I have a playlist of mp3 files.

When the player preset is the default with "Show Playlist" the playlist plays but doesn't show the individual track titles (which are selected by the View and assigned to MediaFront.) The tracks advance but since there is no display there is no way to start anywhere but the beginning.

When I select "Playlist Only" the preview player and the player on the playlist page becomes a white box with no play button and no playlist.

Thanks!

Do you have a live example of this breakage?

It is a dev site and I'm having a difficult time getting it to display for anon users. I'm missing a permission somewhere.

Hopefully the attached screenshots will be helpful.

mediafront-whiteplayer.png -- this is the player with the "Playlist Only" checkbox checked.

mediafront-no-playlist.png -- this is the player with the "Show Playlist" checkbox checked. If I click Play it will play all 6 songs in the list but doesn't show a playlist.

This view is put together like you describe in your Advanced Mediafront 2.0 presentation video. The player is in the header.

Thanks. I'll see if I can get this to be accessible.

Here's an example of the white box.

It also comes up blank (white) in the preset preview.

I'm going to take it offline again. I think I figured a few things out. I'll let you know.

I was able to get it working but not in the way that was described in the video. I now see that I was trying to do something slightly different that the video example. When I put the player in the header it would not show the playlist in the player which is what I wanted. So, I put set the player as the view format and then built a separate view with the list of songs which link to Song nodes containing lyrics, etc.

Thanks again for responding so quickly to my request and for your work on MediaFront.
