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...

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.

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?

Thank you so much for this wonderful player. I copied all the xml code, and for some reason, the playlist wouldn't show up in the playlistbox. I don't know what I did wrong and I would really appreciate any input you could give.

Thank you.

xml code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <playlist version="1" xmlns="http://xspf.org/ns/0/">
- <trackList>
- <track>
<creator>Jim Carroll Band</creator>
<title>People Who Died</title>
<location>http://www.bezzmedia.com/swfspot/resources/42-song1.mp 3</location>
</track>
</trackList>
</playlist>

Di, it looks like your browser reformatted the xml file to make it more friendly to read. There should not be '-' between tags. When you open the file, try viewing the source, or instead just right click the link and save the file directly.

John, thank you so much for your response. I cleaned up all the xml codes, but the playlist details still won't show in the playlistbox.......I am embedding this player into my flash website fla file, and this is the best player I have found so far, so if you have any input, I would greatly appreciate.

p.s.: I think I have similar problem w/ Paul (posted on May 27th).

i believe my problem is the same as di's and paul's

ok so ive gotten my songs to show up in the playlist but they will not play http://electrikdesigns.50webs.com/mp3.swf

shua, file freak may be blocking direct downloads.

does anyone know - how to add a shuffle button to this player? so that it will play the tracks in random order. your help will be greatly appreciated!

How to make own xml tag like dat???

I cant input ma playlist to ya flash!

http://www.fileden.com/files/2008/7/28/2023973/My%20Documents/187%20Ride%20or%20Die%20soundtrack.xml

This player looks very nice and it's functioning well! However it would be even better when there would be a shuffle function. Is there somebody who knows how to put in this player? Thanks for the good work!

Hi,
Anybody knows Is there any possibility of changing view of the player (buttons shape size, colours) ?

How Do I Change the font style and color in the "playlistbox" text area. I want the font color to be white so I can see it against my black background. Someone please HEEEEELLLLLLPPPPP!! Haha. I really need it. Thanks.----Marv

I think i discovered the problem to most peoples issues here..... In the sample code above for the xhtml, John has musicplayer.swf etc.... whereas, in the download codes, you use mp3player.swf etc.... People, make sure your syntax is all the same. Cheers. Matt

Hi Folks,
I can get the player to work wonderfully in firefox, but IE just shows a blank white box, sized the same as the right size, but blank inside? Is there something i need to add or removove in the code to make it work in IE.
Thanx in advance!
Maceman

I had to change the .swf text in the <object data section to "musicplayer.swf" to get it to work.

I too would like the change the color of the player. Anybody with some ideas?

sample site:
http://www.justmymusic.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_music_info&cPath=1&products_id=1

How would one add the ability to use the arrow keys for huge play lists? Say list of 1,900+? I have 7 very large play lists and when I use the up and down arrow buttons it skips over about 10 to 20 songs at a time. When I click and drag the scroll bar I again can't seem to get it to rest on the section I want to view due to the fact that it jumps every 10 to 20. Is there something I can do withing Flash to get the use of the keyboard arrow keys? Thanks!
Example site: http://www.justmymusic.com/music_clips/player/elmo_player_full.html

I just noticed a problem... Cna someone help with this... Notice that when you reload the page, for a split second the player says Iron Maiden- The Trooper or something like that??? How do we get rid of that? It is not in the code....

You can open the file in Flash and edit the Iron Maiden - The Trooper text with whatever you like. Than save the file and done. See example of the changed text here: http://www.JustMyMusic.com (Just click on any product to see the player)

What I want to know... is how do you slow down the scroll bar. I want to click the up or down arrow and have it just move one item at a time, not 10+.

Thanks!

First of all, I would like to say that this is an awesome music player.


I wanted to make this player bigger in dimension, so I tried to enlarge it, but after enlarging, I realized the position of the playslider and the playlist scroller went out of place. I know that the dragging is enabled and their position is programmed to a fixed position.


So I was wondering if there is anyway to enlarge the dimension of the player without disrupting the position of the slider and the scroller.


