Audio skin does not show song title - Customize appearance?

Description

First of all this is a great module!

I have to questions:

1) I went through the tutorial about the mp3 player. Everything works fine, except when I use the audio skin, the title of the song (which is of course the title of the node) is not showing. With the default skin I can see the title correctly.

Also in the showcase, it seems that you can show artist and song title separately. Do I need mp3 metadata for this to work (like the getID3() module)?

2) How can I customize the appearance, apart from changing the colors (which I saw is doable)? For example, I would like to remove the full screen functionality of the default skin, or remove the voting options, or remove the views for each song.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

These fields are populated from CCK field... If you make some text fields that are the following it should work...

song_artist
song_song

Let me know if this works.

Travis.

I have created the following in CCK for the content type i created for audio files:

Label Name Type

Song Artist field_song_artist Text

Song Title field_song_song Text

Still not working. Also, not sure if this matters, but my content type is not called "audio" since i also have the audio module activated thus that content type would create a conflict.

Hi, like the previous poster on this issue I too am interested in themeing the skin. I cant find any documentation other than documentation that says how great the themeing capabilities of Dash are.

I have had problems in the past with two 'audio' content types, you might try changing the name of one of them to to MP3 or something, keeping the same names for your fields. Also it helps if you label those fields "Song" and "Artist."

Let me know if this works.
