With your custom stylesheet, like any other div element.

Hi,

The player looks really sleek and elegant, thank you very much for making it.

I have a PHP Melody script and I’ve been trying to embed the script with no avail.

Can you please give me an embedding code to use it with PHP Melody?

I used all the files included with your product but each time I get a looping player with black background and no video showing!

Your kind help is highly appreciated.

The authors of PHP Melody have contacted me a while ago and it works fine, they are maybe working on a plugin. I’m not familiar with that CMS but you can contact me privately and I will assist you as I can.

Quite impressed by this player but I have a few questions before buying it:

- I need to display 4 different movies on the same html page, one in each paragraph. Do I have to create 4 different scripts and css or is there a simplier way (aside from the xml list)?

- Can I modify the aspect and placement of the thumbnails when using the xml playlist? I’d prefer to have it on the right.

- Can I add text and links to the thumbnails?

Thank you

You can have as many players you wish, just style them with your stylesheet for size and position. Of course you’ll need also more javascript setups with different flashvars.

The playlist can be edited with the provided classes, unless you want to just populate it.

There is a caption for every thumbnail, though you cannot add links to them.

Is it possible to not have thumbnails showing if I only have one video? Thanks.

Hi,

I purchased the player a few weeks back, and it looks great. I am having some issues though, that I cannot seem to resolve. I made the width x height of the player: 540×325, and am trying to get my videos to properly scale into the container.

From what I understand, ‘Fit’ seems to be the best option, but no matter which I use, my videos never properly scale; sometimes they do, and sometimes they don’t… and sometimes they do once the page is refreshed several times… but there never seems to be a concrete way to enable the videos to properly ‘fit’ into this aspect ratio. In fact, I am using ‘stretch’ now and it seems to make things “fit” even more often than fit…. my main objective is to have my videos displayed in their proper ratio… and not completely stretched out or squished.

When I am lucky, once the page loads, you can see the video properly adjust, but many times it just stretches and looks all distorted (in other words, a really widely stretched 4:3 format video). Also, when the videos do not properly ‘fit,’ the seekbar fails to display.

I am not sure if this has anything to do with my code implementation, because the strange thing is that if I refresh the page a bunch of times, it begins to fit properly; and then in the near future fails once again. If it helps, I am using a script, so the variables I have configured apply to every video that is currently on my site.

This is my current configuration:
var flashvars = {
vidWidth: "540",
vidHeight: "325",
vidPath: "www.myvidpath.com",
thumbPath: "",
autoPlay: "false",
autoLoop: "false",
watermark: "hide",
watermarkURL: "http://www.mysite.com/videos/index.php",
seekbar: "show",
showControls: "false",
vidAspectRatio: "fit" 

};
var params = {
menu: "true",
allowfullscreen: "true",
allowscriptaccess: "always" 
};
var attributes = {
id: "playerLite",
name: "playerLite" 
};

Obviously www.myvidpath.com and www.mysite.com are just example URL ’s

Thanks very much for the help :)

Some videos have strange meta data behaviour. Try using the “cut” mode. Thanks for dropping by! :)

Thanks for the reply :) Unfortunately, all options seem to the same thing; no matter if I use stretch, fit or cut… I get the same results…. the only difference with cut is that when I go full screen, the video appears to be properly adjusted… but, when exiting full screen it becomes distorted. When using ‘fit,’ the distorted videos become ultra-distorted on full-screen (ex. extremelyyyyy widescreen).

Yeah, I figured this probably has something to do with the frustrating meta data behavior… :(

But, the code above looks fine to you?

Thanks again!

The code is fine. Keep sure your vidWidth and vidHeight do match your div container. Try also to encode your video size and length to be even and not some strange number.

I am having a problem with the playList always going back and playing a video even if that is not the order. For example if I am on video 3 and it finishes instead of going to video 4 it would go back to video 1.

Here is the code I am using:


<script type="text/javascript">

    var flashvars = {
      vidWidth: "915",
      vidHeight: "465",

      thumbPath: "",
      autoPlay: "false",
      autoLoop: "true",
      watermark: "show",
      watermarkURL: "",
      seekbar: "show",
      playlistPath: "/files/xml/financial-playlist.xml",
      plShowAtStart: "true",
      plHideDelay: "3000" 
    };
    var params = {
      menu: "true",
      allowfullscreen: "true",
      allowscriptaccess: "always" 
    };
    var attributes = {
      id: "playList",
      name: "playList" 
    };

    swfobject.embedSWF("/files/playerLite.swf", "playList", flashvars.vidWidth, flashvars.vidHeight, "9.0.0","/files/expressInstall.swf", flashvars, params, attributes);

    </script>

Any help in resolving this issue would be great.

Thanks! Whey

Dear Manu,

I purchased your fantastic player already 2 years ago. However – I would need some more.

One question: at the moment – after starting the player – the Volume is on 100%. Could it be possible to have it on 50% by the start. And if – where to do the changes in the code?

Thanks in advance,

Henry

Very interested in your player, it looks like one of the best on Activeden. Since we’re starting a big campaign I have some questions:

1) Can I have an image or text with a link, ad-style ? 2) Does it support swf direct embedding (swfurl) ? 3) Can I embed it on a Facebook page (not an app) ? 4) We need to share the player within Facebook as these guys are doing: http://alostpeople.bandcamp.com/track/big-booty-bitches Is it possible with your player ? Here’s the code in detail: <meta name=""title"" content=""Big Booty Bitches, by A Lost People"" /> <meta property=""og:title"" content=""Big Booty Bitches, by A Lost People"" /> <meta property=""og:type"" content=""song"" /> <meta property=""og:url"" content=""http://alostpeople.bandcamp.com/track/big-booty-bitches"" /> <meta property=""og:site_name"" content=""A Lost People"" /> <meta name=""description"" content=""""/> <link rel=""video_src"" href=""http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer.swf/size=venti/track=3286317867/""/> <link rel=""image_src"" href=""http://bandcamp.com/files/69/61/696149510-1.jpg"" /> <meta property=""og:image"" content=""http://bandcamp.com/files/69/61/696149510-1.jpg"" /> <meta name=""medium"" content=""video"" /> <meta name=""video_height"" content=""105"" /> <meta name=""video_width"" content=""400"" /> <meta name=""video_type"" content=""application/x-shockwave-flash"" /> <meta property=""fb:app_id"" content=""165661066782720"" /> <meta property=""fb:admins"" content=""100001348735222"" /> ” 5) Can I customize what happens when clicking the share button ? 6) Can I protect the original video file, so that nobody can access it directly ? 7) Can I have metrics of how many people watched the video, how many clicked… and so on ?

Thanks in advance

cicciopasticcio, I’m going to answer your question below for each point.
  • When the player isn’t autoplayed you can choose to display an image or an external swf file.
  • You can load the player inside other swf files or use it as a standalone player. Both version are provided with examples and precompiled flashvars.
  • You might be able to embed it in Facebook as long it allows to include javascript.
  • I have no idea about the sharing functions. The player does not have any support about this.
  • I regret there is no way to avoid your video being leaked or copied. Even youtube doesn’t have a proper system. Once the video is in the cache of your computer you can do a copy of it no matter you do on your server.
  • You might include google analytics in your pages, though the actions need to be declared in the player functions if you wish to track them.

If you have further questions contact me privately. Thanks for dropping by! :)
