If that works, make sure you check it in different browsers. Some (mainly IE) have oddball results when dealing with Flash security policies.

First thing I would check is if you right click over where the player should be, do you see "Flash Player" in the right click menu? If so then the embed code is fine. I haven't used this module, but there is a chance that something in the player's security isn't letting it kick in. A good rule of thumb with anything Flash is to always use absolute domains and make sure you have a crossdomain.xml file properly set up. One way to check if that is causing the problem is to install the debug version of Flash Player:

http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html

If its a security policy problem then you should get a sandbox violation error. If its anything else in the player then you will also get an error popup that might indicate whats happening.

The relative URL passing to the player does fix it. Try clicking here, which is the code coming through on your site:

http://www.intorah.com/player.swf?file=http://www.intorah.com/sites/default/...

And you get a 404, but change it to this:

http://www.intorah.com/player.swf?file=/sites/default/files/mp3s/LoveAndRela...

And it works. I'm not sure how to set the modules to use relative instead of absolute URLs (never used them before). Hopefully someone else has an idea.

The admin/content/node-type/audio/display/basic page gives these options:

Generic File Path to File URL to File

<hidden>

I am using the first. The second or third just print text, not a link and then nothing happens. How can I tell it to use a relative URL? I am using FileField module.

Right click shows Flash, but "movie not loaded" The code isn't cross-domain. It's like this:

<embed height="40" width="300" flashvars="file=http://www.xxx.com/sites/default/files/mp3s/LoveAndRelationship1_0.mp3" autoplay="false" wmode="transparent" bgcolor="#ffffff" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="/player.swf?file=http://www.xxx.com/sites/default/files/mp3s/LoveAndRelationship1_0.mp3" style="display: block;"/>

That's the jQuery-generated code. Here's a page:

At least now I know what the problem is and I can try fix it. Thank you very much.

Don't know how to fix it the "right" way but adding this:

$content = str_replace('http://www.MYSITE.com%27,%27%27,$content);

in node.tpl.php worked. :)

Thanks.

LOL that's one of my favorite tricks when I don't feel like figuring something else out. Glad we got it.

Rock and roll. :)
