Title: Help with Autoplay/ embedded player
Post by: jey2283 on April 13, 2007, 01:44:16 am: I'm not really sure where to file this post. I have a question about using an embedded player. When i upload .wav files it plays with quicktime. What i would like to do is upload .msv files and have them play with a sony player. Does anyone know how to make it so it plays with the sony player ...and if the person doesn't have it installed it does what like windows media player would do and ask if they would like to download and install the appropraite player/plug in? MSV will play in windows media player with the correct plugin. So i guess my question is, what do i need to do to make coppermine recognize MSV as an audio file and attempt to play it with windows media player?
THANK YOU

There are mods to include server side players for one or two filetypes such as .flv files though.

If you carefully select your filetypes them most users should have no problem playing them.

Coppermine as standard only allows certaint file extensions to be uploaded so if the type you wish to use is not on that list (like your sony files) then you need to install Nibblers' excellent filetypes plugin. This will allow you to upload those files.

Post by: Joachim Müller on April 13, 2007, 10:09:07 am: If you have just installed and you don't have much data in the database, then don't perform an upgrade, but start from scratch, installing a vanilla cpg1.4.10 as suggested in our docs.

i am pretty sure i followed the directions to a T. i tried to go to admin.php but it just says "no module exist". (this is what it says for all phps i try to cue up).

www.sharenotes.com/friends/modules/cpg is the most direc tpage.
