Although there’s already many such similar website that offered Bands to exposed themself, Myspace Music still been choosen by the artist to market their music to all over the world. No doubt that there’s many successful band and artist come from Myspace apart from our famous Youtube. Well, as many other music website, Myspace Music also has a music player for the band to put their music for others to hear. Well, you might want to help promoting them as well right? Then, let’s hack the code source to get your favourite Myspace Band Music profile music player.
First, you need to login to your Myspace account. Oh, not forget to tell you that you need to use Firefox for this tutorial. And then, go to any of your favourite myspace band or artist music profile. If you dont have any, you still can search some of them through Myspace Music page to try this tutorial. For this tutorial, I will use my favourite local bands which is I Set My Friends on Fire.
To get this Myspace Band Music player embed code, you need to right-click on your mouse and click view page source at the Myspace Band Profile. Incase that your mouse doesn’t have any right-click or broken maybe, you can press CTRL+U on your keyboard. Note that this only work in Firefox.
Then, you will a lot of unknown codes that only can be read by geekies. Don’t worry if doesn’t know what does each of the codes meant. Now, at the page source press CTRL+F on your keyboard. This shortcut will create a search bar underneath of your browser. We use this to find the embed codes for your Myspace Band music player code.
Then on the search bar, type “profile_mp3Player“. Then it will automatically highlighted the related code. Well, that is the DIV tag for your Myspace Band profile music player. To get the embed code of the Myspace music player, all you have to do is copy all the line starting for the first DIV tag until the close DIV tag. You will have something that look like this:
<div id="profile_mp3Player" style="width: 450px; height: 345px;"><object style="visibility: visible; display: inherit;"><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://musicservices.myspace.com/Modules/MusicServices/Services/Embed.ashx/ptype=4,ap=1,plid=27298,artid=10287252,skinid=16,profid=245698495,shuffle=0" style="" id="shell" name="shell" bgcolor="#101010" quality="high" allowscriptaccess="always" wmode="transparent" flashvars="e=http%3A//profile.myspace.com/index.cfm%3Ffuseaction%3Duser.viewProfile%26friendID%3D245698495" width="450" height="345"></object></div>
Now, go to any of your social networking site such as Friendster to try embed this Myspace Band Music Player code. Easy, just go to your Friendster and click customize and paste those codes at the Media Box section. This is how it would look like.
Apart from embed it in Social Networking site, you also can embed this Myspace Band Music player code in your blog. Take a look on this post at my RockMyTune → Objek Bulat Band . See, really cool right? Instead of helping to promote your favourite bands music, you also can use it as a blog post in your blog.

Rasanya any browser pun ble buat kot…
yah, i think so since the only thing that you need to do is view the page HTML code source. Then search for the music player widget codes.
Can you tell me how you code the bookmark box?
Can you please code it for me? (I’m using blogger)

i never knew we could do that..
hehe…
hehe. i love to explore more and more things. haha
kalau terer, gi hack friendster private photo. Haha..
Hey there.
I am trying to do everything you suggested, but the bulk of text doesnt seem to be in the source code…. It has the first line (up to the dimensions for the player basically) but then it doesnt have anything like what you have found in your example…
I tried to change the friend id tags, but that just supplied a blank music player.
Hope you can help.

I don’t think this particular hack works anymore. They’ve stuck the bulk of the mp3 player code elsewhere in the source. I’m not much of a techie, so I don’t know how to do it. I just know something’s not there when I’m looking for it ;)
first off, i LOVE ismfof.
im meeting them in SD february 19th.
second, i couldnt find the embeded code for my boyfriend’s band Bright Lights and Busy Signals.
and when i searched “profile_mp3Player”
only this little short code came up.
so i clicked the next button and it still wasnt the embeded code.
im really trying to promote their band so id like to know this trick.
:)
thanks
This hack USED to work. It doesn’t anymore.
I have my profile’s old code, and it plays my OLD songs that I have already deleted.
They moved around how the music profiles work I guess.
I’m saddened by this.
haha
my myspace is
http://www.Myspace.com/djdesikidstaa
can anybody !!!! get me the code !
for my music player some one please help me
and email me !!
so i was able to add the player, but the first song automatically starts playing as it does on the bands myspace page. is it possible to add some code so this doesnt happen… basically i want people accessing me site to have click play before the song starts up. if u have any ideas that would rock!
and by the way thanx for the tutorial!
Ummmmm….. yeah dude – it works fine for me – don’t know what y’all are trippin on – but it’s simple. Just do what the post says. Copy the code between the tags – transplant it into your website or forum post or MySpace comment or put it in your pipe and smoke it ;) I found this to be well written and easy to follow. Thanks!
This is working at the time of this post.
Demo = YaY!

the recorder has been updated since this posting. i can tell how the scripts are arranged. in fact, i would assume that myspace intentionally changed the configuration so their player could not be embedded on competition websites. the code is there, but i can only pull fragments up. because the encoding has changed. please update this site. if i figure it out before u i will put up a blog to help the people.
note, it will work on ollder songs… like a yar or so old maybe.
ERM…BLEY THAN GAX…:=