Thanks. :)

this player is awesome! thanks in a million

THANK YOU

How can I resize the playlist area? I would like the player to be a little slimmer, more rectangular (something like 300x125). But when I try to resize the playlist box it also resizes the text within it. Also, when I try to resize the scroll bar the playlistscroller still scrolls all the way down to its original point. I'm sure I need to change something within the actionscript I'm just not sure what.
I'm also unsure how to change the text properties for the playlistbox since it is a movieclip and not a textbox.
I appreciate help from anyone who can assist me with the issues above.

thank u for developing my skills.....lot of thanks to u

John,
Thank You very much, wish you all the best

Theis mp3 Player is awesome. I want the playlistbox to display 5 songs instead of 10. I tried to reduce the height of the playlistbox, but it still displays 10 songs. I hope someone can help me to solve this. Thank you.

Awesome player. Thanks a ton for sharing the files.
Keep it up!!

How do I stop it from playing on load. I am loading it from a Flash page so there isnt a code like the one above. The only 'autostart' on the code is already set to 'False'

Please Help!

Otherwise great player glad I found it

Thanks

Joel, there are two lines to set autostart in, I think one of them is even in the playlist path...

You probably missed one

Great Help

love vivian

Thats all great and beautiful, all works, but i cannot edit the fla file in flash, it says "UNEXPECTED FILE FORMAT" Why?????

Thanks for help.

Rossanna, you must have at least flash 8.

Love this flash player, it looks great and works with IE8 too (unlike the previous one I was using). Thanks for sharing, John!

I just want to get rid of the "Iron Maiden" track that appears for a split second when the player loads. Nothing against the Maiden as such, it's just not in keeping with the music I'm playing!

I understand you can open the file in Flash and edit it out, but where? I'm not really a Flash expert. Plus I only have Flash 7 - does that mean I can never edit it out?

Code Red, do you have a link so I can see what is going on?

Hey, is there a way to keep the prgressslider in line with the song as it plays while the song is loading instead of jumping back?

Thanks man.

great songs! ^^

Hey I like your player but HOW TO DO IF I WANT TO PUT THE PLAYLIST IN OTHER LANGUAGE LIKE THAI, CHINESE JAPANES ?

I can't get anything to work...i can call information from your site, but it won't use the XML file I made...Can someone please help? email is invicus12@gmail.com

You have to make sure that the "42-playlist.xml" file is renamed to "playlist.xml" before uploading the file to your server. If you look in the AS3 file you will see that the "_root.playlist" is pointing to "playlist.xml" and not "42-playlist.xml".

Hi John-

Excellent work here. The player is really great and I have enjoyed using it. I was wondering if it is possible to modify the script to allow me to duplicate the frames into adjacent frames and use a button to toggle to another instance of the script/frames. The effect would be that a user would click a button and go from one playlist to another. I'm certain either a modification is needed or it just won't work. I tried what I'm describing and it plays the same playlist, even though I have defined a new one in the new frames/script.

Any tips I would be grateful for!

Thanks

Below is an example of what my site requires for me to play music..Could someone complete one track so I can have an example on where to put the music i want to play on site.



<?xml version="1.0"?>
<songs>
<song url= "tracks/song1.mp3" artist="Artist 1" track="Track 1"/>
<song url= "tracks/song2.mp3" artist="Artist 2" track="Track 2"/>
<song url= "tracks/song3.mp3" artist="Artist 3" track="Track 3"/>
<song url= "tracks/song4.mp3" artist="Artist 4" track="Track 4"/>
</songs>

Diva...you need to have a folder in the root of your web server called "tracks" and put your songs in it. Then in the xml file change the file names to reflect the names of the songs on your server. The swf would reside in the root directory too, according to the path in the xml example you have here.

After poking around a bit I finally figured out how to point to different playlists in the timeline. First off, make sure you change the frame designation in the loader script. Then in the main script, change _root.playlist to _root.playlist1 and so on. That's the key to getting multple playlists in one player. Then make buttons that point to each unique loading cell. Probably a dirty hack but it seems to work.

thank you.

Maaan :)! You Rock!!!!!!

Wow!... nice player!!!
lol
thanks a lot!!! =) You Rock !!!!!

