I needed a simple player for two of my sites featuring playlists with dozens of mp3 files. The installation was a breeze as was setup for the players. However, I couldn’t find a way to create a player with a set height with a scrollbar within each player. So, I visited the WP forums and asked if it was possible. Imagine my surprise when I not only received a reply, but a simple fix within minutes of posting my question. All I had to do was add one line of code. Viola! Thank you so much. Highly recommended.
