Hi,
My name is Sylvain, I'm the main developer for
http://www.jamendo.com, a free music website some of you may already know.
We have decided lately to allow all our artists/visitors to use the XSPF player to blog their music from Jamendo.
I was using the extended 0.2.3 player but yesterday I added a few features/bugfixes. Here is the list of what I did, I hope some/all of this patches will make it in the official CVS to improve XSPF player.
- "Image autoload" feature. When autoplay=false && autoload_image=true, it loads the first track's cover, if available, so that the user can see what he'll be playing if he clicks.
- The cover won't load again if it was the same for the previous track.
- Cleanup of the variable initialization code
- Default playlist_title
- info_button_target : New option that configures the behaviour of the "info" button. "_blank" (default) : popup, "_self" : current window, "_top", ... can be even useful for websites with named frames.
- I added a scrollwheel support patch I found on this mailing list. However, it seems to be windows-only. Does anyone know how to support the scrollwheel with flash on other OSes?
- I also added basic keyboard navigation support.
- Made clicking on the cover trigger the same action as the info button.
These patches to the actionscript source are available in our repository. There are some Jamendo-related default variables but that's all. .fla file is the same.

I look forward to having your comments and I may spend some time on implementing a few new features requested by the community, so feel free to tell me!
Regards,