Very nice. :=)

Thanks

it is nice but not supporting arabic can anyone help me?

Hi guys
this player is very good but How i remove autoplay function.

You have not been very bad, convenient player.Thenk you!

r&#7845;t tuy&#7879;t v&#7901;i b&#7841;n ah !!! C&#7843;m &#417;n nhi&#7873;u nha ...

DEMO : http://sieudoc.com

hey when i download your 3 files put them all in the same directory and create html file with :
<object data="42-mp3player.swf?autostart=true&amp;playlist=42-playlist.xml"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="300" height="200" >
<param name="movie" value="42-mp3player.swf?autostart=true&amp;playlist=42-playlist.xml" />
</object>

( which is the same as your website. it wont play the songs and gives me a time of NaNaNa)
all files are in the same folder and all names are as downloaded.
42-playlist.xml
42-mp3player.swf
42-mp3player.fla

whats going on >???

Thank u !!! Great Job !!! The best that a i found in web !!! Congratulations !!!

Great player and just what I needed for my Flash-based site.
To those who are wondering how to prevent playback on load, just go to line 17 in the Actions editor and you will probably see this:
if (_root.autostart == "false")

Notice there are two = signs?
Delete one and it's fixed.

Great player, used it successfully a few times.

Only one issue: How can I prevent the playlist from repeating (looping) when reaching the last song?

Hi,

This is an amazing player - I've used it on a number of sites, thanks for sharing it!

I've managed to modify the AS exactly how I want it but am having an issue with the playlist scroll function - after changing the height of the playlist box, some of the mp3s are below the masked playlistbox when the scroller is at the bottom.

I've narrowed it down to this -
does anyone know what the number 149 on line 207 does? I've been trying for a few hours and can't figure it out. Any help would be massively appreciated.

Ant

True to form, solved it as soon as I asked.

once again, great player :)

Awesome! help you with a couple questions I seen above here ...
Transparency param name="wmode" value="transparent" /
and the plugin code at the end... embed src="" quality="high" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" wmode="transparent"/ This makes it trans parent...
Buttons and colors? FLASH Duplicate image then replace image with the dup. Colors same way! And now My Problem...The XML List can you add a function to add a buy now URL in it? BTW John YOU ROCK! I also am creating www.phillymusicstore.com and looking for a cart player or I'm just going to do the scroll list thumbnail - info - sample button (rather have a player) and the buy track now paypal button. any ideas?

Great MP3 player! Thank you. One small question: How can I modify the AS to assign a specific font style to the "playlistbox" mc (not "songdisplay" and "songtime" textboxes)?

Is the code of playlistitem hidding in the "playlistitemcontainer" movie clip? I believe people will be really appreciated if you can share the code for adjusting the font style/font size of the playlistbox.

Sorry. Found the playlistitem code in the library :) YEAH!

I need the button to be white and background to be black. How can I do it?

Love the player and works fine with some minor issues.

1) The scrubber : Acting buggy. (Seems to move as the mp3 is buffered, fine once the entire mp3 has been downloaded so to speak).

2) Track Info Box : The text stays still on track1, track2; scrolls left then stops then scrolls right. I think 2 is bugged or something in how it moves.. can we get a fix to keep it still like track1 instead of scrolling?

Great player but im unable to use it till this minor things are fixed, just hoping someone can help.

seems its random as to which tracks stay still and which ones do the wiggle thing.

And Last suggestion to improve this player.

The scrolling playlist.. how can I edit it so that if you dont have enough tracks to fill the playlist up it wont scroll the playlist still.

A good start, just need to make a few improvements!

Thanks for this, great idea and I'm sure with some little improvements this could be awesome!

Hi, This is a great player!! Thank you very much!

However I am having issues with IE, the player is showing as a white box. It works fine in every other browser?

I thank you in advance for any help you may be able to offer me :-)

Helen

i had problems until in realize the file was saved as 42-playlist erase the 42- and it should work. :)

Hi Just wondering if there was a quick work around for adding multiple playlist tabs say if you wanted to multiple albums to select from? How would i go about this? Any help would be great!

