Song streams


Using Jamroom

By streaming them, that would change the #.

but I reckon you're wanting to fiddle with the number for some reason or other as the admin user, so the datastore count field you want to change is:
 audio_file_stream_count 

There are a few ways to change it, either by the datastore browser:
ACP -> DEVELOPER TOOLS -> TOOLS -> DATABASE ADMIN

Or via the audio modules "Datastore Browser"
ACP -> PROFILES -> AUDIO -> TOOLS -> DATASTORE BROWSER

Or via the batch editor if that's installed.

Removing Black Bars from Youtube Thumbnails


Design and Skin Customization

right click and see what URL the image is using, on your site its set to:
http://img.youtube.com/vi/AklEEuRKpnc/0.jpg

so the replace that tries to replace any hqdefault.jpg with mqdefault.jpg wont be found in that url, so wont be replaced.

So for you the code would be:
0.jpg|mqdefault.jpg

There are many ways to do the same thing. The better solution for you is the one I posted in the other thread:

Grid of Videos


Design and Skin Customization

I get confused easily and there are a bunch of questions happening at the same time here. What does "Regrettably it didn't seem to work." mean?

Of the videos on this page:
http://animatedfilmmakers.com/devilsangelsanddating/videos

One of them has the image that appears here:
http://img.youtube.com/vi/AklEEuRKpnc/0.jpg

It seams like the image URL that you are after is this one:
http://img.youtube.com/vi/AklEEuRKpnc/mqdefault.jpg

So you need to adjust the img src="...." that is showing the image to the structure of the one you're wanting.

---edit--
so if that code above is still what you're using, the the line that has:
<img src="{$item.youtube_artwork_url}" class="rank_image" width=330 height=186/>
change to
<img src="https://img.youtube.com/vi/{$item.youtube_id}/mqdefault.jpg" class="rank_image" width=330 height=186/>

and that should get rid of the black bars. Once we get rid of them, we can move on to the next issue.

Design and Skin Customization

michaelcawood:
Here's the latest version of the code I'm trying. It still has a few issues though:

1) Most videos seem to be adding borders where they aren't required and squashing the vertical.

@derrickhand300 has the solution for you on this one too:
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/forum/design-and-skin-customization/35371/removing-black-bars-from-youtube-thumbnails

Those black bars are coming in from youtube, use his solution above to get rid of them.

michaelcawood:2) The local "video" movies aren't working. http://animatedfilmmakers.com/devilsangelsanddating/videos/p=50

This is one of the url's that is linked to:
http://animatedfilmmakers.com/devilsangelsanddating/charles-lin/video/42/0717_deviltexturewip

But since you have the "combined video" module on, the uploaded video url got moved to:
http://animatedfilmmakers.com/devilsangelsanddating/charles-lin/uploaded_video/42/0717_deviltexturewip

So need to change the url to that.

There is a function that can be used the the templates to find the url for a module its:
{jrCore_module_url module="jrVideo" assign="murl"}

Then once you've done that you can use /{$murl}/ to output the correct module url in the templates.eg:
{jrCore_module_url module="jrVideo" assign="murl"}
http://animatedfilmmakers.com/devilsangelsanddating/charles-lin/{$murl}/42/0717_deviltexturewip

Design and Skin Customization

Looks like your page is close to what your asking currently:
http://animatedfilmmakers.com/devilsangelsanddating/videos

the only think I can see that is an issue with the links is the image link doesnt contain the name in the url like the text one does:
http://animatedfilmmakers.com/devilsangelsanddating/michael-cawood/youtube/1486/
http://animatedfilmmakers.com/devilsangelsanddating/michael-cawood/youtube/1486/sh0285_earth_roots-effects

Its not a problem that will break anything because the 'sh0285_earth_roots-effects' part of the link is just for show. You could fix it by making the link for the image the same as the link for the text if you liked to.

Is there still a problem you're needing help with?

Global config tabs not updating


Design and Skin Customization

Nmaster88:
It's something like what's on the image. It says "the settings have been successfully saved" but they haven't.
How do you know its not successfully saved? If you are meaning the variables dont change in the templates, did you clear the caches?

Docs:"Reset the caches"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/problems/114/somethings-wrong-what-do-i-do#reset-the-caches

Nmaster88:...Another problem i see is that when i remove arrays from the config.php of the skin, they are not removed from the site....
What arrays?

Its hard to understand what your trying to achieve. More explanation please.

iframe validation


Using Jamroom

Lets start a new thread on this, its a different topic. Others who come here later looking for an answer to "iframe validation" are not going to have this new problem.

Looks like the new problem is related to CSS being stripped out. I can see the PART I and PART II links there, just they are in white and have not surrounding color.

embed issues


Using Jamroom

Strumelia:...But: my config.php for my custom ningja skin doesn't even HAVE the section for 'Player Type'....Should I add this 'Player Type' section in....

Yep, that addition was the update. Compare where it is against the new one that came in in the latest update if you want to position it the same, otherwise wherever is fine above/below.

Great news. Thanks for the update. :)

That wasn't an obvious one. I thought it was a bug at first.
