A very "newbie" question...

I was trying to install: http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?item=JW_Media_Player

and I guess I need to install this Module in order for the player to work.

What I need is this:

In my FTP i have a file with a bunch of Media files (.mp3)s --- I want the user to go to the website and see that player and just scroll down or up and simply click on the name of the mp3 file and it plays on the site.

So I installed this module and now I have no idea what to do. I see it in my Administrator and all and I enabled it. Now what?

Sorry for the question, it was probably answered a hundred times.

Thanks for your time.

I'm not quite sure what you're trying to say:
'In my FTP i have a file with a bunch of media files' - this doesn't make any sense.

Did you mean?:
'In my website, I have a directory with a bunch of media files'?

If so, I'd sry with something simple to display a single mp3 in a node by creating a new php node type and using syntax like this:

<?php print swf('song.mp3', SWFDEFAULT, "image=theband.jpg"); ?>

If this works, it shows that your player and SWFTools are installed correctly. Then set up your playlist like this:

<swflist
  files="My song=song1.mp3&&My image=image.jpg&&My Movie=movie.flv"
  player="wijering_mediaplayer"
  width="550" height="250"
  displaywidth="300"
>

All this is explained quite clearly in the documentation at http://emspace.com.au/node/26

Sorry for the confusion.

print swf('http://www.biblicalmission.com/mediafiles/fridayroom/abouna3/vision.mp3', SWFDEFAULT, "image=http://www.biblicalmission.com/player/cross.jpg");

It is working fine, all I see on my home page is a pause button (I don't see the image) i can pause or play it. thats it.

Here it is: http://biblicalmission.com/node/13 All you hear is the file (but the image doesn't show)

---------------------------------------
If you go here: http://emspace.com.au/node/26 at the bottom, the last player shows the video on the left and the files on the right for the user. Anyway to have this show all the files like that but without the video (since i don't have any videos? just mp3(s))

Sorry if i am confusing you, let me know if you need me to clarify anything, sorry.

Thanks for your time

It sounds like you have enabled the 'Generic MP3 player' under /admin/media/swf/handling. Try changing to '1 Pixel Out MP3 Player' under "Default player for single MP3 files", it should give you more options.
