» Domain License question..

Posted: 13 hours ago

You only need one license for the sample.com domain. See:
http://flowplayer.org/download/help.html#how-many-domains

text, text2, text3 are just different locations on the same domain. But your license will even be valid on all subdomains of sample.com, like www.sample.com, subdomain.sample.com etc.

» MP4 Error

Posted: 13 hours ago

You are not seriously expecting that I download a 725 MB file to check whether it has encoding issues?

Please have a look at:
http://flowplayer.org/documentation/installation/formats.html
especially at the section regarding h.264 files and metadata (could be the problem with your large file if the browser tries to buffer it entirely) - to check whether your mp4 file meets the requirements to be played by Flash or provide a link to a significantly smaller sample which exhibits the same problems.

Thank you.

Changing the order does not make a difference with regard to the error. Also it would very counter-intuitive, as the purpose is to choose the default for bitrateselect via bwcheck's <camp>checkOnStart.

Bug report is here:

To be retracted immediately if you can point out a fatal mistake in my sample config of course ;-)

Are you sure the bitrateselect and bwcheck plugins work together? I get


[ERROR] time 17:35:16.151 :: 300: Player initialization failed: TypeError: Error #1009
(anonymous function)

in this minimal sample:

» Scrollable Playlists

Posted: on monday

You probably have to escape the ampersand in the href - I assume there is no intended space before the equation sign.

Manually:


<a href="KimAronson-TwentySeconds59483.flv?start=10%26end=350" class="first">

Not that writing & within a href is invalid html anyway, you would have to write &amp;.

I am extremely sorry if I sounded terse. I didn't mean to discourage you from contributing to the forum!

I was in a hurry, and made a quick correction to avoid confusion. OK?

Nope. autoPlay is the default, no need to specify it explicitly. See my other answer.

» Autoplaying playlist"s first item

Posted: on saturday

The playlist plugin docs say:

f you want your player to automatically start playing when your page loads, then you'll have to remove all content inside the player container and add a href attribute for it that corresponds to the first entry in the playlist.

http://flowplayer.org/plugins/javascript/playlist.html#autoplay

It even links to this demo:

Posted: on saturday

Nope. There is no loop property in the player's playlist configuration. If you use the javascript playlist plugin you can specify:


flowplayer("playerContainer", "/path/to/flowplayer.swf", {
  // player configuration goes here
}).playlist("#myplaylist", {loop: true});

to loop the playlist. But that's the playlist plugin's configuration.

» Loop a video

Return false in the onBeforeFinish event of the clip:

Flowplayer forum example

HTML setup for the player

<!-- include latest Flowplayer javascript file -->
<script language="javascript" src="path/to/flowplayer-3.2.8.js"></script>

<!-- player container with optional splash image -->
<a href="path/to/video_file" id="playerContainer">
	<img src="path/to/splash_image" />
</a>


JavaScript coding

Following script will install Flowplayer into our player container


<script language="javascript">
// our custom configuration is given in third argument
flowplayer("playerContainer", "path/tohttp://releases.flowplayer.org/swf/flowplayer-3.2.11.swf",{
clip: {
  onBeforeFinish: function () {
    // loop clip
    return false;
  }
}
});
</script>

I've contacted the plugin developers. Hopefully someone gets back to you soon.
