[CMS] FLow player in CMS

[Flyte]

Any one have any suggestions on how to set up "flowplayer" in CMS? I have installed it and tested it and it does not seem to work.

Thanks

nvm I was able to get it to work by setting up BBcode tags for it.

Title: Flow Player
Tag name: flow
replacement:

<object id="flowplayer" width="525" height="350" data="http:/domain.com/videos/flowplayer/flowplayer-3.1.5.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash">  
<param name="movie" value="http://domain.com/videos/flowplayer/flowplayer-3.1.5.swf" />  
<param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" />  
<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /> 
<param name="quality" value="autohigh" />  
<param name="flashvars" value='config={"clip":{"autoPlay":false,"accelerated":true,"url":"{param}"}}' />  
</object>

Example:

[flow]http://vod01.netdna.com/vod/demo.flowplayer/flowplayer-700.flv[/flow]

just make sure you download the package from flowplayer.org to get the .js files and stuff.

With v404 you are going to get some additional settings, but right now the code above would probably work if you put it all on one line- remove the returns/newlines. And the author has "can use html" permission. I haven't tried putting around that, but that should work also. The parser currently thinks it should <br />'s at the end of each line, which doesn't work well.

do you guys plan on adding definitions? is there a way WE can add them?
or have the video pop up inside a "frame" that we can have a custolm logo in?

thanks

I know on the flowplayer site they give you the option to put your logo in, but you have to buy their commercial license to get the instructions. I asked them a long time ago how to get a frame in the player and they never responded but there is the option to put a generic jpg image in the frame that will show up on all videos. I would help you with that but I have not done it myself.
