Flash MP3 Audio file player module

[jcarncross]

This module essentially uses the same code as my FLV Video Module. It uses a flash player to play mp3 file from a list of links. Users can upload a thumbnail image and add a title, description, artist, and description to the entry. As with the FLV video module, I am sure that I have done many things incorrectly, please feel free to comment, correct, and test the module, so that it can be as functional as possible.
This module plays mp3 files via a flash player.

Thanks for your help and support in the development of this module

Hi

nice module.
I tested this module on my testpage.
No errors during installation, but 1 (same) error message in the front- and backend:
http://www.rvb.bplaced.net/pages/player/testaudio.php

Edit: I cannot delete the "delivered and installed" mp3 file

[Olli]

make sure your upload filesize is set correctly if you are talking about files not showing up.

that bug inside the admin area about false/empty entries will be fixed shortly. nevertheless you can use it with no worries. the empty entries are not visible on the frontend view and do not harm the functionality.

[erpe]

Thank you for information.

Thanks again

Hi

nice module.
I tested this module on my testpage.
No errors during installation, but 1 (same) error message in the front- and backend:
http://www.rvb.bplaced.net/pages/player/testaudio.php

I don't really know what causes this notice to appear
"Notice: Undefined variable: setting_footer in /users/rvb/www/modules/audioplayer/view.php on line 158"
Maybe your php error reporting is set too aggressive.
Go to websitebaker admin > settings > show advanced > and select "PHP Error Reporting Level: E_ALL or Sytemdefault or none".

[erpe]

Hi

level is at E_ALL.
Changing it to NONE cannot be the solution.
But it works though the error message appears.
Would be better, if the message disappears.

[doc]

Hello,

the PHP warning is caused by the undefined variable $setting_footer in line 158 of view.php. The variable is not declared in the view.php and not included from another file. Commenting out that line should do the trick unless I miss something.

Regards Christian

[Olli]

php notice is gone now...

[Vincent]

Very nice, thanks for sharing.

It would be nice if some things could be added:
- possibility to change (or remove) the header text ('now playing')
- possibility to change the colours of the player.

Up til now I used the MP3 Playlist (http://www.websitebaker2.org/forum/index.php/topic,5563.0.html) module (which had above described optins), but this one is much easier to use.

Regards,
Vincent

I have a problem using this module.
I've added it and uploaded songs, but nothing will show on my page.
http://www.roon.ws/pages/mp3.php  <- direct link to the page.
I can't find it out myself.

[kweitzel]

The page is not completely rendered so there is some error. Please switch on error reporting and then the error(s) should show.

cheers

[Olli]

@roon: please try to privide as much information if you can about the error and me and kimmik will fix it.

what kind of php version do you have got? please turn on php error reporting as kweitzel suggested and tell us about the error.

just noticed your page has a lot of errors and your doctype is not valid. please try to fix them to see if this helps.

use sth. like this and please note it is case sensitive

PHP:
5.2.6

This is the version that my server has.

[Olli]

uh well, i have no idea what those errors are about to be honest. as you wrote these appear only when turining on the player module?

you have got the latest wb 2.70, right? seems there is some function call not working proberly on your system or used twice, but which one? 

will look at the code again tomorrow.

thanks

My site is hosted at hostgator.

[kweitzel]

For some reason your system is calling the template twice ... do yuo have a global block or something like this?

[muecki]

Hallo,

I made a test installation with xampp on my local pc and the player run and the thumbnail was shown. Now I installed the modul online on WB 2.7, PHP 4.4.8.. The player doesn´t run and the thumbnail is not shown.

Here ist the Link to my installation:
http://www.kirche-burscheid.de/katholisch/pages/mp3-player-testseite.php

I look for error messages, but I dont get one.

I found the error message. It is the same message as in the post from smitty above

Notice: Undefined index: mp3_file in /kunden/kirche-burscheid.de/webseiten/katholisch/modules/audioplayer/modify.php on line 121

Who can help?

Helmut

[gioweb]

thanks! very useful!!!
It would be useful to be able to sort the songs, once loaded.

[masarin]

Hi, and thank you for the module.

I can modify the playlist through the front end css, but where can I modify the actual player? For example width and align.

Regards masarin
