Simple Flash Mp3 Player

Flabell Simple Flash Mp3 Player

Minimalistic Mp3 player with a twist, perfect for your website. It supports the basic functions of an mp3 player:
- play
- pause
- draggable volume bar
- sound visualizer

It includes a special sound visualizer that changes when you drag the volume bar.

Note: The song used in this file is a sample, under 30 seconds for legal reasons. You can easily update it in the HTML code (it's passed through FlashVars).

FILE UPDATE [update 02]:

- the FLA and AS3 code were rebuilt following the new Flabell standards
- "init" function was added
- "loadNewSound" function was added, which can be called anytime. Let's say the player is used inside a flash gallery and needs to load a new sound on clicking a thumb.
- new "settings.xml" to customize every color
- totally resizeable

Note: there won't be an update to make this component play multiple sounds. We want to keep it simple. We'll create a different component with these features.

The easiest way to keep the music playing is to make all your html links open in a new window!
Thanks for the player!

Where can I find the blue theme without messing with the source folder?

Simply set the colors you need in the XML file.

In settings.xml, you have this:

                
<loop value="true"/>

We're sorry, but the loop functionality was implemented in an older version for this player. We changed the component in the meantime and, for now, it's not possible to loop the song with this player.

We could help you and do some custom work. If you're interested, please send us a message at [email protected] You'll have the loop feature in no time.

Hey guys, your player looks amazing! Now I know I'll probably sound dumb, but I'm not sure how to incorporate this into my site I'm building. If one of you guys could please email me with a short description on how to get started that would be great! My email is [email protected], oh and when I tried opening the FLA file, it said "Unexpected file format"?...

Hi. Please make sure you open the CS3 version if you use Flash CS3.

I did....but when the fla file opens, I can't change anything with the player? And when I go to preview the swf movie, it doesn't work?....I don't know what to do lol

Hi. Please make sure you get a support ticket, and we'll be able to look over your website and assist you. Thanks.

Well I figured out how to change the player's color scheme and what not, but when I go to test movie it doesn't work

Only use the XML to change colors, otherwise you can break things if you don't know Flash. ;)

I will work on getting the support ticket. I have a simple html webpage in the works I just need to know how to implement your flash component into my code. Hope we can get it to work when I get the ticket! =)

Definitely. Note you should be able to do that without any assistance though, if you read carefully the questions and answers in the FAQ section.

I have been trying a bunch of different things and I still cannot figure out how to put more than one instance of the player on one HTML page. I have tried editing the ID of the flash but maybe I am not editing the right thing. Can you help me know more of what to do to accomplish this? Thanks!

Hi. Please check our horizontal scroller demo, where we put different instances of the same swf file in one html. If you still cannot figure it out, please purchase a support ticket and contact us at [email protected], so we can do it for you.

the loop feature isn't working, I added the code, but it wont auto-loop and repeat the song.

Can I add more then 1 song and randomize it?

Thanks, Avidan

 

Andrei Potorac

on 19/4/10

No. You can only add one song.

What about the auto-loop? it won't work for me. When the song ends you need to press the play button again, I want it to just restart the song.

Thanks.

There is no loop either. If you want this to be added, please make sure you get a support ticket, and get in touch with us at support, so we can help you add the loop feature.

Hi, I wondered if there was a way to add another line to the player, (so its artistname, songname, and maybe songalbum) by adding another flashvars and do I need to change the stage dimensions as well.

// other vars
flashvars.artistName = "Busta Rhymes";
flashvars.songName = "Break Ya Neck";
flashvars.songURL = "songs/song.mp3";

I assume I would add it here, but I am not sure if my thinking is correct or if I need to change anything else.

Please let me know,
Thanks
Kim

I'm afraid this isn't the right way to do it. For this changes, you would have to edit the fla, the code and the xml as well.

1. I downloaded the Simple Flash Mp3 Player. What should I upload to my server?

If you want to deploy the files to your server, you need to upload the content INSIDE the deploy folder. The other folder is the source folder, and that contains all the files used to create the product.

2. Where can I find some sample code for embedding the swf file?

Please open the index.html file, and select view > page source from the browser menu OR open the index.html file with a text editor.

3. Is the MP3 file externally loaded?

Yes, the mp3 file is passed in the FlashVars.

4. I want to modify the player. Are you available for custom work?

Yes, at the market rate. Please contact us at [email protected]

5. Can I use different fonts for the player?

Yes, the steps for changing the fonts are: - edit the FLA file - embed the fonts - change them in the textfield you need new fonts - export the swf file

6. When I open the file it says font missing. What should I do?

Before opening the Flash file you need to install the fonts that came with the download. After that you can make the changes you need in the FLA, and the fonts won't be missing.

7. What is the shadow layer for?

The shadow layer is used for display purposes only. You can easily remove it, and align the mcPlayer to the 0x0 coordinates. Make sure you change the stage size back to 281x78 before you publish the swf file, if you want to remove the shadow layer. This way, the swf size have the same dimensions as the Simple Flash Mp3 Player.
