I purchased MC today and have been trying to integrate into a site. The installation went fairly smoothly and I set up all of the initial parameters and folder structure. I set up a couple of artists and albums, then uploaded album art and a couple of songs for each album. Here are some of the problems I am having:

1. Thumbnails are not generated...the album art is loaded into images/album_extra/album_name folder but no thumbnails are being generated in the images/albums/thumbs_40 0r images/albums/thumbs_115 folders. I checked and I have dynamic creation selected in parameters. I also checked to insure PHP GD Graphics Libraries are installed on the server. In an attempt to get thumbnails displaying for albums and songs, I uploaded appropriate thumbnails into the thumbnail folders. However, I still do not see any jpg where they are suppose to be. I did look at the source of the loaded page and found the statement trying to be displayed as ".../images/albums/&width=40" where ... is the correct fullpath on the server. This looks strange to me as I would have hough the thumbnail file name should be there - not &width=40. Any help would be appreciated.

2. The Random Albums module does not show images. I downloaded the patch for this, but still no images showing. Also, the thumbnail width I set in the module does not seem to be used.

When I display either a Playlist or Playlists, the display takes the entire screen - it is not staying in the content area, i.e., it overwrites he right module area.

3. Popup player not working in IE8. It seems to work fine in FireFox.

4. No album art showing in player in either the module or pop-up view.

5. Adding song to playlist while player is playing a song stops the player. This is not good. If I am listening to a song and add a new one I sure do not wan to have to re-start the one I was listening to.

6. The embeded music player is not showing in the playlist screen. A blank rectangle is there and if I click in it a song sarts to play, but no controls are available.

Last, I am not sure how playlists work. I assume that when I use the add to playlist button it is being added to an on-the-go playlist associated with my user login. However when I look in the database playlist table there is nothing there. How do I add a named playlist other than the on-the-go one. How do other users add playlists?

Should you like to look, the site is loendorffamily.net.

I would be happy to send screen shots of any of hese issues if that would help.

Thanks for any support you can give - David
