Ok an update on the ToG, been fixing things that i have missed (%folder-comment%
) and editing code, and we finally have our new mp3 method. Thanks to Flynsarmy.
Users that have javascript turned off do not deserve to listen to the music
This is how it works. We are using the mp3player that i have put together for the ToG (1.18kb), the user hits a stream button, which changes the contents of a div, when this appears the user can stream the song, hit stop while it still loads (streams), and to end the streaming, they hit End Stream, it seems that when a person hits this and changes the contents of the div, the mp3 stops playing AND streaming,
.
This method overcomes the cpu and ram problems with multiple loads of the mp3 player, and we like it alot, the next step is to make it only allow the streaming of one file... but thats for later. A new build will be out just before i go on holidays. But this isnt the final, we have 1 extra feature to put in it, but it wont be complete for at least 2wks.
The .tpl is still only 20kb keeping with the ToG's, tiny size / lots of features, thing that we have going atm. I have been testing it on flynsarmy's shaped upload speed of 64k and it works just the same as normal!