Guys as you see this mp3 player can only be user with actionscript 2
higher or lowler actionscript will not work

if you some tutorials i would me honored to help you guys out

Man, this is the only mp3 player that works when I publish my html page. Congratulations and thanks a lot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

great work ...thanks man
really clean and effective

great

Thats Fab but the sample work of MP3 player you created above does not play anything, its only showing that we can select the song and move the scroll up and down to see the play list but why it is not playing? By the way excellent work.

Great blog.It is really informative article. Thank you for sharing your experience and teaching us.

Great Player. I want to have polish characters in song names but player don't read them form playlist.xml, just skips them. Anyone got a clue how to fix that?

Hi , this is a great player !!! Somebody knows how to add a picture in the xml that load in a movieclip ??? And is it possible to add a shuffle function to the playlist ? Thanks for answers...

Hello,

Thanks for this great MP3 player.
I have one question: how do I stop looping the XML playlist ? When the last song is played it starts all over again. I want to stop it from restarting.

How do i do this ?

Yhanks!

Fred
Belgium

I just need to change the data in the xml file according to different sessions.

so i made a simple solution like this, but its not working, please check.

<?php
header("Content-type:text/xml; charset=utf-8");
session_start();
echo "<playlist version="1" xmlns=\"http://xspf.org/ns/0/\"><trackList>";
echo " <track><creator>$_SESSION[artist]</creator><title>$_SESSION[title1]</title><location>http://www.aweintv.info//datasecure/mp3/1.mp3</location></track>";
echo "</trackList></playlist>";
exit;
?>

when i tried to put all xml inside php and tell browser that the header is xml, it only works with internet explorer and not with any other browser, what to do for this.

How do i modify the code so that the music does not start automatically on load, but only when a user pushes the play button?

Hi Just wondering if there was a quick work around for adding multiple playlist tabs say if you wanted to multiple albums to select from? How would i go about this? Any help would be great!
Thanks a lot!

Thank you for good information

How can i embed this player to another site? It works great on the same site as I have it uploaded but not when I try to embed it in another site. I have a crossdomain.xml on my site. The strange thing is that the player loads the playlist but it want start to play. I have autostart=true. What can I do?

I forgott to ask one thing. I have Flash CS4 and when I made any change in the file and publish it, it will not work. I got questions if I like to convert it to cs4 file. I have tried everything. Can you please help me out?

This is cool code. I had never heard of embedding an MP3 player using XML. This is a very helpful post.

Wonderful, thanks.

thank you for this interesting info. i was looking for something like this.

I have made a simple site for streaming my music..

STEP 1, go to music list in php, click to find ablum wanted

STEP 2, click play, creates xml playlist, loads mp3player.swf plays song(s)

great

but if i go back (browser back) to first page, find new album, php updates xml (checked this) but the mp3 player still plays first playlist. if i close browser (IE8) then go back to begining, all is fine.

how do i solve this? where is cache stored? and simple solutions?

The MP3 player, which is a compression format that shrinks digital audio files with negligible sound-quality degradation, has revolutionized the way people can listen to music (MP3 Developments).

Really great MP3 thanks for share this.

@Gary
use rand function in php for link

data="42-mp3player.swf?autostart=true&playlist=42-playlist.php&rand=<? echo rand();?>"

same for

param name="movie" value="42-mp3player.swf?autostart=true&playlist=42-playlist.php&rand=<? echo rand();?>"

This player is great, I've just downloaded it!

All the mp3's are in the same place not in separate folder on my server site typed in the exact URL Link
put the title of the song nothing no song shows up
just says undefined-undefined . So what the hell i am doing wrong why can't the xml file locate the Mp3 in the same place with a direct url link . Please can someone explain in Lay mans terms i am a total newbee and need to be explained to like a child .

for everyone who has the issue of the mp3 file code having a bunch of %20 signs written into the mp3 file location!!! Replace %20 with a Space! thats all you have to do! Such as Http://www.somesite.com/some%20Cool%20Song.mp3 change it to Http://www.somesite.com/some Cool Song.mp3

I hope this helps many of you!

Thank you very much!
