For those that don’t know, making and maintaining the Xspf player and other projects is very taxing on my time. Hours and hours have gone into developing everything on this website, and answering email after email, all for no charge. If you like what you see on the website, consider donating a few dollars to help keep these projects going, and open-source. Any sum of money, large or small helps support what I do. The donations are made through Paypal, which accepts almost any credit card or eCheck. The menu bar above has a link, or you canclick here.
Three updates. On the extended player, video playback has been fixed. On the slim, custom variables were not available, this has been fixed. And for both, a bug that showed ‘undefined’ has been corrected. http://blog.lacymorrow.com/projects/xspf-wmp/
After hours of testing and retesting the external variables loading for the player, I have not been able to come up with a way to fix the problem that makes the player stop after finishing a song. If anyone has any suggestions, they would help greatly. It is a problem with the ‘onEnterFrame’ function that checks if the variables are loaded. The last thing on my list of things to try is a load handler. The only way to fix the problem though, is to not have a loadurl. The playlist creator has been adjusted accordingly. http://blog.lacymorrow.com/projects/playlist-creator/
Slight Viewr update, fixes the fact that it wasn’t working correctly, as well as implementing a new loading listener for smoother transitions, especially for those with slower browsers.

Xspf 4.4 fixes the autoload issue where it loads double playlists, or will not autoload. Also fixes the disregarding of autoplay=false and autoload=false inputs. Get it Here.
So many people were having trouble getting playlists and the players to work, and the lack of good documentation did not help. I have created a small playlist and html generator for the Xspf Player. This generates a playlist file, a variables.txt, the deconcept SwfObject javascript file, and your html code to embed. This also breaks the IE ‘Active Content Update’, so no more, “click on the movie to activate” bubbles. Just download the player, fill in your info in the generator, and anyone can have a music player in under ten minutes. Use it Here.
This update (4.3 & 3.1) should hopefully fix all the loading problems many of you have been having. Even loading using an external variables file. I’m wary to say it, because of the thousands of emails I got about previous problems, but send me a message or comment if you have problems.

I have been getting a lot of emails lately, and for those of you intending to email me, here are some tips:
I always read blog comments as soon as they are sent, usually within 24 hours. If a reply is necessary, I may or may not reply then and there, depending on the length of the reply.
As for contacts through, my website, or help you need, a reply is always, first come, first serve. Paying customers however, will always be first.
The Html (low bandwidth) version of my website is completed, save for the contact form. I tried to give the same look and feel without using any necessary javascript, or too many extras. I have tried to create my site so that it will work seamlessly on any OS with any browser. The blog problems are slowly being fixed.http://www.lacymorrow.com/html
