Hi I am trying to implement some flash files (video and image), and therefore I need some xml output similar to this: Code:<playlist version="1" xmlns="http://xspf.org/ns/0/"> <trackList> <track> <title>Image title1</title> <creator>Kristjan</creator> <location>image1.jpg</location> <info>http://www.mysite.com</info> </track> <track> <title>Image title2</title> <creator>Kristjan</creator> <location>image2.jpg</location> <info>http://www.mysite.com</info> </track> </trackList> </playlist> I was planning on using the Media Picker to choose a folder containing the images. Is this an easy task and if so how is it done? / Kristjan

I would look into CPALM's flash package... http://www.cpalm.dk/blog/2006/06/04/flash-and-umbraco-package.aspx

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE xsl:Stylesheet [ <!ENTITY nbsp " "> ]>
<xsl:stylesheet
version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:msxml="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt"
xmlns:umbraco.library="urn:umbraco.library"
exclude-result-prefixes="msxml umbraco.library">
<xsl:output method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="no" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:param name="currentPage"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:variable name="nodeID" select="umbraco.library:RequestQueryString('nodeID')" />
<xsl:variable name="folder" select="umbraco.library:GetMedia($nodeID)"/>
<playlist version="1" xmlns="http://xspf.org/ns/0/">
<trackList>
<xsl:for-each select="$folder/node">
<track>
<title><xsl:value-of select="./@nodeName"></title>
<creator><xsl:value-of select="./@creator"></creator>
<location><xsl:value-of select="./data [@alias = 'umbracoFile']"></location>
<info><xsl:value-of select="./data [@alias = 'yourVarName']"></info>
</track>
</xsl:for-each>
</tracklist>
</playlist>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
this should work for you...
you have to call it with the folderId als queryString...

OK I am a little lost here.. 1. I created a Documenttype called “xspf”
2. In there I made Tab called “xspf_list”
3. Added Media Picker to the tab
4. Created a xslt and a macro called “xpsf”
And used the following code:Code:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE xsl:Stylesheet [ <!ENTITY nbsp " "> ]> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:msxml="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt" xmlns:umbraco.library="urn:umbraco.library" exclude-result-prefixes="msxml umbraco.library"> <xsl:output method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="no" indent="yes"/> <xsl:param name="currentPage"/> <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:variable name="nodeID" select="umbraco.library:RequestQueryString('nodeID')" /> <xsl:variable name="folder" select="umbraco.library:GetMedia($nodeID)"/> <playlist version="1" xmlns="http://xspf.org/ns/0/"> <trackList> <xsl:for-each select="$folder/node"> <track> <title><xsl:value-of select="./@nodeName"></title> <creator><xsl:value-of select="./@creator"></creator> <location><xsl:value-of select="./data [@alias = 'umbracoFile']"></location> <info><xsl:value-of select="./data [@alias = 'xspf_list']"></info> </track> </xsl:for-each> </tracklist> </playlist> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> 5. In the template “xspf” I used the following code:Code:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <playlist version="1" xmlns="http://xspf.org/ns/0/"> <trackList> <?UMBRACO_MACRO macroAlias="xspf" ></?UMBRACO_MACRO> </trackList> </playlist> But when I try to view the page using a link that’s looks like this www.mysite.com/xspf.aspx?folderId=1150 all I get is this Code:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <playlist version="1" xmlns="http://xspf.org/ns/0/"> <trackList>Error reading XSLT file: \xslt\xspf.xslt</trackList> </playlist> What am I doing wrong? :hmm: Regards, Kristjan

If you add ?umbdebugshowtrace=true to your url, you can see a trace in the bottom. Scroll down until you see some red text with the xslt error message. That'll probably help you getting on the right track. If not then post it here :-) Cheers, Niels - the linebreaker
Jeeeez, did I really start this :-)

I don't know how much of the code we need, but here is the red part:Code:
umbracoMacro
Error loading XSLT xspf.xslt
The 'xsl:value-of' start tag on line 24 does not match the end tag of 'title'. Line 24, position 61.
at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.Throw(Exception e)

at umbraco.macro.loadMacroXSLT(macro macro, Hashtable attributes, page umbPage) in C:\data\umbraco\umbraco2.1\umbraco\presentation\macro.cs:line 500
This is the same error I get, when I try to save the XSLT file. Sorry but this doesn’t get me any closer to the path :roll: / Kristjan

