Stop autoplay in embedded object does not work

Posted: Jan 19, 2010

I'm trying to have a simple video on a page without autoplay. I've looked over these forums and the documentation and tried all manner of different ways but the video still plays when the page is loaded. I just took the example code here:http://flowplayer.org/demos/installation/alternate/index.html and attempted to stop it playing.

The last three things I've tried didn't work. They are:

<*bject id="flowplayer" width="480" height="270" data="/files/video/flowplayer-3.1.5.swf"  
    type="application/x-shockwave-flash"> 
    <param name="movie" value="/files/video/flowplayer-3.1.5.swf" />  
    <param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" />
    <param name="autoplay" value="false" />
    <param name="flashvars" value='config={"clip":"/files/video/vid.flv"}' /> 


<*bject id="flowplayer" width="480" height="270" data="/files/video/flowplayer-3.1.5.swf"  
    type="application/x-shockwave-flash"> 
    <param name="movie" value="/files/video/flowplayer-3.1.5.swf" />  
    <param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" />
    <param name="flashvars" value='config={"clip":"/files/video/vid.flv", "autoPlay":false}' /> 


<*bject id="flowplayer" width="480" height="270" data="/files/video/flowplayer-3.1.5.swf"  
    type="application/x-shockwave-flash"> 
    <param name="movie" value="/files/video/flowplayer-3.1.5.swf" />  
    <param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" />
    <param name="flashvars" value='config={"clip":"/files/video/vid.flv", "autoPlay":"false"}' />

I took a look at the embedding plugin here:http://flowplayer.org/plugins/javascript/embed.html but couldn't make head nor tail of what was going on. The page told me to click the buttons on the right to change things... there are no buttons on the right.

In any case, what am I missing?

(the object tags aren't displaying properly on the forum)

I found your post while having the same issue as you. I found this thread with an answer that finally worked for me and had to post it for you:http://flowplayer.org/forum/2/20499

Scroll about midway down to
» » » » » AutoPlay - this works from LeeMahn

I used his code and have the embed with NO autoplay :)

You have to change it in flash, not the HTML

I was having the same issue and found you have to set the parameters in flash.

In flash, select your video, then in the properties toolbar, click the "parameters" tab. In here you will see an "autoplay" parameter you have to set to false. Re-publish your swf and you're good to go!

Hope this helps. I know its like a year later, but maybe someone will find it useful. : )
