Wordpress Flowplayer (Flowplayer for wordpress)

Posted: Dec 17, 2008

Hi All,

With the release of Flowplayer 3 and wordpress 2.7 I thought it was about time I updated by plugin, so after around of email conversation with the flowplayer developers to clear up some questions I had here it is!

Blog page:http://www.saiweb.co.uk/wordpress-flowplayer

Announcement:http://www.saiweb.co.uk/php/wordpress-flowplayer-flowplayer-for-wordpress-20067-released

-----

The plugin itself comes bundled with 3.0.1 flowplayer GPL, and a basic admin menu for setting auto play, autobuffer settings etc.

At the moment the plugin only supports streaming media hosted on the same site as the blog (this will change in the next release).

1. Download plugin and upload all contents to /wp-content/plugins/
2. Create a directory in your webroot for media files /wp-content/videos/
3. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress
4. Place [FLOWPLAYER=media.flv,600,450] where media.flv is your media file in /wp-content/videos/ in your blog text.
5. Updates are made available automatically via the wordpress upgrade system, please ensure you read the change log before upgrading.

Suggestions for features to support via the admin menu are welcome.

Cheers

Buzz

Here are some suggestions:

  • Possibility to configure a playlist (is this there already?)
  • Possibility to supply a configuration to specify the player colors
  • Options to set background images for the canvas and for the controlbar
  • Possibility to specify a label for the play button overlay

And for the commercial version:
  • Possibility to specify a custom logo and configure if it's shown in normal mode too in addition to the full-screen mode.

1) Possibility to configure a playlist (is this there already?)

This is planned, I am just having some trouble with the logic behind this, as the plugin is based on a 'hook per post', I would need to introduce a play list syntax into the hook, that's the theory anyway.

TRAC:http://trac.saiweb.co.uk/saiweb/ticket/5

2) Possibility to supply a configuration to specify the player colors

Thanks for the link, I may pilfer that very config interface for the admin menu of the plugin ^_^.

3) Options to set background images for the canvas and for the controlbar

4) Possibility to specify a label for the play button overlay

TRAC:http://trac.saiweb.co.uk/saiweb/ticket/8

5) Possibility to specify a custom logo and configure if it's shown in normal mode too in addition to the full-screen mode.

TRAC:http://trac.saiweb.co.uk/saiweb/ticket/9

Thanks for the input :-)

I am also toying with the idea of FFMPEG support, anyone interested?

Cheers

BETA Skinning support added

Posted: Jan 6, 2009

Reply to: Wordpress Flowplayer (Flowplayer for wordpress), from DBusby
I have now added BETA skinning support to the plugin.

You can get the development copy of the plugin here:http://svn.saiweb.co.uk/branches/wordpress-flowplayer/trunk/

svn exporthttp://svn.saiweb.co.uk/branches/wordpress-flowplayer/trunk/

The plugin does say it is 2.0.1.0 however this is not the case yet :-P

I have tested this on my installation of wp 2.7, and it seems to work fine (despite my poor colour choices).

Can someone else pelase test this and give me some feedback?

Cheers

Buzz

Fixed ticket #12 in changeset 122 (http://trac.saiweb.co.uk/saiweb/changeset/122 )

Including "offsite" videos via http now works, I have however had to remove the planned google analytics support for the time being ...

~There's alway 2.0.1.1 ;-)

Feature Suggestion

Posted: Oct 16, 2009

Reply to: BETA Skinning support added, from DBusby
It'd be great to add the control auto-hide parameter to the admin options. I went & added the code manually, but it'd be nice to have it built into the admin config instead.

Overall, nice job on the plugin!

Full URLs and OnStream Media

Posted: Oct 29, 2009

Reply to: Wordpress Flowplayer (Flowplayer for wordpress), from DBusby
I'm having a bit of trouble with certain remotely hosted videos. I have an account with OnStream Media that I would like to use but the FLOWPLAYER command does not recognize either streaming or non-streaming URL I get from OnStream.

I've tested the URLs in a variety of formats that prove the links are legit, but are not recognized by the code.

Can anyone give me some insight?

Thank you,

~jon

I have just watched the demo. This is a really cool plugin and as I can see, it is also free as it is listed on Wordpress Plagin page. The only problem I can see with the Wordpress itself. (I hope not). The latest upgrade to Wordpress 3.0 brought many changes to the blog script itself and I can see that the plugin is compatible with Wordpress 2.9.2 and below. Any word of upgrade of the plugin?

Hi All,

1) splash images

This is simple and the exactly the same as using the playlist features, simply

[flowplayerhttp://domain.com/image.jpg|http://domain.com/media.flv]

2) WP version compatibility

this is a flaw with the wordpress code, assuming 2.9.2 plugins fail to work with 3.0, the sad thing is all I need to is update the readme.txt file with the compatibile with version 3.0

in short I have tested this plugin with 3.0 and it works just fine.

3) Autohide / don't do this / <~Feature here->

The plugin has a limited set of features, if you want to request one please do so on my trac system herehttp://trac.saiweb.co.uk

if your idea is a good one then it will make it into an update, alternatively if you are a developer you can submit a "patch" that will be rolled into an update, as one developer did here:http://www.saiweb.co.uk/flowplayer/flowplayer-for-wordpress-splash-image-patch

The project is completely open source, and I welcome contributors.
Cheers

Buzz
