Apologies in advance if this issue is pathetic, but I cannot get this module to work at all.

In a Views block, with 'jplayer player' selected under Format I get a player interface, but no PLAY button appears and the mp3 does not/cannot play.

On the nodes themselves, 'jplayer player' is again selected in Display Suite, but nothing appears.

The paucity of documentation and options on 'admin/settings/jplayer' make me think this module is not ready for release. Please help. I have read and followed what documentation there is. I have a Blueprint-based theme.

I can get 'MP3 Player' to work, but do not want to use Flash - PLEASE HELP.

I am having the exact same issue as described above. Player loads, but I never see a Play button, only Pause and Stop. I am using a different theme from OP. I have tried on Firefox 4.0.1 and Safari 5.0.5 on a Mac, and iOS on an iPad. Thanks for any help on this, I also am hoping for a non-Flash solution to playing mp3s..

I have the same problem. There is no javascript attached to any of the controls. The player is there, but non-funtional.

How are you attaching the MP3 file? Is it through a file field or...?

toneguy commented

Yes, I am attaching the file through a file field. I can play the same file using the MP3 Player...

Same issue, using JPlayer as display type on node. File ls uploaded OK.

js script would not seem to be loaded, although admin/settings/jplayer reports:

"The jPlayer library (version 2.0.0) successfully found in the sites/all/libraries/jplayer directory."

Many thanks.

The module simply does not work with the new version of the jPlayer library

Same issue. Doesn't work. Pause and Stop.

Did install module and player correctly. Filefield also correct
"The jPlayer library (version 2.0.0) successfully found in the sites/all/libraries/jplayer directory."

HOWEVER,

Does work with jplayer 1.2.0
"The jPlayer library (version 1.2.0) successfully found in the sites/all/libraries/jplayer directory."

Thank you! Version 1.2.0 works for me also. Glad to be able to ditch the Flash player.

based on my extensive testing the D6 version of the jplayer requires the 1.2.0 version of the jplayer js. The Drupal 7.x version of the jplayer module requires the 2.0.0 version of the jplayer js.

I'd also suggest the transliteration.module to ensure files with spaces in the names are dealt with properly.

Title: Does not work at all » 6.x version requires jplayer v1.2.0
Priority: Normal » Critical
Status: Closed (fixed) » Active

Just want to affirm #12: jplayer 2.0.0 on 6.x install mysteriously didn't work. Only fix was to use jplayer 1.2.0.

I've revised the title to reflect this for other searchers.

Doc maintainer: please take a moment to add this to the module page and README.txt. On Drupal 6.x, you must download jplayer 1.2.0!

Thanks.

Just a note that patches to the readme.txt can be made and attached by those using that version.

The maintainer/s of the module may want to consider adding this information to the project page.

So, does this mean that there will be no support for jPlayer 2.x.x for Drupal 6?

@#17 The question is difficult for anyone to answer who isn't willing to maintain the current module or already maintaining the current module. Drupal contrib needs more (quantity) people will to maintainer/co-maintain existing modules. The more people that can step forward the more progress can be made specifically when the small pool of existing maintainers/co-maintainers get busy with other things.

The readme.txt install needs to be updated to read:

2) Download jPlayer from http://www.jplayer.org/download/.
IMPORTANT --> Use version 1.2.0 for Dupal 6.x (The latest version will be fine for Drupal 7)
The downloaded directory only contains 2 files, jplayer.jquery.min.js and Jplayer.swf.
Place these two files in sites/all/libraries/jplayer.

Changes are:
1) The address has been updated
2) An important note has been added for Dupal 6 installations
3) The file name jplayer.jquery.min.js has been changed.

Notes to administrators:
Please cut and paste the above until Drupal 6.x is compatible with latest version of jPlayer (at time of writing 2.1.0)
jPlayer 2.1.0 has four files, the two mentioned above and two more in a subdirectory called "add-on".

I'd make the changes myself but I don't know how.

PS: Good work - it's a nice module.
