Hi,
I was wondering if any of you have any time at all, could you download my very simple mp3 player and user test it.

It doesn't have a fancy XML list, super cool features etc. That's the way I built it so please don't slate me. It's for web novices to add background music or short sample clips.

Look foward to hearing if it works for you.
I will be building other more advance players with free source code, but this is all for now.

Best

PS Still tweaking the site

what a hell, you probably need less than 10 lines of code to play single mp3 in background. includding comments! as a matter of fact, I have just posted something like that here (http://www.kirupa.com/forum/showthread.php?p=2078617#post2078617), how hard it is to add play button? what I am saying is that I wouldn't make whole page devoted to a single button.

Thanks.
I noticed that your player doesn't have a play button and your mp3 doesn't loop properly.
The thing I'm getting at here is, I don't think you know enough about user interface design, or using sound in Flash. You obviously don't know that you can only loop wav files, not mp3's, unless you want your site to come over as being mediocre and shabby.

There is an onerror code and more. You need this stuff if your audio is important in the use of your site. Imagine if I was waiting for an mp3 that was never going to play. I could go on and on

Anyways. After re-reading this reply, it may seem that I'm being overly defensive or just peeved. I am and I'm not. This is a simple design with code features to ensure that end users are happy.

I notice alot of dodgy players out there, even jeroenwijering's act up alot.

Byeeee

and your mp3 doesn't loop properly.that's because of iso padding. I embedded mp3, but you could go to kirupa, get wav, and than that will not happen.
You obviously don't know that you can only loop wav filesoh sh*t, I didn't noticed this. Ain't gonna retype it now.

I haven't been able to actually do any audible testing, as I'm at work, but I really like the idea.

It looks nice, works well (as far as I can tell without having any sound) and seems very easy to integrate and customise. Sort of like an ipod for the web community. You can be a complete dunce and still have music where you want it, plus it comes in lots of pretty colours!

Good work :smirk:

Thanks people,
Not for the kind remarks, because they ain't always kind, but for actual user feedback. You gotta step outside of those Flash shoes every once in a while and become a "user". One thing that I've learnt the hard way.

Best to you both.

Very novel idea. Simple, and it works :)
