Allow Onsite Streaming on Paid Songs

Using Jamroom

A lot of our artists offer full song streaming of their tracks on bandcamp or their own personal websites. So I do not think that they would mind to do the same with us.

Is there a way to enable full streaming on 'paid songs'?
If there is, is there a way to choose this on a song by song basis since some artists might object?

Thanks,

How about if player was replaced with a SWF Flash player, would that circumvent the issue?

You mean through the site or via some pirating software?

Convert mp3 to 128 kbps for onsite player but allow original 256 kbps for download and sale

Using Jamroom

Goal is to upload a 256 kbps MP3 version of the songs. It would then be converted an 128 kbps MP3 version to be streamed on the onsite player (either full song for non paid, or sample for paid), this way it would save upload time and bandwidth for onsite streams. Yet if a person wanted to download it (a non-paid song via download button, or a paid song via the foxycart checkout) he would be able to retrieve the original uploaded 256 kbps MP3 version so he can have a better quality track.

In Audio Support > Global Settings > Conversion format MP3 is selected
In Audio Support > Quota Settings > Convert To MP3 is selected at 128.

I believe that if the original upload is an MP4, WAV, WMA etc. then you get original file during download. However if original file was a 256 MP3 then by download you get the converted 128 version.

When it comes to paid songs I have not been able to test since foxycart is still in sandbox for us. Although it does say the full, correct file size on the pages purchase tag; (Purchase: Mp3, 1.2MB, 00:00:38).

Thanks for the help.

Is there a way to allow onsite streaming for songs that have a price. Currently it creates a sample file giving you a max 120 seconds length.

It would be good if there was an option to allow onsite streaming even on paid songs so that can attract traffic that might eventually buy songs.

It would also be good if there was a way to allow this on a song by song or artist by artist basis.

Thanks for the help.

Adding Lyrics and Song Notes to Song Pages

Sorry my mistake, had an extra piece of code in there that was ruining it.
Removed it and now it is working fine.

Thanks,

it is not showing up on front end. I just made up an 'id' (95) since I was not sure where to get that data from, if that makes a difference.

Thanks for the help.

Adding Lyrics and Song Notes to Song Pages

Design and Skin Customization

Using the 'form designer' on the 'song upload' page, I added two new fields; 'lyrics' and 'song notes'. After this I was able to add this data to all the songs.

Question is how to get this data to show up on the template in the front end of the site on the song page?

Thanks for the help.
