Marcato 2,143 December 19, 2012 Share December 19, 2012 Hey all, I just remembered something about being able to add soundcloud content to forum posts with [media] tags. Now I think something that would be really useful would be to make a BBCode or add to the [media] functionality so that you can embed Pony.FM tracks into your posts! I found soundclouds compatibility with the forums a really useful feature, so I thought it would be nice to have a similar thing with Pony.FM. Thoughts? ~Relax and enJOY life.

Wolfy 20 December 19, 2012 Share December 19, 2012 That'd be pretty awesome since pony.fm is already connected through the board here. It'd be like an official localization dealeo, so I'd be down for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CloudFyre 848 December 19, 2012 Share December 19, 2012 (edited) This feature is already doable, apparently. Feld0 showed off a screenshot (via Skype) that featured an embeddable media player that can be used here and in other parts of the web. I'll see if I can find it...

Founder Twilight Sparkle ✨ 8,529 December 19, 2012 Founder Share December 19, 2012 Embeddable Pony.fm players are absolutely going to happen. Just haven't had time to implement it yet. This feature is already doable, apparently. Feld0 showed off a screenshot (via Skype) that featured an embeddable media player that can be used here and in other parts of the web. I'll see if I can find it... That was not actually an embeddable player, but I'm glad that it fooled you. This is what you're referring to: The purpose of this "badge" is to embed a clickable image into sites that do not support the embeddable player, with the hope being that the image looks enough like a player that people will try to click it (because it's not actually a player, though, it will open up the track's page on Pony.fm, where it will be playable). 3 Avatar credit: robinrain8 Signature credit: Kyoshi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's terribly deceptive of you....XD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
