This is very nice, thanks for taking the time to put this together! biggrin Just one question: is there any way I can make the music start as soon as the visitor loads the page?

By the way, the host I'm using is File Lodge. It seems pretty good. Plus it's free.

Have you had the problem where it only uploads part of the song, or makes the song speed really fast or really slow? I had those problems when I tried using it once gonk

I wanted to post and thank you so much for putting this together! I was wondering how to put one of those nifty playlists together, and now I know.

Thank you again. heart

Okay, I'm a little confused now. I have my playlist finished one Webjay, and I found a host (imageshack) and I uploaded my swf player file. Now I'm working with the code. I understand the code if I want a single song:

<track>
<location>http://www.example.com/folder/song.mp3</location>
<annotation>Name of Track</annotation>
</track>

So I guess for each song I add another track?

But I don't know where in the code to put the player URL.

This part of the tutorial has me confused: http://url of flash player file?playlist_url=url of playlist file

I don't know where the file for my Webjay playlist would be(I only know how to get the urls for the mp3 files individually), and I where would I put http://url of flash player file?playlist_url=url of playlist file in my profile theme?

[Belthasar727]

Okay, I figured out how to get my Webjay playlist as one file.

I just realized that code on the first page isn't for my profile theme, I have to organize that and upload it, with another host. crying

Yeah,

http://url of flash player file?playlist_url=url of playlist file

that code is what goes in the multimedia page

<track>
<location>http://www.example.com/folder/song.mp3</location>
<annotation>Name of Track</annotation>
</track>

and this code goes in an externally hosted .xspf file

Hope you're getting it figured out smile

[Belthasar727]

So then all I'm missing at this point is a host for the .xspf file...

I'm currently using File Den and it seems pretty good. The activation email will take a while to arrive and you might have to have the email resended to you a few times. It took about 4 hours for my activation email to arrive... But apart from that, it's really good. (^_^)

If you use webjay, they make the xspf file for you smile

@Sakran: I'll post it smile
