HFS ~ HTTP File Server / Re: My work for streaming .mp3 files (*NEW VERSION 2.01*)

« on: December 22, 2006, 11:44:06 AM »

Maverick, thanks to your help in test mp3link. I'll fix these bugs as soon as possible.

And, could you tell me where I can find the correct 'mp3player.swf' and a workable [file.mp3] code section? I think it's a good way for me to find the problem.

I hope mp3link is a good optional solution for the music directory for windows clients. However, It will be nice if the build-in [file.mp3] and mp3link can work at the same time.

(*NEW VERSION 2.01*)
The new version v2.01 is available on http://140.112.23.26:6897/mp3link.exe
The testing page is http://140.112.23.26:6897. You can try it on your own HFS.

New Features:
1. Compatibility is extended to Windows 98/ME/2000/XP (have not tested on Vista), but DIRECTX 9.0 must be installed
2. It is able to Play & Pause at ‘any’ time now
3. New option : 'Lock on the playing page', the default mode is ‘on’. In this mode, change the directory won't bother you (especially you are editing the playlist)
   (Note: Lock on mode will be automatically enabled when double click the PlayList Box on the right side)
4. New option:  Let Messenger show the file I’m listening
5. Enhanced PlayList editor: Inverse Selection, Duplicated Selection and support simple drag and drop
6. Search the lyrics automatically on website by the title of the song. Show dynamic lyrics if possible, otherwise show the static lyrics or ‘Not Found’ string (Still under development, any good idea?)

Instruction:
 1. Put the mp3link.exe in any folder you like
 2. In the first time, the program will switch to the 'Setup' page. After input the IP data, click the 'Save and Exit' and run the program again.
 3. If the program works properly, you will in the browser now.

Hi, maverick, Can you give me a testing account on your site? The HFS working on my site is 2.0 alpha20 *Chinese* version. I think the environment might be different with yours. Maybe I can find the bug If I can test my code with your server. My email is zeropt0816@yahoo.com.tw

Thanks maverick, I got it!
The column field "Filename" in the template must be replaced as "description"
Because I use this tag to identify whether a folder contains mp3 or not.
In fact, I find that is not necessary at all.

Thank you!
My server has only 128MB of ram, so it's a little slow..
When you click on any .mp3, it will start playing in few seconds, meanwhile, a bubble hint will show the song name in the tray icon.

I have developed a small *client* browser (mp3link) using the basic components in BCB 2006. In this program, you are able to click on a mp3 and it will start playing while downloading in background. All the events are handled therefore the mediaplayer won’t appear to bother you. The next song will also be automatically started after the current one completed. Besides these, I’ve tried to make a .wpl file editor for those who want to listen their favorite songs. Note that the playlist file is compatible with Windows Mediaplayer 9.0 or latter.

Now, I’d like to share the binary and source for those who enjoy HFS (nice project). If you are interested in my work, please visit http://140.112.23.26 with username/password : “mp3link”. I have a few .mp3 files in two folders for testing and one folder for mp3link binary/source. In the binary file pack (mp3link15.zip), URL.txt can be replaced by the address of your site. Please feel free to share the experience to us and modify it for your own purposes. However, there are still some limitations in this initial version. For example, only .mp3 files are supported. I’ve tested it on Windows XP with HFS 2.0 Beta 35, but it seems have some problems in win98. I’m glad if you can help me to test it and give me some ideas in this work. If you have any good idea, I’m glad if we can discuss the techniques in the code or you can upload your modifications to my site (folder mp3link is able to upload). Maybe it's possible to add more features in the future versions.

Function Summary:
1. Streaming .mp3 files (background play and downloading simultaneously)
2. It can create/load/save the Microsoft Windows Media Player supported "Playlist" file (.wpl)
3. It supports most of the http file servers. Needless to say, HFS is the best choice

mp3link 1.6alpha02 is now available from http://140.112.23.26/mp3link%20project/mp3link16alpha02.zip
