Re: need to refresh jPlayer

[Mark Panaghiston]

Is this a trick question?

Take a look at the stream player demo:

Hi,

We are using jPlayer to stream from shoutcast there but there is a noticeable delay which we know is down to the buffering on the shoutcast server. The problem its causing is in updating the jPlayer controls i.e. when the user hits stop then start again the song continue to play even when we have changed the source song. The only way we have found around it is to refresh the page (F5). what we need is some way to simulate this refresh inside the Stop button click so that when the user hits play again they get the latest song content that is being streamed. We'ver tried placing various calls inside an onclick in the jPlayers 'stop' button like window.refresh(), document.refresh() but obviously HTML5 does use these methods.

Any ideas if there is a .refresh method or similar?  - We're using HTML5, in Firefox and jPlayer2.3.0 and jQuery Mobile.

thanks in advance ...

I use the load method.

  var Player = document.getElementById('player'); 

Player.src = songtitle;

Player.load();

Player.play();

That is pure HTML and JavaScript Moose.

The demo given uses clear media. On the pause event, it sets SRC to "about:blank" and then does the media.load().
Then when you play it again, an error occurs, which causes the setMedia command which sets the SRC back to the url and does the load() and play().
I explain that in the demo text.
