File player reworked

The file player was causing page loads to be slow when many instances of it needed to be loaded.  The player no longer appears by default.  A "play" button appears for all playable files, and when clicked it loads the player just for that individual file.

Maximum file size for uploads

A limit of 1500 MB has been set for the upload of audio files into ScribeManager, because larger file sizes consume too much server power and affect other accounts' use of the system. 

Contact ScribeManager support for alternative methods of receiving large files.

Playing of files online

A file player has been embedded into the Jobs List page of ScribeManager, enabling the instant playing of files (mp3 format only) without downloading.  The player will usually play the smallest file available, whether the original or the converted file.

Mp3 files above 100 MB in size are not playable because of the amount of bandwidth this uses.
