A little OT: Looking for flash mp3 player for site

Daft question maybe, but why do you want a player ?
Most browsers can play such files if the person using it allows it, and if they do not like, then having to download your player isn’t likely to find favour.
I’d just make the file, drop it into your site, and see what happens ?

Check out https://www.radioblogclub.com/

https://www.orbitjuice.com click on “OrbitJuice Radio” in the menu.
I rigged it so it skins itself with the site.
(shameless plug).

Thanks Guys,
I just wanted an integral player for music I create so the user don’t have to open an external player.
I will check out these links.
Thanks
Karl

Orbitjuice, you rock! Supergroove, huh? You’re not an ex-pat kiwi by chance?

Well duh. Of course you are. Trust me not to notice the ‘kiwiblog’ button ??

lol!

Check out Roland Schaer’s mp3 player – https://www.rolandschaer.ch – and look for FSound under downloads. It’s an MX component. Bear in mind that your user will have to stay on the page for it to stream. Therefore, you’d have to have it in a new window so that they can browse and listen simultaneously. I plan to do this for my site, when I finally get round to doing the damn thing ;0)

This is one of my biggest pet peeves… I have embedded music turned off for a reason here people! This goes back all the way to people embedding midi files in their pages way back in the day… SO irritating to be browsing the web, and suddenly have some unwanted song blasting out of my speakers (especially when I’m at work… lol)

If it’s not embedded and people can elect to start or stop the music any time they desire, is it so bad?

I have no problem with it being a “click here to pop up a new window and listen to this song” type of feature, but that wasn’t the impression I had gotten from the originator of the thread… If that’s the case (ie the music doesn’t start right when I load the page, but instead is something optional that I can do later) then by all means, please accept my apologies… just please, PLEASE don’t make it so that your song automatically starts playing as soon as I go to your page. First off, it’s really amateurish (I hate trying to hunt down the “stop playing music” button)… and second off, it scares the bejeebus outta me ??

You can set up FSound so that it doesn’t play automatically. It can also be configured so that the buffer for the stream is however long you want (5, 10, 20 sec etc) or that the whole tune has to be downloaded before playing. And I agree with you antifuse, embedded tunes are evil.
