Hello. I just purchased your video player. I read through your pdf but I am still somewhat unclear. I want to ask you bobocel how I can set/put multiple videos on a page. Do I just make another folder, copy and paste another index.htm into the folderl, put in the next video and image file into the folder as well and then change the names in the html settings? Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you.
Hi. I want to ask you how do I embed this video into a layout cell. When I place the .html code in the portion of the layout cell, I can preview the page and the video plays. But when I go back to edit the page in standard or layout mode, everything in my page gets moved around and the layout table is wrapped around the layout cell. I also see l showing up on design view. How do I properly embed this video player onto a cell? Thanks. -Criz
Hi, is there a quick way to make the flash player do a getURL() action as soon as the video has finished playing?
thanks!
Hi,
Could you please tell me if the flv & image source could be a full URL to the filename, i.e http://www.mysite.com/assets/video.flv, our flv files are stored on another server therefore I would need to use the full path?
Thanks
would it be possible to know how to make an URL appear when the video finishes? mindyourhead posted that question, not sure if it got answered. thank you
This is a nice and slick player but it has a major bug: once the movie gets to the end and you click play again the entire movie is re downloaded no matter if it’s already in the browser’s cache. That might be due to the fact that ns.play(videoPath) is called instad of ns.seek(0) every time you re-play the video. The problem was reported before in the comments thread and you can check it out yourself by re-playing the demo video on this very site (you can find other links to test in the comments thread).
Some possible drawbacks are: excessive bandwith consumption and the impossibility to seek back and forth because the file is being downloaded over and over again.
Actually, if you check the demo, you will see the second time you play it, it jumps directly at the end of the video loading, because as I told you in the email, the video IS cached. If you need further proof, please browse to your browser’s cache and see the file right there.
Please do not misinform if you are not familiar with this stuff. Thanks.
I’m sorry to hear that you’re still not acknowledging that bug. Just open up Firebug or Chrome/Safari developer tools, look into the network resources and re-play the video a couple of times. You’ll see that both the video file and the image preview file are completely re-downloaded every time, no matter if they are already in the browser cache. I’ve checked with different video files on different sites and with different version of Flash player and if you read through the comments thread you’ll find at least another person complaining for that behavior.
If anyone is willing to pay $20 for this player should at least be advised that three’s such problem.
Look, if you think that’s how it does, than try to click at the end of the video (near the end of the video) next time it starts, and you’ll see it goes directly there. No need to wait for it to load.
You know why that’s happening? Because it is cached, as I said.
In Flash, I can’t do something to force it reload, unless I use a cache buster in the html, which I didn’t.
Hey bob,
Quick question….I have a small video size at 320×240. I’d like to make it where the scrubber/timeline takes up most of the space on the control bar AND make the scrubber and handle larger so its easier to grab.
I only want to show the play/pause, scrubber, and sound icon. So the stop, timer, and fullscreen icon are gone.
I’ve deleted the FS icon from the flash file but the space is the same. I could probably figure it out if I had the time but wanted to see if you have any suggestions?
Thanks, Nate

I have two problems with vplayer 14 my first issue is I have it where when you click one of my small thumbnails images the entire screen darkens and a bigger image appears, the image is supposed to take center stage with the rest of the screen darken however there flash player 14 is still visible and is on top on the bigger image, is there a z-index I could edit. I took a look at the .js file but no idea. Basically I’m trying to change the z-index of the flash player v14 so once clicked my image will not be covered.
Also I’m tying to edit the source file to add my logo on the bottom of the player, will I need to break apart the layer, and edit the controls that way, please shade alittle light on this process.
Thanks in advance Dorian. dworrell3969@yahoo.com

var so = new SWFObject("flvPlayer.swf?imagePath=bg.jpg&videoPath=rtmp://cp22609.edgefcs.net/ondemand/marriotttimeshare/se/EPIC/11-2172-spring.flv&autoStart=false&volAudio=60&newWidth=720&newHeight=406&disableMiddleButton=false&playSounds=true&soundBarColor=0x0066FF&barColor=0x0066FF&barShadowColor=0x91BBFB&subbarColor=0xffffff", "sotester", "720", "406", "9", "#efefef");
so.addParam("allowFullScreen", "true");
so.write("flashcontent");
</script>
It only plays when the videopath is writen like this:
videoPath=11-2172-spring.flv
could I add something like this to the Actions.as file?:
include “NetDebug.as”
stop(); nc=new NetConnection(); nc.connect(“rtmp://66.216.97.115/UserName/video”); NewStream=new NetStream(nc); MyVideo.attachVideo(NewStream); NewStream.play(“flvname.flv”);
Amazing!!!
Is there a way to put the video on loop?
Thank you
