serveMP3

serveMP3 -- Feeds the mp3 through PHP

Usage

wimpy.php?action=serveMP3&theFile=http://www/path/to/file.mp3

Parameters

theFile -- a URL to a file

Description

Streams binary mp3 file to wimpy.swf by passing the file through PHP. This prevents mp3 files from being cached on end users computer.

To activate this option, include serveMP3=yes when loading wimpy.swf.
Example:
wimpy.swf?otherParams=blah&serveMP3=yes

Once this option is activated, wimpy.swf will make all requests to play a file as:

wimpyApp.php?action=serveMP3&theFile=http://www/path/to/file.mp3

NOTE: This option is not available when running wimpy off of an XML playlist. since this feature requires special back-end server code (such as PHP or ASP) to handle this kind of functionality.
