MP3 Player v2 - PHP

1

Hi Kirupians :slight_smile:

I’ve been promising this for a long time now - and here it finally is; MP3 player v2. I’ve made two versions - one with XML and one with PHP. This is the one with PHP. Though many people have requested it, I did not make this version a streaming player. My main goal with this player was to write a more reliable core with more logical internal functioning to prevent bugs.

This player is available to everyone - you are free to download and use it. Anyone can use and modify it freely.

This version uses PHP to read all the mp3 files in a certain folder passed from Flash. PHP then outputs the filenames as a joined array for Flash to read and process.
However, there are some limitations to the PHP version:

  1. It can only read folders on the local server. This because of security reasons.

  2. The format of the sounds you place in the folder you choose have to be in this format:

Artist - Title.mp3

  1. I have experienced some issues when using Internet Explorer - though others I have asked to test have not. It might have to do with the settings of the users, for example when behind a router or firewall or something … in that case, use the XML version of this player.

The PHP player can be seen in action here.

Feel free to report any bugs.
