Your making it to hard just upload the files then make a folder called music or sounds or whatever then put all you mp3's in there dont edit the playlist.xml except where the songs go or to add another station. And to add another station just change this:

Well 1st like to say "awesome site"!

I rode the short bus, I get the mp3 block to show up, remote works, just no playlists? Installation says "Must make changes in the server.xml.

No idea, thanks in advance for helping this flintstone!

You need to modify the playlist.xml file in a text editor, follow the guide in the playlist file. You need to have music to add to the file in order for the player to play the music.

All the music needs to be online.

Thanks for the quick response...

By "online" it must me on some site available, or can I download an mp3 file from my personal collection into my server, making it available there?
Or is that a no-no

I have been editing it directly from my "file manager" inside my server "admin" will try editing outside and re-loading.

Thanks

So long as it is on a server it does not matter, you need to make sure that the mp3 address is in full when you are editing the file.

I just installed the jukebox block and it works AWSUM!! many thanks!!

due to space constraints ill only be able to upload 15-20 songs and still leave enuf room for my site and its own functions-- (my songs are recorded at 320, so file sizes are kinda big)

here's my question-- is Mp3 the best format for this?? my understanding is mp3 is the most 'compact' format to record music in.

longshot question----can i link my jukebox to someone elses collection?
(probably frowned upon for sure

)

thanks in advance!!

MP3 is the only one that will take and "hotlinking" is bandwidth theft so I suggest not to do it.

thats kinda what i thought.....
just to clarify, i did not mean to link to someones collection by "theft", I didn't know if someone offered such a service out there--

thanks for the quick reply!!
you all have a very nice site by the way, lottsa information here---

oh sorry..I misunderstood. I haven't heard of anyone actually offering mp3 for hotlinking...you might want to do a search and see if there is
