    Are you seeing that somewhere in the player?

    I don't

    What browser are you using?

    I can't see that (Firefox/Windows). Looks fine and working great.

    Pretty cool! If I click play for the current displayed song and then forward to the next song and decide to play it instead, both songs play on top of each other, can't see where I can stop or pause the first song. Might be a FireFox issue. I am on Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.8.1.11) Gecko/20071127 Firefox/2.0.0.11

    If I pause the first playing song and forward to the second one things are fine. But if I am playing song #1 and I fwd to a song #2 or #3, etc. and hit play while song #1 is still playing, song #1 keeps playing as does the new song...

    Thanks everyone!

    Because of the way I had to load the actual tumblr player at the bottom, rather than loading the MP3s into my own player, i don't have as much control over stopping and starting the music, but I'll hack around some more :)

    About music, but not related to your post, thought you might find this article that appeared in the Guardian interesting:

    Schooled in Cool: A new class of smart, literate British bands is challenging the lumbering louts of indie rock.

    OK Big news....you may already know.

    Last.fm is now offering free streams of full length songs...and eventually opening to a suscriptions service. Not sure if this means much toward your rhapsody penchant. But I for one welcome our new ability to preview artists and album, last.fm overlords.

    I know you'll blog about this anyway...but figured maybe I could scoop you on it.

    I am thrilled with this news

    And I will blog about it

    Hey Fred:

    Have you seen the movie Once?

    If you haven't, please please please do so. Given my understanding of your musical tastes and artistic interests, you will most definitely appreciate the beauty, depth and awesomeness of this great flick.

    I put it on my netflix queue

    Should be watching it soon
  • daryn · 1 year ago
    The player is narrower now (175px) and if you check the "Auto Play" box it'll cycle through the songs.

    I also changed to streaming the MP3s directly from tumblr rather than using their player, so we have a little more control over playback, pause, etc..

    Anyone who has suggestions, feel free to email me at daryn_at_daryn.net.

    I could only get the first song to play. This sucks, I was starting to jam!