You need to close your value-of elements: Code: <title><xsl:value-of select="./@nodeName"></title> should be Code: <title><xsl:value-of select="./@nodeName" /></title> Notice the end "/" before the ">" in the xsl:value-of element. Go through the rest and it should work :-)

Thanks Niels, that solved the problem, but this just resulted in another problem. System.Xml.Xsl.XsltException: XSLT function 'GetMedia()' has the wrong number of arguments. In this code Code:<xsl:variable name="folder" select="umbraco.library:GetMedia($nodeID)"/> So in my hunt for a solution, I looked at the following post http://forum.umbraco.org/6229#post-6229 And using the code from this post, I get a very clean listing Code:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <playlist version="1" xmlns="http://xspf.org/ns/0/"> <trackList> </trackList> </playlist> Now the pages show with out any errors, unfortunally without any track listing as well. But this might just be me being stupid and not knowing what the difference between the Allias’ used in the code. Code:
[@nodeTypeAlias = 'wwMusic']
[@alias = 'relDate']
[@alias ='audioFile']
I tried to use a common name for all my alias – xspf – but this still doesn’t help me much. So am I totally lost here or is there a simple way back to the right path ;) Regards, Kristjan

first, i am sorry for my mistake with not closing the tags. i have just written it down in an editor in 5 minutes ;] so no error check... the media needs 2 arguments: Code:<xsl:variable name="folder" select="umbraco.library:GetMedia($nodeID, 'true')"/> now it should work, the other problem i don't really get... sorry...

Thanks Garrit It works… :w00t: If anyone else wants to try it out, I ended up using this code: Code:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE xsl:Stylesheet [ <!ENTITY nbsp " "> ]> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:msxml="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt" xmlns:umbraco.library="urn:umbraco.library" exclude-result-prefixes="msxml umbraco.library"> <xsl:output method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="no" indent="yes"/> <xsl:param name="currentPage"/> <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:variable name="nodeID" select="umbraco.library:RequestQueryString('nodeID')" /> <xsl:variable name="folder" select="umbraco.library:GetMedia($nodeID, 'true')"/> <playlist version="1" xmlns="http://xspf.org/ns/0/"> <trackList> <xsl:for-each select="$folder/node"> <track> <title><xsl:value-of select="./@nodeName" /></title> <creator><xsl:value-of select="./@creator" /></creator> <location><xsl:value-of select="./data [@alias = 'umbracoFile']" /></location> <info><xsl:value-of select="./data [@alias = 'xspf']" /></info> </track> </xsl:for-each> </trackList> </playlist> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> This code will ( combined with -> www.mysite/xspf.aspx?nodeID=the_folder_ID ) make a listing of the content I a media folder. This can be user with players using xspf playlists. I am using it with a Flash Player created by Jeroen Wijering - http://www.jeroenwijering.com/I used this code for the Flash player Template: Code:<p id="player"></p> <script type="text/javascript"> var FO = { movie:"/media/imagerotator.swf",width:"600",height:"600",majorversion:"7",build:"0",bgcolor:"#000000", flashvars:"file=/xspf.aspx?nodeId=<?UMBRACO_GETITEM field="Media_Folder"/>&shownavigation=true&linkfromdisplay=false&transition=random" }; UFO.create(FO, "player"); </script> Hope this makes any sense :) Regards, Kristján

pretty cool stuff.
However I have some problems.
I managed to get the xml xslt running but I am having problems running the media player.
the video does not start, I only get a loading animation. stripes in a circle.
I dont't think it has anything to do with your code, I even tried to upload the flvplayer.html to my server and I get the same. Any Ideas?
Can I also ask you where you are from Kristján?
Regards

Well I think the error you are getting, is because the path to the images is wrong – did you name your Media Picker “Media_Folder” like I did in the Dokumenttype?
Have you tried to look at the xml xslt with the querystring, in a browser to see if the path is right?
And well you guessed right, a part of me is from the dark north :) – but I am living in Denmark

Well my path was right, but you got me thinking, and I found out that IIS 6 (windows2003) does not support flv out of the box. I had to configure mime types, instructions where on the adobe site http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_19439 and it works. so now everything works as a charm :)
