You can insert mp3 player into any page or message. It may serve to let visitors listen to various compositions. It may be a background for you site (do not abuse this capability, don’t forget that mp3 files weight quite a lot, and not all users have broadband Internet access. They won’t be able to load your site in case of automatic playback)

It is used in the following way:
By means of the BB-code:

Code
[audio] [/audio]

Having entered the following
Code
[audio]http://forum.ucoz.com/i_love_ucoz.mp3[/audio]

we'll get

You can also insert a player with the help of JS-code.
To get it use Multimedia - > Insert audio (mp3)
or Multimedia - > Upload audio (mp3) [after uploading press JS-code near necessary file]
As a result, for the mp3 file at http://forum.ucoz.com/i_love_ucoz.mp3
we'll get the following code

Code
<script src="http://forum.ucoz.com/media/?auto=0;small=0;color=0055e9;textoff=0;t=audio;f=http%3A%2F%2Fforum.ucoz.com%2Fi_love_ucoz.mp3" type="text/javascript"></script>

You can also insert it into any place of your site. Besides, it has controlled parameters (settings), which we’ll describe below.

Quote
auto=0;small=0;color=0055e9;loop=0;textoff=0

Values in bold type may be changed from 0 to 1. In this way, you’ll enable them. By means of "color" specify code color.
So, if we change in the code
auto=0 for auto=1 - a song will be played automatically (be careful with this feature, think of those who have slow Internet and paid traffic).

small=1 – will display a small player of two buttons. Here it is:

loop=1 – a file will be played back non-stop (till you press stop)

textoff=1 – will remove text (e.g. "i_love_ucoz.mp3" in the example above)

color=0055e9 (player color management) –instead of 0055e9 write the code of a desired color. Codes can be found out from tables or in Photoshop by clicking on a color.
Example. Let’s take the code of the black color - 000000

Code
<script src="http://forum.ucoz.com/media/?auto=0;small=0;color=000000;textoff=0;t=audio;f=http%3A%2F%2Fforum.ucoz.com%2Fi_love_ucoz.mp3" type="text/javascript"></script>

we'll get:


Music as a background

Code
<bgsound src="URL" loop=5 volume=0 balance=0>

where
URL – file name
loop – number of repeats, if loop="infinite" - unlimited
format - .wav .mid

EMBED tag

It is used to insert into pages multimedia content and other files.

Code
<EMBED attributes> </EMBED>

  • height sets vertical size of embedded object

  • width sets horizontal size of embedded object

  • autostart sets possibility to start while loading, takes on the values "true" or "false"

  • loop sets number of repeats, takes on the values "true" or "false"

  • hidden allows to hide active module, takes on the values "true" or "false"

  • src specifies URL of a multimedia file

  • pluginspage specifies URL of the plug-in for playing back a multimedia file

  • bgcolor sets background of the object

  • type specifies multimedia file type

  • quality specifies multimedia file quality

  • alt sets alternative content

    Code
    <EMBED src="file.swf" menu="true" quality="high" bgcolor="#000066" width="760" height="410" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave"></EMBED>

    As you can see from the example you can insert Flash files, as well as video and audio.

    You can write a code with minimal number of attributes

    Code
    <embed src="video.avi" width="760" height="410">

    Music in a pop-up (new) window

    There is nothing difficult, use JavaScript

    On the page where you want to place the button "Play music" insert the following code between the < head> tags

    Code
    <script>
    function openWindow()
    {
    muzWindow = open("http://www.ucoz.com/music.html", "newWindow", "width=300,height=300, status=no, toolbar=no, menubar=no");
    }
    </script>

  • width=300 height=300 – width, height
  • http://www.ucoz.com/music.html – link to the page with your music

    Then put in any place of the page either the link

    Code

    <a href="#" onClick="openWindow()">Press to play music</a>

    or the button

    Code
    <button onClick="openWindow()">Press to play music</button>
    I'm not active on the forum anymore. Please contact other forum staff.

    CP -> Customize Design -> Site Pages...

    Or you can add it as entry, but I would suggest to make a block for this.

    Kommandant, it's probably FireFox settings or you didn't install quick time player which is needed.

    Read first post of this thread.

    is it must create pop out windows to make music playing non-stop?
    If you don't want music to stop when you refresh or select new page - Yes.

    Quote (hslee81)
    Must press play? can't be auto?
    For one song you can set auto=1 which means song will start after connection.

    Quote (hslee81)
    <--- how to do with this code?
    That's code for link. It wont pop-up automatically.

    Quote (hslee81)
    Is there any other ways?
    For nonstopable music in refreshes - No.

    No. Each song will have own code. For this matter, I suggest to use:

    Code
    <embed src="---Music--Link---" width="144" height="60" autostart="true" loop="true" hidden="false"></embed>
