The XEON Mp3 Player for vBulletin 3.6.X


MAJOR UPDATE RELEASED - Package updated to v4.0.0

XEON Z4 Preview (expect release Janauary 2008
New preview available of the Xeon Z4 now available here

Design: Syrus XL Media 2003-2007
Coding Updated: Black-dice.com

Demo: Digital Port UK - Digital Port (Click Entertainment>XEON Mp3 Player)

Support only given to members that have clicked install.

Version: 3.6.0 coding (Major UPDATE) *see below
Version: 3.5.1 coding (Product XML file updated)
Version: 3.0 XEON Player (Shuffle disabled) *Player Only Package* added.

Fully compatible and tested on vBulletin 3.6.0 and above.

No example tracks are included in this version.

*IMPORTANT: About version 3.6!!*
If you have installed this modification prior to the latest version 3.6, it is recommended that you update to the latest version 3.6 immediately. Older versions contain a Security Hole in the admin section. All database errors have been fixed, special thanks to Code Monkey.


Click to 'Nominate for Mod of the Month'

Features:

* Can hold upto 500 mp3 tracks (5 playlists with 100 tracks in each)
* Automatically cuts off access to playlists if 100 tracks are reached
* All track data held in database
* Volume & Pan(balance) Controls
* Add mp3's through AdminCP or via Popup
* PM system notifcation of new tracks submitted
* Edit/Delete/Approve/Deny tracks via AdminCP
* Usergroup Permissions for adding tracks and viewing of player
* Multi-functional display on mp3 player
* WOL Enabled - see who's using the mp3 player
* Stream and Buffer parameters per track
* Track pre-loading on display

This version is not compatible with the XML driven vbMp3 Player I released awhile ago (you may uninstall or leave in, as this version uses renamed files). The player, and all code as been changed, and now fully utilizes the vBulletin AdminCP for settings, mp3 playlist management, usergroup permissions.

Known Issues:
NONE

UPDATING:
Overwrite all files with the new package XEON Mp3 Player v3.6.0
Import the Product XML file using the vBulletin Product Manager. Go to Mp3 Player Management and update settings and Save.

Template edit(required on new install and upgrade, unless you have installed other products from us.).
In the headinclude template -
Find:
Code:
<script type="text/javascript" src="clientscript/vbulletin_global.js?v=$vboptions[simpleversion]"></script>
Above add:
Code:
<script type="text/javascript" src="clientscript/flashobject.js"></script>
If this line of code already exists then DO NOT ADD IT!

End of Update


MAIN INSTALLATION

Installation:
Upload the contents of the ?Upload folder? to your forum root. Import the ?product-mp3player.xml? file via ?Plugins & Products? ? Manage Products ? Import Product in your AdminCP. Press F5 or ******* your browser window to view the Mp3 Player Management menu. Once you install this version make sure you Update the MP3 Management settings and click SAVE, failure to do so will result in an error if you enable the custom PM notification system.

Template Edits:
These edits are based on the default vBulletin style, you may need to change if you have a custom style.


AdminCP -> Styles & Templates -> Navigation / Breadcrumb Templates -> navbar

Find:
Code:
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="calendar.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[calendar]</a></td>
After add:
Code:
<!?Mp3 Player Launch -->
<if condition="$show['member']">
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="javascript:NewWindow=window.open('mp3playerindex.php?do=viewmp3playerpopup','newWin','width=500,height=500,left=0,top=0, toolbar=No,location=No,scrollbars=1,status=No,resizable=No,fullscreen=No');
NewWindow.focus(); void(0);">vbMp3 Player</a></td>
</if>
<!?End Mp3 Player Launch -->
Now, navigate to AdminCP -> Usergroups -> Usergroup Manager ? adjust usergroups permissions as required. Default is all usergroups have no access.

You now have the vbMp3 XEON player installed!

Update notifications can only be sent out if you click 'INSTALL'.

vBadvanced CMPS version:
An addon will be released very soon. Due to varying installations of this portal, there will be different center block codes available.

More players will available shortly.

Enjoy!

Beautiful.

Had some issues with After Seppuku when you released this elsewhere and so never got it running.

Will be installing this from here later tonight.

Cheers Syrus !!!

You're welcome CM! Had to do a few tweaks, and update the player. I actually released it on vBulletin.org, then I came straight here to release it. Haven't had time to release it on my site yet.

Good question...

Many sites that I've been requested to review its usage, are mainly forums that are dedicated to music sharing between the members own music.

As for copyrighted content, this varies on a wide scale. Most countries do not allow copyrighted material to be held on their servers, but there are a few exceptions. Depending on how this modification is setup, to use internal or external linking - can become confusing, since you could have song titles held on a server where its perfectly legit to have or use copyrighted material, while in other cases its completely illegal.

There are so many regulations, but because they are not country specific it causes many 'loopholes'. Always best to read up on terms of using various servers.

Then again, there are many artists/bands these days that will give you permission to freely play their content.

So, it does have many uses - but how you use it is entirely upto the individual.

that's what I thought also, depending on where you're hosted... rules can be completely different... even linking to music is illegal in some countries..
Better have a good disclaimer in your script to avoid you being attacked in justice. I remembe sometimes to have read that providing the means is illegal. Like P2P progams are set as illegal though they are no more then a means and not part of the illegal activity....

I would try importing the product xml again. If that doesn't work then uninstall the xml and try again. Sounds like a table didn't get added to the database. Hopefully Syrus will come around and look into it.

I looked at the install xml and it looks like he left that bit out. I will contact him.

He is aware of the problem and will be releasing a fix in the near future. Like most of us, he is overbooked with work. That's a good thing and a bad thing all at the same time.

Sorry about that... The part of the code that inserts the tables for the settings got left out. This was a mistake on my behalf, after doing an update on the product XML file, I accidentially missed off the settings table. If you had the beta version installed, then the above product.xml file does update the player settings, but doesn't create the table.

I try and get it fixed ASAP...
