Hello,
Using IE6, FF, or Opera, MP3 loads & plays, but is silent. Any clues?

    Correction: I got this thing working, playlist error. The playist generator generates absolute url to the mp3 but with double slashes. "//music/music2//song.mp3" below
    <location>http://yourdomain.com//music/music2//mp3/02_furelise.mp3</location>
    Does not work otherwise for some reason.
    What is this?

    The Programmers made one error:

    Hey, I just found the problem. The index.html files in both
    the music1 and music2 folders are missing the relative path on
    one of the embed tag positions.

    Look for this:
    <param name="movie" value="xspf_player.swf?playlist_url=playlist_generator.php&autoload=true&autoplay=true&shuffle=true" />

    It's missing the ../ to back up one folder where the damn swf is.

    so change it to this:
    <param name="movie" value="../xspf_player.swf?playlist_url=playlist_generator.php&autoload=true&autoplay=true&shuffle=true" />

    Yeah thats a windows problem that I saw on one particular laptop. It has to do with how flash plays audio so try some searches there. The only fix I found involved changing the registry to use a different playback system which to me does not sound as good. I don't have references for this.

    Good luck,

    Do other flash players produce audio on that computer?

    Location of song mispelled in the playlist will also do this, will load the title but not the song, thus silence. Look at sirmikey dot com, I have it right column with popup link and also have a wider version in the left menu (click music playlists).
