• I updated the Soundcloud Is Gold player today. Afterwards I noticed that in place of the track name in my mini player, I’m getting the message “Please visit soundcloud.com to listen to this content.”

    I didn’t look at my home page just before performing the upgrade, so I’m not sure if it’s related to that or if this was already occurring. I do know the place was working properly at least within the last one to two weeks.

    Thanks for any help you can give!

    Tracks haven’t changed privacy settings in my case. If you’re right, and Soundcloud made an API change that only allows HTML5 players, it that something you can accommodate on your end? I’m happy to donate (glad it see it was a momentary glitch), but I’d like to donate toward the use of working plugin. Could you give us a number that has to be raised to cover your time?

    Thanks again,
    Adam

    @adam,

    I don’t have the time to do this and money isn’t the issue. Maybe try other plugins.

    Hi there! I am getting the same problem: Please visit soundcloud.com to listen to this content. I think its a player problem. The plugin is active in checkbox html5.
    Maybe changing swf player to html5? Its possible?

    In my site the player code was work before:
    <div class=”audioPlugin”>
    <?php if(print_field($data,”sound_link”)){ ?>

    <object height=”100%” width=”100%”>
    <param name=”movie”
    value=”https://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=&lt;?=print_field($data,’sound_link’) ?>&auto_play=false&player_type=artwork&color=000000″></param>
    <param name=”allowscriptaccess” value=”always”></param>
    <embed allowscriptaccess=”always” height=”100%” src=”https://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=&lt;?=print_field($data,’sound_link’) ?>&auto_play=false&player_type=artwork&color=000000″ type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” width=”100%”></embed>
    </object>

    I’m trying change the code but do’n’t work.

    Any idea?

    regards Ana

    Just in case anyone wanted a definitive answer, Soundcloud botched the upgrade process by not letting literally anyone know about switching from Flash to HTML5.

    Here is the help forum on the subject.

    Nice one SoundCloud!

    Thanks Bravo313!

    Another example of poor communication from Soundcloud.

    I will have to remove flash player from the next version.

    In the meantime, using the Html5 player only should work

    Might need to check that one out as they have have also changed the way you call the API to get the HTML5 player

    Hey @realtm,

    Have you found any time to work on this? I understand what it means to donate your time, and I (and I’m sure many!) appreciate it. If money isn’t the issue, is there anything we can do to help make an update easier for you?

    My client loves your mini-player, and I’ve looked high and low for another SC plugin that gives the same display. Apparently, it’s not out there. We’re using 5 different SC iFrame embeds to accomplish what your plugin does much more elegantly—and while it amounts to annoying that we’re using so much space, the pressing issue is the enormous amount of JS slowing load speeds.

    Thanks again,
    Adam

    i’m also trying to use this plugin with similar issues … i have it set to html5 but no luck … all i get is “please visit soundcloud to listen to this content”

    bah!!!

    would be happy to chip in to the plugin author to help get this fixed
