Anybody using the audio-player plugin?

Great plugin... but how the hell do you get the damm thing to work? I've been fighting a losing battle for about an hour now, and I'm throwing in the towel.

I downloaded the latest version
I unzipped the files
I copied the extracted audio-player folder to my wpcontent/plugins folder
I activated the plugin

Now what? What code o I use to display the player? I'm using a Page (rather than a post) as my homepage, and I'd like to play a song when someone comes to the site.

here's the site... I'd like to put the audio player either in the sidebar or the footer... but I'd just like to know what code do I use. Any help would be much appreciated.

    I use my own self hosted stuff referred to in my sig...

    Audio play buttons aren't that hard to setup really. Takes a few files and some simple code pasting.

    That's what I need fellas... the code. I think it's "[audio:filepath]", but I tried that and it doesn't work.

    Give me an example of the code you guys use... just change the filepath of your mp3.

    Thanks guys,

    If you are using the one Pixel Out plugin which is probably the best it would look like this.

    [audio:http://www.yourdomain.com/path/to/your_mp3_file.mp3]

    If you have loaded your audio in the default path you would have confirmed in the setup them you don't need the aboslute path just the relative one.

    [audio:your_mp3_file.mp3]

    Visit their page as there are all the help files and usage demos there.

    Thanks for the help guys... It seems I can't use the code in the sidebars nor any of the headers... which is fine. It worked when I inserted the code into the page.

    Now I've looked on the Pixel One site for guidance on how to have the track autoplay when folks hit the site... is this even possible? If so... how do you guys get the track to play automatically?

    Thanks again for your help.

    Never-mind... I found it!

    In Quentin's example... the syntax is
