gary.moncrieff:I have only tried playing around with this briefly and not getting anywhere at this stage.

I see you guys had premade modules to do this for V4, it would be more efficient for me just to pay for those if they were done for V5.

JR4 had "Seamless" as well, and that is how grouped lists were created as well - at least as far as I remember!

OK - I will test in IE11. It can be a bit tricky since almost all the browsers except Firefox do several calls to the stream file in quick succession - they aren't meant to actually play the file, but want to get the first XXXXX bytes of the file to scan the file header. So there's code to try and determine which plays are "real" plays versus these scans.

Sounds like IE11 might be doing something different now, so I will check that out.

Thanks!

What browser are you using? I'm testing the same thing here and don't see an issue.

Thanks!

I've just tested here and I'm not seeing the stream_file event firing when viewing an audio page.

wave file should be a PCM file
Using Jamroom

DannyA:I think we found it. It was a custom module that generates our waveform. Sorry for the inconvenience.

I'd recommend keeping a "stock" JR system just for instances like this - to help you narrow down where the issue might be. I know you're customizing a lot of things, and it will save us from having to go investigate an issue that is out of our system, or help you find that it's not related to the work you've done.

Thanks!

gary.moncrieff:Thanks for the reply Brian, I am not entirely sure that will work as the event tracer triggers on opening the items page and not just on actually initiating a stream.

That should not be true - the stream_file event is an actual trigger for when the file is streamed.

Quote:For instance visit a video page, check the datastore and the event has been registered, same visit an audio file page and the event has been registered.

If you have the audio player set to autoplay, this will be true.

Quote:It doesn't catch youtube plays either, but depending how that module works it may not be possible.

Yeah - that's likely not possible.

Thanks!

Player Streaming Error
Using Jamroom

kish09:I have the JR4 conversion server and my "getid3" option is set to yes on my media settings. The files are obviously not converting. How do I check if
I have the getid3 package installed in the getid3 subdirectory of my system directory? Please advise.

What does your conversion server status show? And are you converting files in the quota?

This is already doable. You need to:

1) install the Event Tracer module:

https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/networkmarket/92/event-tracer

2) Enable the "jrCore_stream_file" event in the Event Tracer Global Config

3) you can then use a jrCore_list call for the Event Tracer module - i.e.

{jrCore_list module="jrTrace" search="trace_event = stream_file" order_by="_item_id desc" ...(template params, etc)... }

Which would create a list of "whos streaming right now".

Hope this helps!

Limiting Foreach
Jamroom Developers

Jamroom uses Smarty templates, so all the documentation here:

http://www.smarty.net/docs/en/

is applicable. Specifically:

http://www.smarty.net/docs/en/language.function.foreach.tpl

you would use the "iteration" along with a break.

Hope this helps!
