Haven't seen any in the wild yet. So far none have been specifically created and added to the marketplace.

No reason it couldn't be done, just hasn't been yet.

Ive played around with it but it would require modifying the jrAudio module to work with the new player so i havent done anything yet.

Im sure there will be a way in the future to bring in a new media players with out having to modify a jrModule to get it done.

There's no need to modify any module - the Players in Jamroom 5 are super flexible and are all template and CSS based - all you need to do is pass in the template name - i.e.:

{jrCore_media_player type="jrAudio_player_dark" module="jrAudio" field="audio_file" item=$item}

So in this case, "jrAudio_player_dark" lines up with jrAudio/templates/jrAudio_player_dark.tpl, and it has been registered by the jrAudio module to be a media player skin (from jrAudio/include.php in the init() function):

jrCore_register_module_feature('jrCore','media_player','jrAudio','jrAudio_player_dark','audio');

This tells the Core "I have a media player skin called "jrAudio_player_dark" that can be used to play audio, and it is part of the jrAudio module".

So you could easily create a custom module that registers as many different player skins as you want. You can use "audio", "video" or "mixed" for the type in the register call (with mixed being a player that can play both).

Hope this helps!

* But wont that only work if its using JPlayer?

I was trying to bring in another player itself so i could take advantage of some really cool features.

Yes - our core player is jPlayer, but that doesn't mean your template has to be jplayer - you can call or bring in whatever you want in your template.

Hope this helps!

Talk to @mixposure. He's assembling sponsors for a new flash player.
