Is there a way to have the XSPF extended player in a block using a playlist created by the audio feeds module? Sort of like the listening station block I read about for the 4.7.x version of the playlist module. If there's a way to put this in a block, I'd be able to use it in Panel pages, which would greatly increase the functionality of my site.

I found a crude way to achieve this, outside of the audio module, but a more refined method is welcome. I made a block and used HTML to embed the xspf player in a block, but currently I'd have to edit the block every time to play a different playlist.

example HTML:

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
data="http://www.site.info/modules/audio/players/xspf_extended.swf?playlist_url=http://site.info/node/16/xspf"
     height="170" width="400">
<param name="movie"
value="http://www.site.info/modules/audio/players/xspf_extended.swf?playlist_url=http://site.info/node/16/xspf">
</object>

Having to change that all the time seems wrong. Is there an easier way to do this?
