» Flow Player Control Failing in 2 ways

Posted: 3 weeks and 2 days ago

Hi Jamie,

1) Check the media is being replicated correctly, the controls are loaded separately to the player, this error indicates a server is not returning the controls.swf, check using firebug for a 404/403

2) Sorry ditched windows years ago, IIS is no longer my "thing"

Somewhere else to check is the session persistence on you Cisco, and if you managing this hardware dump out the requests made and served, your ISP can also do this, _IF_ everything is returning 200 OK please provide the following (if you can)

a) Test page
b) IP of LB
c) IP of each webserver
i) Each webserver must be accessible on port 80 and respond to this ip.

I work with numerous linux and layer3/7 loadbalancing technologies and have a tirade of scripts I use for diagnosing these problems.

Cheers

» xmoov setup - PLEASE HELP

Posted: 3 weeks and 2 days ago

Change this

define('XMOOV_PATH_ROOT', 'http://127.0.0.1');

To this

Linux:
define('XMOOV_PATH_ROOT', '/path/to/webroot');

windows:

define('XMOOV_PATH_ROOT', 'C:path owebroot');

XMOOV provides pseudo streaming by reading in the file itself as such it needs the physical file path, not the path as it appears from the webserver.

» Cookies for TABS!

Posted: 3 weeks and 2 days ago

Well you _could_ use cookies, or think outside the box,

or in this case "outside the tab"

1) Have 1 hidden input for each tab i.e.


<input type="hidden" id="tab1_val" />
<input type="hidden" id="tab2_val" />
<input type="hidden" id="tab3_val" />

Now simply write the value as you need to into each input, and read it back when you need to.

Not an elegant "hack" but saves on cookies, and has a low overhead :-)

Have fun

Cheers

» mp4. Cell Phone Video Streaming

Posted: 3 weeks and 2 days ago

I can't see this ever occurring in Flowplayer as it's flash based and iPhone will never support flash:http://uk.gear.ign.com/articles/106/1065534p1.html

You're application code needs to detect the browser "user-agent" headers, it's easy to identify a Cell phone from this, in this case instead of rendering Flowplayer you render a link directed to the .mp4 file, or streaming service.

This allows you to enjoy using flowplayer and continue to support mobile media which for stupid reasons will not support flash.

Android however is supposed to support flash, any confirmation on this would be appreciated.

» FP Working but stops after 5 secs.

Posted: 3 weeks and 2 days ago

Hi There,

You'll also notice that the "scrubber" time is showing 00:00/00:00 at a guess I'd say this media is missing keyframes. You will need to regenerate the media and if you intend to allow seeking allow 1 keyframe for every 2 seconds.

i.e. 12fps = 1 keyfram every 24th frame.

Cheers

An example URL would be more helpful, so we can check you have all the correct files loaded into the page,

Check if the demos are working for you and let us know.

Posted: Jul 12, 2010

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

If you actually take the time to write out your question properly and not in "txt spk", I'll take the time to write a full reply, until then if you can not be bothered nor can I.

Guys, as noted in the sticky post, the Drupal and Wordpress plugins are not maintained by the flowplayer developers.

In this case the wordpress plugin is maintained by me, as I am the original author.

If you have issues with the flowplayer plugin, the admin page and the readme both say to report your problems onhttp://trac.saiweb.co.uk

In this case I can say that the wordpress plugin currently runs on 3.1.x, I plan to have this updated to 3.2.x shortly.

In the interim as a workaround, you can rename your 3.2.2 swf files as detailed in the post by goldxdot and overwrite the 3.1.x files, this will get you working.

Cheers

» Delete setups?

Posted: Jul 11, 2010

Licenses are per domain, not per setup.

Unless you are paying someone to install it for you.

In which case your indecisiveness has cost you, here's a note figure out what you want to do before paying someone to do it, they have every right to charge for each installation.

If you can not get so far as installing flowplayer, how do you intend to maintain it yourself?

» page ask 3 times flowplayer (see with firebug)

Posted: Jul 11, 2010

I can see you are using rtmp as the media source, depending on the keyframe setting of the media (if I am right in thinking so), it may be taking a while to buffer.

I have run some profiling on the provided page, and found that typically I am getting a ~600ms page load time for all the assets in the page, the longest time comes form waiting for the rtmp stream to start rolling, again I think this has to do with the key frame position in your media.
