Is it possible to check if jPlayer is playing right now? I have several players per page and I need to change some classes, depending on which jPlayer is currently playing. The most obvious check for me is to see if the player I'm checking is currently in playing state. I found something about the playing event in the documentation, but don't get how to use it.
For now I have the following, and this works in my situation, but a better solution would be to check which player is playing when the button (which fired the play function) was clicked:
// Shows in what player the song is currently playing.
var currentSongId;
function play(songId) {
$(".playing").removeClass("playing");
$(".stop").removeClass("stop").addClass("play");
// If some song is playing-stop it and resets current song so that on next play-it starts playing again
if (songId == currentSongId) {
currentSongId = null;
return;
}
// some other logic where I set currentSongId1 or 2, depending on what player's play is fired.
}
Example binding for play event:
$(id).bind($.jPlayer.event.play, function(event) {
if (event.status.currentTime>0 && event.status.paused===false) {
// Its playing right now
}
});

MP3 list with jPlayer:
var srcvalue = "";
var songName = "";
function play(songId) {
srcvalue = $(songId).attr('src');
songName = $(songId).attr('title');
// Show the new song's title
$(".jp-title ul li").text(songName);
// Then add the new song
$("#jquery_jplayer_1").jPlayer("setMedia", {
oga: srcvalue
}
// Play from the begining
).jPlayer("playHead", 0).jPlayer("play");
}
$(document).ready(function() {
// Get first song
srcvalue = $(".song:first-child").attr('src');
songName = $(".song:first-child").attr('title');
// Then show the first song's title
$(".jp-title ul li").text(songName);
// Bind click event to playlist
$(".song").each(function() {
$(this).click(function() {
play($(this));
});
});
// Starting value
$("#jquery_jplayer_1").jPlayer({
ready: function(event) {
$(this).jPlayer("setMedia", {
oga: srcvalue
});
},
supplied: "oga"
});
});
