XSPF MP3 Player question was created by scorgie
I have installed the MP3 player beta from forge.joomla that Jeffrey Hill created.

FANTASTIC WORK!!! - really cool stuff.

I'd like to help add features to it. What I'd like to do right away is to allow for the editing of the file details once a track has been added. Currently you can only add or delete tracks. If you are like me you will screw up the path sveral times and need to be able to edit somehow. What files am I looking for? mp3tab.php /upload.php or ?

Then maybe take on the upload.

I'm running CB on IIS.

Hi scorgie,

To add the ability to edit info about an existing mp3, it could either be done by adding form fields inline with the table created in uploader.php, or by adding a new subroutine that can be called from uploader.php for editing previously added entries (using Javascript and more HTML output, probably). As it currently stands, mp3tab.php would need to catch an edit action at the beginning of the getDisplaytab() function, which would update the database then rebuild the user's XSPF file.

If you end up creating code that works for what you're looking to achieve (before I do, which is simple, because I code like a sloth), just let me know and I'll add permissions on the forge for you to commit code to the project.

I'm still on the fence about how to approach uploading, but from threads I've picked up on, I'm leaning towards just throwing in an optional HTTP uploader I had originally included for those who have the server space and bandwidth to burn.

Hi,

Is there anything new about the MP3 Player for the community builder.

I d love to try the beta version.

Here is an important point: A lot of users don't have the right to upload copyrighted music. Therefore I would give the users the possibility to add music to their profile of other users who have published their own music. Just like Myspace does it.

Will that be included in the next version ?
