Snippets Pub - A Developer Hangout | Projects / DPlayer-HowTo

Download the files separately or the zip archive with all the necessary files:
Download dPlayer.zip
unzip archive
On your server create a "player" folder, such as here www.mimmory.me/mimir/player
Copy the contents of the archive player folder to this new folder (no editing needed)
at your root - e.g. here www.mimmory.me/ add a file named player.dir

This file contains only one line with the relative path to your player directory
-> e.g. /mimir/media/player/
-> with no spaces before or after

Copy fPlayer.php to the directory with your audio files
(Optional) Put a 95x95px image as a cover-art thumbnail in that directory.
Create an empty file in the same directory with the "Album" information
- for a regular album Artist_-_AlbumName_-_CoverArtFileName.tags
e.g. Pink_Floyd_-_Dark_Side_of_the_Moon_-_CoverThumb.jpg.tags
Note: each category is separated by _-_ (underscore hyphen underscore)

And you're done...

Well that's only if the files already have the right naming format:

Must be in this order:

(if used) - Artist name

(if used) - Album name (always with Artist also)

(required) - Track number

(required) - Song Title

e.g. Pink_Floyd_-_Dark_Side_of_The_Moon_-_09_-_Eclipse.flac

or Pink_Floyd_-_09_-_Eclipse.flac

or 09_-_Eclipse.flac

For Various Artist Albums use

03_-_Pink_Floyd_-_Eclipse.flac

Other naming schemes without _-_ will play, and display on the playlist but not show on the player.
