How to play your MP3 music from
Dropbox / Google Drive?
VIDEO TUTORIAL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KyDRnwn4Vg8
Note that I was not able to record sound from IMVU with my recording software, so there is no sound in the video.
Note also that player is just software like media players for phone or Windows (for example Winamp) and user is responsible for music he or she is playing with it.
You can play your own music creations or a lot of free underground music that uses Creative Commons or Public Domain licences and are often shared by their original artists on soundcloud and other services, but playing commercial music without proper DJ license or other rights is
illegal.

Prevent
from unwanted users. First user who type -p command with 4 characters (example: -p XXXX)
as a password in area where you paste links, will stay as player
admin. Only admin can change passwords, same way as he started.
All current users will stay as moderators and can still play
streams (its because some users would take over players which do
not have password yet). All new users can hear streams, but have
to type password (same way as admin did) to be able play
anything in SYNC mode. They still can play in private mode (SYNC
turned off). Admin can turn off password with -p 0000 command
(he still will be admin, and other user who set another
password). Password expires after last user leave a room.
Play any
music link. Copy youtube (single
video or playlist), radio or mp3 link, hide IMVU text chat first, click on general status rectangle above main menu
and use
CTRL+V keys to paste.
Synchronize
with others or stay private. Use SYNC button to synchronize with others or turn it off to
stay in private mode.
Watch
movies. Use SCREEN button to watch videos (other menu panels must be turned off,
otherwise they will cover video screen). Use TV button to watch on larger
screen or in Cinema Mode real
time auto fit full screen. In this mode you can use synchronized
play, pause and seek for videos longer than 5 minutes (protection
from unwanted users when listening to short music videos).
Adjust your
space.
Hold left mouse button on top of player, start dragging and drop
on any place (its suggested to move it to top right corner). Turn off SCREEN,
VIDEO, RADIO, MP3 and PLAYLIST buttons
to get more space on your screen. Click on hash button (#) in top left corner
to switch between display modes. Default vertical mode is recommended.
Search
music. To find music, click VIDEO button, type song or artist name on left side
and click OK button.
Play own
music. If you are musican or have DJ license to play some tracks,
you can use your music files from your hard disk. To do it, just
register on dropbox
(they give 2 GB space and 20 GB transfer limit per day for
FREE), install their application and copy files easily to
dropbox folder. After your files are ready, use direct
links in player (example: login to your dropbox, click right mouse button on mp3 file, choose Share Link, new website will open, click right mouse button on Download and choose Copy Link Address).
Any other server hosts with direct links will work too. You can also start own radio station, paste
link and set admin access (-p XXXX) to prevent
unwanted breaks.
Import own
list. You dont have to paste link everytime you want to play
something. You can prepare own list of music and import into
player to play it easier by clicking. To do it, open notepad,
prepare your list, save it (CTRL+S), select all (CTRL+A), copy
(CTRL+C), hide text chat, click MP3 button, click on import area
and paste (CTRL+V). From now you can explore your list inside
player and play by click. Your list can contain youtube video, youtube playlist, MP3 file (dropbox, google drive or other server with direct access to
files) and radio stream (direct MP3 streams only, not AAC+, PLS
or M3U)
links. Number of links is unlimited.

added their own. Use minus (-) button to remove each song from
playlist.

when you back to player. Use plus (+) button near FAVORITE
button to add currently playing music to favorite memory. To

Paste
link does not work. Hide IMVU text chat first (or switch to inventory at this
moment), click on general status rectangle above main menu and use
CTRL+V keys (at same time or hold CTRL and then press V).
If still have problems,
send me a message.
Synchronization
with other users does not work. Be sure that you and other users have SYNC button turned on.

too big.
Hold left mouse button on top of player, start dragging and drop
on any place (its suggested to move it to top right corner). Turn off SCREEN,
VIDEO, RADIO, MP3 and PLAYLIST buttons to get more space on your screen. Click
on hash button (#) in top left corner to switch between display modes. Default
vertical mode is recommended.
Pause does not work. To keep best synchronization between users, pause works like
mute. If you dont want your player to get stream, use X button
to close it (click again to turn it back). Sync pause and seek
are available only for videos longer than 5 minutes in full
screen Cinema Mode (TV in main menu). It was intended to not let
other users to break listening to the music, but still allow to
control long movies.
Radio
station is playing too slow or skipping. Try to click on play button. Current radio stream will be
reconnected.
Cant remove
text from search. Use left angle bracket button (<) to remove each

Cant add to
FAVORITE. Click on plus button (+) near FAVORITE to add currently

playlist (as last). Click on song name if you want to play it
right now.
Spectrum Analyser does not work. For some security reason, domain server with your stream
does not allow enough access to its data. Read more about crossdomain.xml
file.
Some users
are breaking my plays. Use hidden command -p with 4 characters (example: -p XXXX)
as a password in area where you paste links. All current player
users will be moderators (can play) and all new ones can hear
only (they must type -p your_password to be moderators).
Some radio
stations or mp3 files do not play. You can play direct audio streams only. If your radio
station uses PLS
or M3U
playlist files, you have to open them with notepad, find stream
link and paste into player. If you are trying to play mp3 files from
dropbox,
google drive, or other file server, be sure they are direct

msp.sol files you found, log back to imvu and start remove from
your favorite list again. This time it should work correctly.
Special characters in song or video names can bring problems
with memory.
