    Medric –
    Your local videos are working for me, but when I try the one labeled RTMP I see an error ‘Video not found or access denied: rtmp://74.95.158.154/READY_STEADY.flv’.

    Are you sure of that RTMP link? If so, can you get that video to play from a standalone player somewhere?

    sorry to disappoint…

    This is the first plugin I developed, so I’m not certain what the best practices are. As with most plugins (I suspect) I just took a utility I wrote for a specific need and then tried to make it work as a plugin others could use.

    Most of what you seem to be asking about is on this page: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/flv-gallery/installation/

    Are you looking for something more? Should these instructions be repeated on the Settings page?

    I just posted version 1.4 that should fix your layout issues. Please try it and let me know!

    So glad I was able to fix that for you. We are starting a Gwinnett campus, so in a year or so we’ll make it more convenient for you to come by!

    Let me know if you have any other issues with the plugin. I’ve got a couple of other fixes and features that I’m going to try to get to soon.

    I just uploaded version 1.3 that should fix your problem. There are several calls in the plugin that used this syntax:
    <?= $someVar ?>

    Your PHP settings must not allow that, so I’ve updated all of those to use:
    <?php echo $someVar; ?>

    If you view source on your blog you’ll see that your theme’s header also uses this and has an error in the output (luckily it is in the IE6 CSS declaration):

    <!--[if IE 6]>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="<?=bloginfo('template_url')?>/style-ie6.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />
    <![endif]-->

    The new version of code is out there, so please download and let us know if it works.

    Your theme does not include jQuery. The plugin is supposed to make sure it gets included, but it appears like I may have accidentally deleted it. If you can add jQuery into the header of your theme it should work.

    There are lots of ways to include it – ping back if you need help.

    That is a wordpress error, and I can’t check it with the URL you gave because that’s a preview page, and you must be logged in to see a preview.

    Can you either publish the post temporarily or find another way to show what you’re trying to do with the plugin?

    I found the issue – the plugin calculates the max height of the cells and then sets all cells to that height so that everything lays out well. I didn’t account for someone using it like you are with several “tables” of thumbnails on a single page. I will have to change the plugin so that it only does that calculation one row at a time.

    Stay tuned…

    I had planned on making the player configurable, so this is a good option. I’ll look at it in the next version.

    Good suggestion – I’ll work on it for the next version. It may be a while as I’ve got some big projects going on at work, but stay tuned.

    It could be a couple of things – can you post a URL to your page and maybe I could look at the page source to help diagnose?

    I’ve updated the plugin to version 1.2 and addressed several of the issues mentioned in this thread. Please let me know if you continue to have questions or issues using the plugin.

    gdavid – sorry for the delayed response.

    Are you using the Visual or HTML tab of the Post Editor? The Visual tab will add some markup to the shortcode and render it unusable.

    All –
    Thanks for your interest in this plugin! I apologize for the lack of response – to be honest, I thought my little plugin had gone into obscurity, so I’m pleasantly surprised by the usage, and I am sorry for the troubles using it.

    I’ve traced most of the problems to the Modal CSS property – if the syntax on that isn’t exactly right it completely throws off all of the JavaScript and jQuery, rendering the plugin useless. I have a simple fix that will resolve that issue and also add a few more usability fixes.

    As for the ability to use this in a sidebar, that wasn’t really the purpose of this plugin. If you could provide any more detail about that I might be able to figure something out.

    Shyam, I was able to re-produce the error you’re seeing on the single post page. I’m not sure why those scripts aren’t being added to the page – I’m using a core WordPress function call, so I’ll have to figure that one out.

    I will do my best to post a fix for all of these issues in the next few days.

    Jimmy –
    I’ve updated the main PHP page with a slight change to the javascript that sets the width & height of the modal dialog. This should fix the issue you were having.

    Thanks for the feedback.
