Flash player - the JW jeroen wijering player instead of xspf

[poy77]

thank you fore your quick answer !
no the problem is not with the tag. all songs are correctly tagged and I never have any artist name in the player. Strange for me that the first line has the right name of the song but norhing in the second liune (right to the cover in the playlist).
I don't know where the problem is..

Hm. Strange.
You could try to download the playlist.. Dowload kPlaylist and upload only the mediaplayer folder. You should take a backup of the one you already have..
Download: .zip (windows) or .tar.gz

If not. Then i dont know. Maybe you could try to replace everything..

Hi all,

The lastest version of the JW player is 4.4.198. There are many improvements, including the playback of 48000 Hz sampled mp3 files, which I have been waiting for.

The replacement of the older version (3.16) of JW player is troublefree (just replacing files). Only, the player doesn't diplay the playlist. It will only show a big-sized cover but no playlist.

Could someone here explain which code to change, in order to have the same presentation of the older player?

Thanks

OK, I reply to myself as I solved my problem:

First you need to replace the file mediaplayer.swf in the folder "jw" with the lastest version of jwplayer (4.x) and insert a skin file, like "simple.swf" in the same folder. This file can be found here :

http://developer.longtailvideo.com/trac/browser/skins/

Then, you will need to change a bit of the index.php file by this:

Code: Select all

<script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo $cfg['jw_urls']['js']; ?>"></script>
      <p id="player1"><a href="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer">Get the Flash Player</a> to see this player.</p>
      <script type="text/javascript">
      var s1 = new SWFObject('<?php echo $link; ?>','mpl',<?php echo $width; ?>,<?php echo $height; ?>,'8');
        s1.addParam('allowscriptaccess','always');
        s1.addParam('allowfullscreen','true');
        s1.addVariable('height',<?php echo $height; ?>);
        s1.addVariable('playlist','bottom');
        s1.addVariable('playlistsize','420');
        s1.addVariable('width',<?php echo $width; ?>);
        s1.addVariable('autostart','true');
        s1.addVariable('repeat','list');
        s1.addVariable('shuffle','false');
        s1.addVariable('abouttext','Return to playlist');
        s1.addVariable('aboutlink','http://yoururl/mp3/');
        s1.addVariable("backcolor","0x9e9e9e");
        s1.addVariable("frontcolor","0x333333");
        s1.addVariable("lightcolor","0x555555");

and this tiny code :

Code: Select all

$link = $cfg['jw_urls']['swf'].'?file='.urlencode($playlist).'&skin=jw/simple.swf';

Finally, change the size of the external player by this (this code can be found in the index.php or kpplaylist.php):

Code: Select all

// size of window for "external" player
$cfg['jw_window_x'] = 385;
$cfg['jw_window_y'] = 725;

... have fun with the latest jwplayer, which can read more audio files.

hi,

it is a many time ago from the last post .

I´ve used Kplaylist bundle stable version 1.8 with some changes by Quicksilver (1-side this discussion), everything is fine except 2 small problems .

1,
If I use any morrow skins so the timer or its read-ahead indicator (?? I don´t know exactly ) goes to infinity (see pict. http://img194.imageshack.us/img194/4591/pictguy.jpg ). And I can´t find where is a problem.

2,
I could play music files except WMA when the player is stopped and I have to manually run another (not .WMA) music file.

Can me somebody help ?

Thx and pls don´t kill me for my english
