Add Music to Myspace - Comments Page 2

Worked great, THANKS!

I've followed all the steps and my home profile page confirms I have a song added. But, no player shows and no song plays. I've asked a bunch of people but no solutions. Can ya help?

EDITOR'S NOTE: Do you have anything hidden on your page? Some of those "hiding hacks" end up hiding things you want to see.

Ok, profile: myspace.com/serpentine5

Issue: Followed the directions above, and have an MP3 uploaded to a server... (server needs log in info to access, but I am able to add the login info to the url of where the MP3 is). I add the following to my profile (in any area):

[code]

[/code]

but after I hit save, it changes it to look like this:

[code]

[/code]

So I am left with the idea that MySpace is killing everything added...? It does not show on my profile, and does not play. Any ideas?

EDITOR'S NOTE: First, I don't see anything being lost... the format that Myspace changes your code into still contains the same info, in a different way. Second, you're not really posting your login and password in a public place, are you?

Excellent. I am glad that I was writing the code right for this, that its just myspace screwing it up for firefox users. Go figure. It was driving me nuts constantly combing the code but it would never play on firefox. Sucks but at least now I can stop working on it lol.

I have embedded it fine,and it works well using IE.

although just to ask, is there another code that would make it visable and playable to firefox users? Or is myspace just annoying and it will never work for them.

EDITOR'S NOTE: Yes, Myspace is annoying.

Bob, nice work! you SOOOOOOOOOO Rock sometimes bro!!! hope all is groovy... peace ,am!

Can you help me find out what is wrong with my wav file on myspace page? Thank you. Karen

http://www.www.fileden.com/files/2007/2/11/7609061/SomewhereOverTheRainbow.wav

EDITOR'S NOTE: The file does not exist at that URL, even when I removed the extra "www" from the address.

I have background music on my page and I want to add a simple wav file (for others to click on and hear) my problem is that both the background music and the clip play at the same time when the site is loaded, and it sounds funny. Is there a way to keep the clip from playing until the background music is finished? I'm not sure if there is a way in the code to do this.

EDITOR'S NOTE: If they are both clips added with the HTML-code-pasted-to-profile method (see above) then I think not. At least not until Myspace stops messing with the codes and starts honoring the AUTOPLAY parameter.

ok for some of you who are having troubles...go here:

http://musicplayer.sourceforge.net/#documentation

and for more detailed info:

You install a couple of files onto another server...1)an mp3 or two or three. 2)the small flash program. 3)the playlist.

I want add my simple music piece to my myspace page. Can you help me?

EDITOR'S NOTE: Yup. See the article above. All will be revealed.

I have a song & i wish to put it in myspace(profile), but i cant, because i couldnt find the song in the internet, I have it in my PC...any suggestions?

EDITOR'S NOTE: Look for the link to the "Add Hard Drive Song to Myspace" article on this page.

if you upload an mp3, wav, or midi, etc. to a free host on the internet you can use the adress for the music file from the internet on your embed code. a good place for uplading about 4-10 songs depending on size is http://www.angelfire.com/

you will use the uploaded adress as you "src" and be careful not to use too much bandwidth. :)

i want to find out what song this is http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=61904567

but shes hidden her music player. is there anyway of finding it out?

EDITOR'S NOTE: I extracted the "hidden" code and found the song URL: "http://lads.myspace.com/mini/mini.swf?b=MzgxNjM4OTE=&o=NDc1ODExNQ==&d=MTE3Mjk4NTA5OA==&i=MA==&a=VHJ1ZQ==" Might be called "Way to Ruin the..."

Hi. Very informative site! My question is: Can you copy and paste the code for a music player like the ones you see on a band profile (with multiple songs) to an individual (personal) profile? Are there plans for Myspace to allow non-band profiles to have more than one music file available in their music players? Thanks for your help.

EDITOR'S NOTE: I tried and it just gives the dreaded double-dot. I don't have any inside info on this, sorry.

I have been trying my best but can't figure this out. How can I insert hidden comments within the code on my space like a comment within an html doc

What happens when you try: <!-- hidden text -->

Is there a way to add a sound clip to a comment you are leaving for someone?

EDITOR'S NOTE: It should work the same as adding music to the profile section.

How do you add a song to myspace if it is on your hardrive? Note: Please be specific.

hi , i am not a "myspace" blogger but i have a blog on another Blog site , and was wondering if you have an idea how to post a single music to an article that can be clickable but the reader , don't want to make it start as they check my page...

thank you.

EDITOR'S NOTE: You should be able to use the same instructions as above, to paste the EMBED code into your page.

Hi Bob, I've created a blog on myspace a few months ago and wanted to add a mp3 sound on a blog posting (I would rather no to put a link). I want to use the EMBED function. I've tried every html codes possible for that since yesterday (the one you're giving but the ones generated by http://boomp3.com and PimMP3.com). Of course I check the View source is ticked. Every time the same thing happens; which means nothing, it does not work at all. I just have the links for boomp3.com and PimpMP3.com that are remaining. I don't know how you have done to insert a sound in your blog posting...

EDITOR'S NOTE: Myspace is messing with the codes, See http://askbobrankin.com/myspace_music_problems.html

How can I get multiple clips to play out of ONE player?

EDITOR'S NOTE: You need a Band Profile for that.
