[divecall]

Thank you for this mod. Its a good and nice one.

But i have a little problem: it is necessary, that the movie is hosted on my server. so in my case, only the admin (me) can show the movie. it´s ok, but i know the BBC-code now. How can i delete the button in the posting area ? it is not necessary for the other, because they never can upload movies...
how can i delete the marked button in the picture ?

Thank you, problem solved...

great mod (and great support !).

[vicram10]

you're welcome

I like this.  Very cool man

[gbsothere]

Just a quick comment...  The instructions (1.1.11, default) for manual installation are:

Move the included file "player.swf" to "./Themes/default".
Move the included file "swfobject.js" to "./Themes/default".
Move the included file "yt.js" to "./Themes/default".
Move the included file "jwp.gif" to "./Themes/default/images/bbc"

There is no "yt.js" in the zip, but there is a "yt.swf".  I'm sure that's what you meant, but I thought you might not mind if I pointed it out, in case you wanted to make a slight change in the parsing instructions?

 



ETA:  Great mod; works beautifully.  Thank you.

I didn't see this addressed, but I'm wondering about any plans to add the ability to add other JWPlayer parameters like image, autostart, skin, etc.)

Is it safe to assume that I can go to the source code added and hardcode those values if they are consistent throughout the forum (and point to my licensed JWPlayer if I want?)

Thanks,

Bob

I made a modified version for my demo site with image parameter but you can add any parameter you want at your site and if you are kind enough you can post here any change you make as long it is for the non-commercial version of jw5.
Yes you can do changes in the code to point to your licensed JWPlayer.

Install an ftp client software in your pc and the rest is easy.

I may have given the impression that I would actually know how to add parameters through modification of code. I can probably figure out how to hard code specific values, but not how to modify the code so I could do something like [jwp image=http://xxxx 200,200]

If you have modified code to do something like this, where would I find an example of it? If I could see it I might have enough knowledge to use that as a start to add other parameters as needed.

[nikan]

You can add parameters inside the [jwp=425,344] like this [jwp=width,height,image] and add them in the code.
To add preview image use this code:

nikan,

was checking my error log and i'm getting something strange listed.

Code Select Expand

which points to:

'test' => '\d+,\d+\]',       
'content' => '<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="' . $settings['default_theme_url'] .

specifically, line 1294 is:

i think that was it.

thank you!

[simmi2121]

its like i want to add mp3 player on my site with my playlist .... m unable to do it ...  i want it on my main index ... and the playlist + song i will put it in my hosting area ... so that it can directly play on site ... in simply i want a simple media player for my main page

i think JW player of works in posting area only ?

[nikan]

Yes, this mod is only for posting area.
If you have installed JW Player mod create a html or php block from your portal and put the necessary code inside it.
Use this wizard to get the code.

[simmi2121]

very thanks 4 replying my dear bro .... but bro i want on my main page ... is there any player in ur knowledge bro that plays music on my main index page

[nikan]

If you haven't got a portal mod installed you must put the code of the JW Player in the index.template.php

[yakyakyak]

Adding Portal block code using the Integrated Portal option will make your existing forum look seamless with the added benefit of adding useful blocks anywhere on your forum

Please Experts help me in this

Thanks with Regards

[User Deleted]

is it possible to use this mod as a profile song player?

[Wallace.D]

Hi nikan, everyone,

I've installed JW Player on SMF 2.0... Everything seems to have worked fine on the install but I can't seem to get it to work. When I try to post video the player is visible but no video - just an error message on the screen:

"Video not found or access denied"

For what reason might access be denied? How do I enable access? This is very frustrating... especially seeing that others here seem to have had no problems in using this mod!

I uploaded the video (mp4) using Filezilla to the 'Public_html' folder on my server... then by right-clicking on it, I copied the URL to my clipboard then pasted it into the BBC code as follows:

Code Select Expand

[jwp=425,344,image]ftp://[email protected]/public_html/Fox%20News%Hacked_.mp4[/jwp]

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong or why this thing won't work?

I'm basically having the same issues as Dain above (except I don't have a 'portal' - Do I need one?) in that I'm not sure where exactly on the server to upload the video to... then once it's there - I have no idea how to link to it so that it will play.

I've searched now for about 3 days trying to figure this out on my own but to no avail, so I've come to humble myself and ask you fine folks for help with this. Not to be overly critical but you would think that these basic instructions on how to use this mod would be included here...

If I'm having these issues - I think we can be sure that others (such as Dain) have had them too.

Thanks in advance to anyone willing to help me out here!

[Wallace.D]

Bump

[Wallace.D]

Thanks for all of your help everyone, especially Nikan.

Er, wait... nevermind.

Thanks for nothing.

[nikan]

Is it obvious? I really hope you figure it out by now.

You used an ftp address with username and probably a password and the proper use is http://domain.com/video.mp4

The button is only visible to admins, the posted video is visible to all.
Clear forum and browser cache.

[Mr. Pirate]

It doesn't work, I cleared the cache, emptied out logs, and other maintenance and still it didn't work. It says on the test account when I create a topic "Insert flash video".

[nikan]

Did you empty the cache of your internet browser?

[Mr. Pirate]

Yes, but its still visible to regular members. In the next version can you put permissions? I don't want new members posting porn or anything you know.

It worked!! Sorry I placed the code under the wrong place!

Edit:  Uploaded a video to my server and tested it and it works beautifully.  No errors.

In theory I would not have problems although when creating lists it may not work quite well, at least with the tests I did quickly.

Ok well it was a thought at best    Its impossible for me to get the version of jplayer on my site so I thought I could write a code to the exixting mod but since I am nit a developer I thought it best not to...It won't accept Utube audiobooks either though
