• Hello, I would like to learn how to change the default video player with something like flowplayer or JW player.

    I was thinking on removing the video shortcode handler and replacing it with my own function to wrap the url inside the custom player. Something like:

    remove_shortcode(‘video’);
    add_shortcode(‘video’, ‘wrap_video_shortcode’);

    Is there some other way?

    Also, could I have multiple players to choose from in the media embed dialog, the one with player, url, attachment page…

    Thanks!

  • Why don’t you simply install Flowplayer HTML5 or JW Player 7 for WordPress?

    Ha ha, how didn’t I think of that??

    Installing those plugins is out of question, I need keep the backend as it is, it’s a requirement from the client.

    Please answer only on topic, thank you.

    Even if you don’t want to or cannot install such plugins, why don’t you look at the source code of these plugins and see what they did? Analyzing existing plugins is a great way to learn how something is done.
