Flash MP3 Player

Music for your blog.

I wrote this small piece of software, days before the disposal of Spotleid, to embed music right into someone’s posts. It is thoroughly tested and shouldn’t contain major bugs respectively none. Grab it and put it on your site or anywhere you want to. Source code is included, so you may change the look of it. Perhaps I should write a wordpress plugin for it, but since I have no music to share I’m not very interested in doing so. Here is what it looks like …

Volume settings

While pressing shift key (flash player must be focussed), you get this
Flash MP3 Player - Volume settings

There are also some flashvars available for rudimentary customizing the appearance and some options:

  • mp3url: url to the linked mp3 file
  • txt: text displayed in the titlebar
  • bgcolor: color for the background (actually this is needed for the gradient on the right, you can’t see on the screenshots, which overlaps long text)
  • txtcolor: color for title
  • barbgcolor: color for the background of the play progress bar
  • loadbar: color for the load indicator bar
  • posbar: color for the play progress bar
  • loop: indicates whether or not to start from the beginning, if the end of the track was reached

Ok, well I bet you want to see it in action, so here it is (I had to tweak flashifier a little for this purpose):

You should also get the idea of changing the flashvars.

Convinced?

UPDATE

Ok, I wrote a plugin for wordpress too. Grab It here (updated to version 1.01, fixed a bug with some wordpress installations).
