The Pop-Up Player (PUP) module allows users to add audio files to a playlist as they surf the site. PUP also provides an audio player in a separate window from the browser's main window, allowing users to listen to their playlist, uninterrupted, while navigating the site.

Some highlights:

  • The playlist is saved in the browser's local storage. Nothing gets saved in Drupal.
  • No user account on the site is required to create playlists.
  • You may provide "Add to playlist" links in your pages just by wrapping any link pointing to an audio file with specific markup (see Installation instructions).
  • The player is based on HTML5 and JavaScript, with a fallback to Flash. Playback is handled by jPlayer.

Sites using PUP:

  • Radio Spirale (in French only; try the "(+) Ajouter à la liste d'écoute" and "Ouvrir le lecteur audio" links).
