I use a Google Gadget to insert within Google Sites, a Flash Playlist
URL of the gadget :
Using a Playlist with XSPF Web Music Player
XSPF Web Music Player is a flash-based web application that uses xspf playlist format to play mp3 songs. XSPF is the XML Shareable Playlist Format. I use the Extended version.
File parameter
Download the xspf player from musicplayer.sourceforge. Use the URL of the player and the URL of the xspf playlist separated by a question mark. You can add autoload=true to play song as soon the page is loaded.
Important : Do not use directly the URL of the xspf playlist. Enter the URL in the address bar of a browser, and copy the URL which is displayed. We get an URL like this :
http://nnnnnnnnnnnn-a-nnnnnnnnnnn-s-sites.googlegroups.com/site/YOURSITE/files/YOURXSPFPLAYLIST.xspf
We can then construct the File parameter of the Gadget :
http://YOURSITE/xspf_player.swf?playlist_url=http://nnnnnnnnnnnn-a-nnnnnnnnnnn-s-sites.googlegroups.com/site/YOURSITE/files/YOURXSPFPLAYLIST.xspf &autoload=true
My Playlist : xspf_playlist.xspf
