Media module integration

subscribing, very interested in seeing this work

Playlist jPlayer instance. But when I hit the Update button the format is still Single jPlayer instance.
Yes , I think it's bug.....
Same problem ,can not play playlist.

Sorry Mistake.

I get the same issue. The way I resolved it was by doing things at the template layer for the field. So I'm curious to see what might be a good way to go about working this out.

the nid -> fid code change lets the module function, however the field-display formatter (jplayer) doesn't show up as an option on the manage display page of the content type configuration screen.

You can do this through the various round-about steps you have taken, but it does seem to break down at the rendering of the multiple-valued field in a playlist. I think because we are selecting "file style: large" or whatever, it is treating each value separately rather than aggregating or building the array at the field-level.

Is there any way to enable the jplayer-* field formatters for the "Multimedia Asset" field type (rather than just for the filefield type)? Would that solve the problem?

Updating to Media 7.x-2.x. and using the "file field" instead of the "media field" allows this module to work out of the box! The solution below works for "media field" types

Okay! So I have a solution for using the media module (with "Media Field") and JPlayer--so far I've tested it with Audio files and it is working quite nicely!
Using Media 7.x-2.x-dev, though still using a "media" field (multimedia asset widget) which is set to accept unlimited values.

Here is what you do:

• Because this is not part of the module, you'll need to install another one (Custom Formatters) that allows you to write custom field formatters (without writing a custom module) and is very very slick.
• Add a new custom formatter, and use this code in php format (As is, without the php tags):
  

  // fieldname is added to the jplayer-themed div dynamically so that we can have multiple players (from multiple media fields) on a page
  $fieldname = $variables['#field']['field_name'];
  
  foreach (element_children($variables['#items']) as $delta) {
    $item = $variables['#items'][$delta];
    // $newitem reformats $item into the structure that the JPlayer module is looking for
    $newitem[$delta]['file'] = $item['file']->filename;
    $newitem[$delta]['url'] = $item['file']->uri;
    $newitem[$delta]['type'] = $item['file']->type;
    // clean up html spaces in the filename for the display in the playlist
    $newitem[$delta]['label'] = str_replace("%20"," ",$item['file']->filename);
    // determine file extension
      $file_ext = $item['file']->filename;
      $file_ext = substr($file_ext, strrpos($file_ext, ".")+1);
    $newitem[$delta]['ext'] = $file_ext;
   }
  
   // Settings for the JPlayer instance
   // should really be dynamically put into the module file--but this depends on allowing for the creation of new formatter names (which I don't think is currently an option)
     $display['settings']['mode'] = 'playlist';
     $display['settings']['autoplay'] = '1';
     $display['settings']['solution'] = 'html, flash';
     $display['settings']['preload'] = 'auto';
     $display['settings']['volume'] = '80';
     $display['settings']['muted'] = FALSE;
     $display['settings']['repeat'] = 'none';
     $display['settings']['backgroundColor'] = '';
  
    // theme function to display player + playlist
    $output = theme('jplayer', array('player_id' => 'jplayer-'. $fieldname . '-' . str_replace('_', '-', $instance['field_name']), 'items' => $newitem, 'settings' => $display['settings']));
    return $output; 
  

• Go to the manage display page of your media-field-containing content type, and under the field format dropdown, select the new one you just created, save, then view a node!

There may be an easier way to do this, but I couldn't find one--and there are likely things that could be done better in the above code, but it works for now. I've attached a screenshot of the working formatter (it looks like the regular non-multivalued playlist).

Also, it occurs to me that you could do a count to see whether there are multiple audio files or not in order to dynamically switch between "single" and "playlist" (even though I know this isn't clean/good coding):

 if($count > 1){
  $mode = 'playlist';
} else {
  $mode = 'single';
}
 $display['settings']['mode'] = $mode;

I hope this helps someone else until the module gets updated/patched!

small tweak to the "out of the box" statement... I had 2 fields, an audio_file (using jplayer) and a video_file (using something else because of youtube/remote oembed files) on the same content type.

When viewing a node created this way, this module seems to look at all available media "files" and consider them fair game for rendering or at least processing. I had errors related to missing player_type and filename and still had a problem with the $object->fid (or nid) in line 96. Likely because the videos were remote URLs without file extensions or "filenames" in the strict sense.

So... in jplayer.theme.inc:
- I added to line 108:
$player_type = '';

- and to line 127 (just before setting $item['label'] = $item['filename']):
$item['label'] = '';

- and for good measure, added a line after 128 to clean up some html spaces issues I was having in filenames:
$item['label'] = str_replace("%20"," ",$item['label']);

I also ended up changing the jplayer.module's player div's id to (line 96):
'player_id' => 'jplayer-' . $instance['field_name'] . '-' . str_replace('_', '-', $instance['field_name']),

where $instance['field_name'] replaced $object->nid or $object->fid

I realize that "hacking" a module's files is not a good idea, these are some changes that may not be "correct" but they do work for me so far (especially since it has been 6 months since the last update).

I got Media: Soundcloud 7.x-2.x 'tracks' to work with jPlayer. (and it's awesome!)

I added a bit more then $wrapper = file_stream_wrapper_get_instance_by_uri($item['uri']); but that is where the magic happens. I'll upload everything to my github, for everybody to test. At this moment it's not yet a real patch or even close to it, but it might help a bit. You need to register for an api key (app) at Soundcloud before it will work and set the display to the jPlayer and disable the normal rendering.

I am looking for an audio player for the media 7-2.x module. I don't find an issue that is from last months, so I ask here for support. Thanks for any tip :)
