Another FLV Player

[Minty]

I've browsed through this thread but cant find that anyone has encountered what Im getting. After making the mod, copy/paste the code from the sample theme.php into the theme theme.php I want to use, then replace the code as outlined, I can watch the flv files but none of the other file types work. Previous to the mod obviously the other media types functioned.

Any thoughts on where I screwed up?

hello

is there possible to play with the flash player also mp3 files. because the windows player sucks, and real and apple player dont have everybody.

or is there another mod?

I have searched "flash mp3" but not good infos.

is there possible to play with the flash player also mp3 files.

No. It's a flash player, not an MP3 player. Don't clutter an announcement thread for an embedded flash player with your requests for something totally unrelated.

Can this be modified to use other players?  I have purchased "Sothink Video Encoder" and it offers a FLV movie player ".swf", and I would like to see if I can use it.

Thanks

Hi! First post here, but have been lurking in the shadows around the forums for a bit as I get coppermine working in my site Hope this thread gets some looks still, wasn't sure if I should post in a new thread, but I am using this hack, sooo...

Wondering if anyone can help me get another player to work with this? I have searched high and low for a player that does all that I need/want, and most of the very nice ones are using javascript... I can't for the life of me figure out how to get these to work with coppermine. As standalone, they are no problem.... but trying to get the filename string (in this hack $flv) paased from coppermine into the player is causing me to pull my hair a bit.

One player I found which has lots of nice features is this one: http://flvhosting.com/clients/looplayer/ ... how to get it to work, though??? Another very nice one, is OS FLV, found here: http://www.osflv.com/ ... several more, I have attempted, but no good... My knowledge of javascript is basically none and even very lacking with PHP (but am slowly learning as I go along... more trial and error ATM)...

Even the JW player would be fine, except for two problems: 1) the fullscreen button doesn't appear for me (I don't really like the click to fullscreen.. rather this pause and play). 2) It has had troubles playing some media, playing audio, but no video. Now, this could just be something that went odd when I did the FLV conversion, but then, some other players have no issue with this media... but, again, can't get these players to work with coppermine.

I would like to get this working ASAP, since when I get my mind on one specific part of the site work, it's difficult for me to focus on anything else

Many thanks in advance and more to follow for any help!!!

No thoughts on this? How about just ANY player that integrates well with coppermine and has a fullscreen button? Is that tumbleweed I see bouncing through here? Anybody?

Probably the wrong thread to be asking for other players.

Well, see I lost Karma on that one... impatience led to agitation and then to a slight bit of rudeness... sorry about that. Guess I will post in another thread on this then...

It already does buffer the video before playing it. If you're having problems playing the video then it's either your connection or your server's problem, not the player.

I could also use this feature.  I need it to buffer 5 seconds of the video.  The File encoding is rather large for the videos i am using.  What is happening is the file does not download to my pc fast enough and it freezes and buffers again.  is there any way to modify this setting?

[rphMedia]

Try the attached - increased the buffer time.
Also added Full Screen capability (right-click).

[papilow]

thanks!  what did you change the buffer too? now the videos dont auto play.  Not really a big deal, just curious.   Id rather have the buffer then the auto play.

[rphMedia]

I'll fix that tomorrow, out of town.

[papilow]

as far as im concerned it works fine for me :-)  thx for your hardwork.

Don't play files with cyrillic names.

I have followed every instruction but when I go to add the flv files there is no "OK" to selct the files to add them!!

to be more specific so I dont get blasted for being too vague,

I created my album, clicked "Batch Add Files" and selcted my directory where I uploaded the FLV files and the flv video shows but there is no "OK" to select that file directory to begin to add the file(s)!!!!

is it not recognizing the file type still? I added a jpg to see if it saw this and it did, so it is still not seeing my flv file type

any help at all?

thanks!

I don't think your problem is related to this mod.

mariahxxx has forgot to add the flv file type to the database If a directory has only files of unknown file types, no "OK" button appears in the file browser.
The mod is now working on her homepage.

[rphMedia]

I was going to ask that, but...

I have followed every instruction...

...convinced me not to.

[naved]

Sorry, I must have been completely sold out!!!!


Here it is my post in English:

OK, now I feel Kind of stupid...    Embarrassed Embarrassed
where can I find this file: flashobject.js
that I must put in coppenmine root?

I had the same problem... was wondering where the file is?!!

Then I realised that only registered users can see the attachment. So register and log in with your username and password to THIS board... and al will be revealed.

Hope it helps other clueless wanderers like me ;-)
