How to make a Sound-Preview possible in related products

After uncountable tries of various methods found - the outcome is still successless.  And now there's no time left to do further tests on my own.
So I really need your help.


The System:
- Joomla 2.5.11
- VM2 2.0.20b

(available) VM2-Plugins:
- iStraxx Product download
- VM2sounds
- Product-Builder


The Task:

Physical Product (CD) and multiple digital Products (mp3) with song-previews on 1 Page.

So all informations have to be entered only once ... and also gives a userfriendy overview of all products of an album (physical & digital Prodcts) in the frontend.
That's what is requested.


The Structure

Picture                   Informations (div. custom fields)

Physical-Product
Stock   Price   Quantity   AddToCart-Button
[/t][/t][/t]
  Long Description

Digital (Child)-Products:
Track# 1     Artist     Song-Title     Time     Details     PreView-Player-Button    Price     AddToCart-Button
Track# 2     Artist     Song-Title     Time     Details     PreView-Player-Button     Price     AddToCart-Button
Track# 3     Artist     Song-Title     Time     Details     PreView-Player-Button     Price     AddToCart-Button
Track# 4     Artist     Song-Title     Time     Details     PreView-Player-Button     Price     AddToCart-Button
Track# 5     Artist     Song-Title     Time     Details     PreView-Player-Button     Price     AddToCart-Button
[/t]

My Way to realise this
CD (as main-product)
- Contains all the main-informations about the Album
-> handles its child-products as related products (to display it under productdetails_view with the song-preview of every child-product)

MP3 (as child-products)
-> Sell it with iStraxx Product Downloader
-> Sound-PreView with VM2sounds

The Problem
In productdetails everything works fine. But the big problem is to display the music-player for sound-preview in related_view.
I use the VM2sounds-plugin for soundpreviews which is working fine in productdetails_view but does not display on related_products.

Hello jpach,
Do you have an url to see your product details ?

Thanks

At the moment, there is no sample on a public server that looks like it should. In the meantime the actual development-site has become very messy and there aren't much informations there. Almost all tests were made on my local pc.

You can take this as sample, it's almost the same thing but I want it within a product, like related products: http://jamhouse.com.au/newsite/jamtracks?start=10
I found this example here in the forum for Categories : https://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=112144.0

In the meantime I try to rebuild an example on a public server
