Weird Question PJ5


Using Jamroom

This would indicate though that somehow Jamroom is involved with your operating system's cut and paste functionality, which is not possible, so not sure what to make of that.

Using Jamroom

I just pushed a small change to Jamroom.net here that should fix this up - let me know if you see any issues.

Thanks!

Weird Question PJ5


Using Jamroom

Dazed:Thanks Brian. It never did that in Jr4 so it was a little odd to see it.

It had to have done it - we use the same TinyMCE in JR5 we did in JR4.

Redirecting to Index page


Installation and Configuration

dobmat:Hi

Yes, I have the .htaccess file in my jamroom folder. I'm using Linux machine and I can see the file if I press ctl+h. I'm using defualt /var/www/ document root directory but I've changed the permissions. Is that causing the probelm.

Thanks.

If you're getting page not found, then it means the mod_rewrite rules are not being used. Have you enabled mod_rewrite on your server? Try doing:

Quote:a2enmod rewrite headers

as the root user, then restart apache - not sure of your distro but it could be:

/etc/init.d/httpd restart

or if you are on ubuntu:

service apache2 restart

Then try again.

Hope this helps!

I know why this is happening, and it is due to HTML Purifier modifying the br tag to a self-closing void element, when that's not what we want. It does not appear HTML purifier can be configured to change this (or at least not with what I've read so far) so I'll need to come up with a work around, so will try to get that done here when I'm back in my office.

Thanks!

Stream length


Installation and Configuration

izhmel:so I have to modify over 2000 songs ? we had this issue before and it got fixed and I did not have to edit over 2000 songs Brian

You actually should not, but I'm not sure on your system what state things are in. It's a very simple setup - basically:

- IF an Item Price is set for the audio file
- AND there is a "sample" file created for it in the profile's media directory
- THEN stream the sample file instead

It's a simple setup, and I have tested here with both PayPal and FoxyCart modules, and it is working.

So if you are seeing that it is NOT working on your site, then one of the first 2 conditions is not TRUE - either the song does not have a price set OR the sample file does not exist for that song. The sample file will be created when a song is created or modified, and a price is set.

Yeah - sounds like the .htaccess file is missing. Note that on most systems a file beginning with a period is considered a "hidden" file - make sure you have set your FTP client to "show hidden files" and make sure the .htaccess file that came with the JR core download has been uploaded to your Jamroom directory on your web host.

Hope this helps!

Weird Question PJ5


Using Jamroom

Dazed:So whenever I cut and paste something on JR5 using PJ, I get the black background also.

This isn't anything to do with the skin - this is your computer/os. Same thing here on Mac - when you copy something that is white text on black background, it is copied that way.

- paste into TextEdit
- Format -> Make Plain Text

There's no way around that that I am aware of.

Sorry!

3 questions about audio purchases


Using Jamroom

iLoveHouseMusic:1. What section of the song is sampled for the preview? Meaning how is that determined during the encoding, does it take a predetermined section or randomly select 60 second section?

The sample section is taken from the center of the song (time wise).

iLoveHouseMusic:2. How can I display the MP3 bitrate? eg "320 mp3"? What I'm going to do is pitch to Artist that they can sell "extended mixes" in higher bit rate (eg for DJs) at $2.99 and then "Radio Edits" for regular audiences at 128k for $.99

The key is $audio_file_bitrate - check out the audio Datastore browser and you can see all the keys that are stored for each audio file.

iLoveHouseMusic:3. Is the foxy cart bundles module used for bundling up songs into an Album and setting an album price?

exactly.

Hope this helps!

Using Jamroom

I tried it on your warning section there, and there was no error, but it did not save the break, so I'm not sure what is up. I'll check it out when I can here and let you know what's up.

Thanks!
