Simple Flash Video

Allows the addition of FLV and MP4 video to blog posts powered by Jeroen Wijering's FLV Media Player, SWFObject by Geoff Stearns, and Shadowbox by Mic

Usage

To use the plugin simply put: [video filename=/path/to/file/whatever.flv /] into your blog post replacing the path with the real path to the file. You can add additional parameters to code to be passed onto the flash player as well as control the plugin. All player options are supported. You can also pass thickbox=off to turn off thick box and simply have the player show in the post. You can also set embed=true to use embed code instead of the SWFObject code. Example of more advance usage: [video filename=/path/to/file/whatever.flv thickbox=off embed=true width=400 height=320 /] Any variable that the Longtail video player can use can be passed in through the command.

Arguments

While you can use any argument in your video command that is supported by JW FLV 4.4 there are also a few that only apply to SFV.

  • vid_image (http link to image) - use this to set a different image for the link
  • botr (true false)- use this to enable support for bits on the run. This is needed if you are using domain masking and have not defaulted to bits on the run in the config.
  • shadowbox (off on) - enables or disables shadowbox for the single video
  • click_title (words spaced by   ) this will allow you set a custom text below the image that is used for the video
