and when i have the swf online iit just does nothing and the box for song name says undefined-undefined the xml is here:http://electrikdesigns.50webs.com/42-playlist.xml and the swf is here:http://i169.photobucket.com/albums/u203/uluvjosh/mp3.swf please help :(

shua, looks like your xml file is malformed. Try adding <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> to the beginning.

ok i added the line but im still having the same problem. music refuses to play. i still get the same errors as my previous post states.. any more ideas. e-mail me at: musicboxdesigns@yahoo.com

how do you update the xml so it sources the mp3 files from a folder (called mp3) rather than a web address?
