hmm.. this is not direclty implemented. the hack you did should work, if you did it right. I mean, my advice would have been.. "open helper.php and add the necessary code...".

check that you paths to files on your streaming server are correct... and also check that you have permission to stream from that server..

I managed to get streaming to work by hacking the helper.php in the jwplayer plugin. I had been modifying the identical line in the module helper.php and that hadn't worked.

However for it to work, I have to give it the entire path and filename to the mp3 file. using muscol variables doesn't work.

Here is the hack that works on line #104:

s".$unique_id.".addParam('flashvars','streamer=rtmp://stream.apmmusic.com/myapm_stream_app&file=".'/audio/BR/BRU_BR_0480/BRU_BR_0480_00101.mp3'. $string_params . "&autostart=false&repeat=list');

Here is the hack that doesn't:

s".$unique_id.".addParam('flashvars','streamer=rtmp://stream.apmmusic.com/myapm_stream_app&file=".$playlist_url. $string_params . "&autostart=false&repeat=list');

Thanks,

but.. the first hack only plays ONE file!! :S right? I mean, that specific file.

the module plays a PLAYLIST. that means that is the playlist that needs to contain the right filenames.

so.. have you tried to write "/audio/BR/BRU_BR_0480/BRU_BR_0480_00101.mp3" (well, one different for each song of course) on each filename (on the song form)?

if you send me a link to your site I'll tell you how you can see what files is trying to play the module, so you probably will find out why it does not work right now.

I guess we have to divide this into two issues then. The 1st an individual song within the plugin and the 2nd; a playlist.

For the single song, the url in the song config is:
/audio/BR/BRU_BR_0480/BRU_BR_0480_00101.mp3

But somehow the variable is not passed correctly. (only hardcoding the mp3 path works). It doesn't play but the hardcoded version does.

Here's what the non-working version expands to within Mozilla View Source.
s1264786891.addParam('flashvars','streamer=rtmp://stream.apmmusic.com/myapm_stream_app&file=%2Fcomponent%2Fmuscol%2F%3Fview%3Dalbum%26id%3D8%26format%3Dfeed%26type%3Dxspf&width=250&height=20&playlist=none&autostart=false&repeat=list');

look at this:

http://www.website-dev.apmdev.com/component/muscol/?view=album&id=8&format=feed&type=xspf

as you can see the file that is trying to play is

rtmp://stream.apmmusic.com/audio//audio/br/bru_br_0480/bru_br_0480_00101.mp3

there's a double AUDIO folder, probably this is the error

you probably added this twice, one on songs server and the other to songs path... you should erase one, and be careful also to not add too many "/" !!

I mean, I guess the file should be

rtmp://stream.apmmusic.com//audio/br/bru_br_0480/bru_br_0480_00101.mp3

instead of

rtmp://stream.apmmusic.com/audio//audio/br/bru_br_0480/bru_br_0480_00101.mp3
