			<description><![CDATA[Hi,

When playing an mp3 file the preview image remains displayed.
However, when one selects an mp3 stream (e.g. for shoutcast) the preview image disappears (screen becomes black).

I would like to setup the JW Player such that the user initially sees a picture with a play button on it,
and when the user hits the play button, the player starts to play the mp3 stream and keeps the picture.
Like said above, this works for a mp3 file but not for a mp3 stream.

How can I easily achieve this?

-Paul.


Here is an example, the html file (all js/swf files are standard files put in the same directory as this html file):

[code]
&lt;head&gt;

	&lt;title&gt;Player Testpage&lt;/title&gt;

	&lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot; src=&quot;swfobject.js&quot;&gt;&lt;/script&gt;

&lt;/head&gt;

&lt;body&gt;
	&lt;div class=&quot;media&quot; id=&quot;preview&quot;&gt;You need Flash Player 9 and a browser with javascript to use this test!&lt;/div&gt;

	&lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;&gt;
		var s1 = new SWFObject(&quot;player.swf&quot;,&quot;player&quot;,&quot;470&quot;,&quot;470&quot;,&quot;9&quot;);
		s1.addParam(&quot;allowfullscreen&quot;,&quot;true&quot;);
		s1.addParam(&quot;allowscriptaccess&quot;,&quot;always&quot;);
		s1.addParam(&quot;wmode&quot;,&quot;opaque&quot;);
		s1.addParam(&quot;flashvars&quot;,&quot;file=mybunnies.xml&amp;skin=overlay.swf&amp;lightcolor=ff9900&amp;frontcolor=ffffff&amp;=&amp;backcolor=000000&amp;controlbar=over&amp;playlist=bottom&quot;);
		s1.write(&quot;preview&quot;);
	&lt;/script&gt;

&lt;/body&gt;
[/code]

And the playlist &quot;mybunnies.html&quot; containig one mp3 and one shoutcast stream:

[code]
&lt;rss version=&quot;2.0&quot; xmlns:media=&quot;http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/&quot;&gt;
