Updates Media Pop-up Player (Page 1 of 3)

Can you post a link please so we can see the players you have made?

Thanks.

I don't want to be a party pooper, but unless the rules have changed recently, we aren't allowed to use pop up players. Your player must load in a full screen from the Loudcity site.

all my players do pop up from the loudcity domain
my pro page "my index.html"of my website it at loudcity

since when? I was told by Justin this was ok,
as long as the stream was launched from the Loudcity Domain

As far as I know it's been that way for over a year. The url of your launch page must show. You best put in a ticket and ask them about it. It use to be you didn't have to, but last I heard you did.

Many of us used a pop up window prior to that policy change. It was neat and allowed the listeners to close the page and keep open the small pop up window. If the policy has changed again, I certainly want to know.

I'm glad this conversation came up. I found the following post, also by John, at a later date, which might mean a change. http://forum.loudcity.net/viewtopic.php?id=753

Don i read that link you posted and that is what i do i use my pro page as my landing for my website.

I basically use a php script to redirect my web visitors to my pro page so they are actually on my pro page but looks just like my index page
www.hoperadio.us/index.php redirects them to http://community.loudcity.com/stations/ … index.html

and it you look at a hidden page www.hoperadio.us/index.html they look the same

hope, we all do that, but it's still about the popup player that comes off your launch page showing the url that your launch page is showing.

Hum hope i did not open a can of worms that didn't need to be opened, I justwanted to help others with a kewl little fun thing for the listeners

I am working on a version that has the volume control on it
and it should be ready this week if all goes as planned ...........

so does anybody like my little work? if not tell me lol

You do some nice work.

I'm not speaking for LC of course, but I think there is a distinction between people who used the LC popup player from their own site (even with LC's URL in the address bar) vs. what seems to be OK -- launching a popup player from a pro LC page.

I think we can launch whatever we want from a pro page, as long as the actual launch files are on the LC domain and it's clear that the stream is being launched from the LC domain (i.e., our "loudcity.community.com....etc." pages).

As long as it is clear that the player is being launched from the LC domain, I think a pro webcaster can launch whatever popup player they want. I think the problem was that people were launching popup players from their own web pages, outside of the LC domain.

That's the way I understand it.

I think this is the key to understanding John's 2 posts:

The difference IMO is "popup... to direct... to LC" vs. "link that points to your launch page at LC."
