How to embed your Soundcloud player in Hijack

[Powdermonkey / [sic]]

Had quite a few PM's on how to do this so, rather than repeating myself over and over, here's the definitive guide  

First of all, get the embed code from Soundcloud. It can be found by clicking on the Share tag and looks like this:

<object height="81" width="100%"> <param name="movie" value="http://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=http%3A%2F%2Fsoundcloud.com%2Fsic_tracks%2Ftaster-what-choice-do-i-have&"></param> <param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param> <embed allowscriptaccess="always" height="81" src="http://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=http%3A%2F%2Fsoundcloud.com%2Fsic_tracks%2Ftaster-what-choice-do-i-have&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="100%"></embed> </object>  <span><a href="http://soundcloud.com/sic_tracks/taster-what-choice-do-i-have">[sic] 'Chomp'</a>  by  <a href="http://soundcloud.com/sic_tracks">[sic]</a></span>

You need the bit that I've enlarged.  

Copy it and then put flash tags around it:

Code:

[flash=800,82]http://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=http%3A%2F%2Fsoundcloud.com%2Fsic_tracks%2Ftaster-what-choice-do-i-have[/flash]

Make sure you change the flash played size to 800,82. If you're using a Set, try changing the size to 800,160.\

And then it should look like this!

<a href="http://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=http%3A%2F%2Fsoundcloud.com%2Fsic_tracks%2Ftaster-what-choice-do-i-have" target="_blank">http://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=http%3A%2F%2Fsoundcloud.com%2Fsic_tracks%2Ftaster-what-choice-do-i-have</a>

Maybe this could be made stickytastic as this is a well requested feature for message boards.

Seeing as it's music related and all

[Jack Bastard]

I love you Powdermonkey.

I love you Powdermonkey.

 

And so you should.

I still think this should be a sticky as there are more and more producers using and embedding Soundcloud.

Music related sticky?

Come onnnn...

How do you embed if you want to do it with added picture?

How do you embed if you want to do it with added picture?

Do you mean the image associated with the track?

It doesn't show until you click on the 'info' button (at least I don't think it does!)

Yeah the artwork you upload, you can have that as the player ... soundcloud gives you this code for it ... but I cant make it work on Hijack

Any ideas how?

Cheers Powdermonkey followed your guide when putting up some tracks via soundcloud. 

Do you or anyone else here have a clue how to insert jpeg images i.e artwork into a pm?
