trying to install and so far so good, but i'm also learning vbull in depth quickly. : )

my question is when i get to:

Find:
============================================
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="calendar.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[calendar]</a></td>
============================================

After add:
============================================
<!—Mp3 Player Launch -->
<if condition="$show['member']">
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="javascript:NewWindow=window.open('mp3playeri ndex.php?do=viewmp3playerpopup','newWin','width=50 0,height=500,left=0,top=0, toolbar=No,location=No,scrollbars=1,status=No,resi zable=No,fullscreen=No');
NewWindow.focus(); void(0);">vbMp3 Player</a></td>
</if>
<!—End Mp3 Player Launch -->
============================================

i go to the navbar section and i hit "edit" but none of this code is there. when i hit "view original" it's there.

now i have installed a theme and i think this could be where i need some help. how do i get this code into the menu of the theme i got? yes i can ask the person i got the theme from (and have!) but also wondered if i'm missing a point here.

do i merge? i don't think i revert cause that would, yea it did. had to reinstall the template. so my question is - how do i add this to the menu? i'm on the latest vbull so i didn't know if there was another way to do this or if i need to talk to the guy who made the template.

if i can get the radio stream to work that will help me with my left side not so pretty part and bury my shoutcast link in there!

-------
edit: i figured it out by just looking at it enough to where the repetition took over. it's up and going and not having a blank space in the filename really helps. : )

now to figure out how to put a stream in there.

thanks!

Glad to hear you got it working! This is a problem with custom styles, trouble is modifications have to be coded to suit the default vBulletin style - even though many people use customized styles, each one varies in one way or another.

If you cannot work out how to use a shoutcast stream I'll post the details on how this is achieved. We have one shoutcast stream on the demo on this site, located in Playlist 1 and last entry. I think I named it 'Radio test'.

Regards...

yea, i just had to think about it for a bit. does the player happen to come in red tones? the other question i have is mine is v3.6.4 or something like that and there's a v4 out there also. the release dates show 3.6.4 to be newer but i read somewhere the stream need v4 to work, but it looks older.

it was a long long day teaching myself the inner workings of vbull, but i made a lot of ground just by looking at the code and seeing what stood out.

so if you can let me know the version issue thing i'd appreciate. till then i'll look where you suggest and see if i just misread. i did listen to the stream and that's perfect, but i don't see the code to put on the mp3 stream to make it happen. i'll plug in various stream types i have and see what i can figure out. any details most welcome.

It's only available in the two versions, black & blue and the light colored version. Both work with all versions of vBulletin that support product XML import. v4.0 contains an update in the coding but the player can be kept the same, the mp3 file itself was not updated.

I post how to allow shoutcast streams work a little later, just busy at the moment with other projects.

do i need v4 for the shoutcast stream to work? the player is working fine, just no shoutcast. i'm happy to wait for the help though cause this 1 player is about as perfect as it gets for me!

you've got a great eye for graphics.

Hi,

Thanks for the compliments! Always appreciated... Sorry, for not replying sooner, but we are busy setting up a new store script for commericial modifications, and brand-free services for all modifications.

Right to get Shoutcast stream to play in the Mp3 player all you need really is the IP address and Port number.

Here's an example:
http://64.62.194.11:8050/;stream.nsv&type=mp3

You would enter the above in the url field. Now this is how any shoutcast is made to play with our mp3 player.

In the example we have taken the Shoutcast IP then the port number, hence we have the following:
http://64.62.194.11:8050

Now the Mp3 player cannot play this without the url ending without the mp3 characters at the end, so to do this we simply add this:
/;stream.nsv&type=mp3

This is now in a format that the Mp3 player will recognize, this will work with any shoutcast stream. Remember, you only need the IP and the Port number, and as long as you enter /;stream.nsv&type=mp3 it will play.

Simple, but effective!
