Anybody ever use this?
I'm not having much luck with it as of now...Here is a link...
Wild Willys Center
I know music isn't the best thing to have on a site, but this was requested.
If anybody can point me to a better "HOW TO" page rather then this one..
Help: XSPF Web Music Player
I'd really appreciate it. This is all up on just a dummy page as of now.

Thx.

You don't appear to be passing it a playlist - read the help page you linked off to, you'll notice a section in the code that embeds the player on the page which actually tells the player where to find it's XSPF playlist file.

Still no luck?? I adjusted the actionscript, but I don't think that did anything as well! Stuck.

Hi,

I have sucessfully implimented the flash music player you are showing on your website, I also have some problems at first. You can see a working version on the following website I created for my client: stephanie-benson.co.uk

1. I opened the .as script and pointed the .xspf playlist to the correct url
2. I then opened the .fla file and re-compiled the flash .swf
3. uploaded all files to server a bingo it worked

please try this at let me know if it works for you...

In what section...did you have to put any additional info in there, or is there just one place that you put the URL to the XSPF file?
Also, what do you mean, you "re-compiled the flash file"? Sorry if these are stupid questions, but I'm just trying to get it right the first time.
Thanks a ton dcpweb!

Hi,

In the .as file you will see a string pointing to .xspf playlist. Enter the full path to the xspf playlist here.

I had some issues when changing the .as file, I tried to recomplie the flash file e.g. open the flash file and then export as .swf. This seemed to fix the problem i was experiencing. You should see the following code in your .as file, this is where you need to make change to path of .xspf file:

DEFAULT_PLAYLIST_URL = "http://www.dcpweb.co.uk/flash/music player/AlbumPlaylist.xml";
DEFAULT_WELCOME_MSG = "Wecome to www.dpweb.co.uk";
LOADING_PLAYLIST_MSG = "Loading Playlist...";
DEFAULT_LOADED_PLAYLIST_MSG = "- click to start"
DEFAULT_INFOBUTTON_TXT = "BUY"


Also take a look at the post: Embedded music link

I used it before, but until Flash stops force caching everything, it's really no use to me.
