when upload audio in imagefolder-shows mp3 logo and not pic

I don ´t know where the problem is. sorry. Maybe somebody asked this here already.

I made a new Album and added pics, text and so on. Everything fine.
... until I added audio files.

First I gave an intro to the start-folder. Works fine.
Then I added 3 audio files to a folder with pics and some others to annother folder.
The audiofiles are in the root of the specific albums and now I see as a preview image the audio file because the folder itself has subfolders and no pics in the root.
I tried to upload as well a pic in the root and define it as the preview image. Didn ´t work. Still see the mp3 logos.
As well... :shock: I could not change again the description of the mainfolder as before. Doesn ´t save. Even the chmod is 777. Cleared cache ....

What happened?

Do you need a link to the page?
I would like to keep it private until the page is on air - so a private message would contain the link and for PAIN or KARL a login.
Thanks folks.... I would like to bring it online tomorrow Thuesday.

link 2 page

Sorry, sorry, help is coming.

This is a bug in flash, it loads preview image even when there is none.
To fix it on your site add previewimage=" " (space) to http://www.fotokarg.at/content/Fotoalbum/folderdata.xml

so it will look like:

<folder fileCount="3" maxThumbWidth="64" maxThumbHeight="64" previewimage=" " />

thanks pain

ok - works now - thanks

but why can ´t I rename this folder and all the files in it not anymore? Was like this before.
With other folders it works and I did with this folder too, but for any reason it changed and I cannot rename them anymore - it falls back to origin file name.
chmod Problem?

seems like..

I guess if I add and mp3 file to a folder, I cannot change menu items after - correct?

I believe this is related to ftp uploaded folderdata.xml, php can't write to it, you have to chmod 666 or 777 this file.

still troubles

I changed this xml a couple of times but still shows thumbnails from mp3.
Deleted thumbnails on ftp, but system creates it again when playing music.
I got wrong filecount as well - it seems it counts the audio files.

Even if I add your recommended previewimage=" "
it comes back again and again....ufff :x

I believe you have misinterpret my instructions:

http://www.fotokarg.at/content/Fotoalbum/folderdata.xml

it should say previewimage=" " somewhere.

I think the problems you encounted been caused by browser cache, you need to clear it because flash loads files separately and just refreshing page won't help.

back again

thanks pain for the tipps, but the cache is not the problem.

Now the page is officially online under
http://www.fotokarg.at

I still have the problem with the mp3 logo.
I made an voice-over intro on startpage, so I do not want this sound in the albums afterwards.
Maybe the next update to 2.1 can solve this.

Any plans when 2.1 is coming up? You guys said in April.

I can only repeat myself, you have to edit folderdata.xml manually here:
http://www.fotokarg.at/content/Fotoalbum/folderdata.xml

If you want - give me your ftp login and i'll fix it for you.

2.1 is coming soon, but it might have less functionality than we originally thought we could put it.
