Re: Any Flowplayer experts in the house?
Oh ok this is Southern strokes. I had problems with their video format.
I converted it.
Use something like:

To convert to another format.
BTW, flowplayer is an excellent player. I highly recommend it.
Re: Any Flowplayer experts in the house?
Thanks for your help Gumdrop, which file should I convert it to?
Re: Any Flowplayer experts in the house?
FLV is fine.
Re: Any Flowplayer experts in the house?
Excellent! That did it thanks, Gumdrop!
Re: Any Flowplayer experts in the house?
Anyone now how to stop the video autoplaying?
Re: Any Flowplayer experts in the house?
Look at my code above.
Re: Any Flowplayer experts in the house?
autoPlay: false?
I added that, but don’t think it worked:
<div id="player" style="width:512px;height:314px;"></div>
<script language="JavaScript">
flowplayer("player", "http://builds.flowplayer.netdna-cdn.com/36781/8623/flowplayer-3.2.2-0.swf", {
// player configuration goes here
clip: 'http://www.maleblue.com/assets/2010/06/23/Jayden_Ryanc_Bonus.flv',
autoPlay: false
});
</script>
Re: Any Flowplayer experts in the house?
ummm I looked at your web page source code and it still shows the old code.
Maybe you have page cache going on that you need to flush?
Re: Any Flowplayer experts in the house?
plus you have to enclose the clip: directives in brackets as well.
for example:
clip: {
url: "myMovie.flv",
autoPlay: false
}
So:
flowplayer("player", "flowplayer.swf", {
clip: {
url: "myMovie.flv",
autoPlay: false
}
});
But of course be sure to change the url: “myMovie.flv” to where your movie is located.
Re: Any Flowplayer experts in the house?
I have a lot of mov files that work fine with flowplayer
Re: Any Flowplayer experts in the house?
.mov should work fine with flowplayer (most excellent player ever) if it’s h264 encoded and the moov-atom is in the beginning of the file.
Re: Any Flowplayer experts in the house?
Gumdrop, you fixed it all! Thanks so much!!

No problem sweet cheeks…
Re: Any Flowplayer experts in the house?
GumDrop helped me with mine also!
he a legend!! R
Re: Any Flowplayer experts in the house?
Gumdrop, I’ve encountered a new problem LOL
It won’t let me have 2 players on a page. Do you know how I can fix that?
And also, is there a way of getting the player to show a frame from the video, rather than just a blank screen, before the user has clicked play?

Re: Any Flowplayer experts in the house?
Your divs need unique IDs
And also, is there a way of getting the player to show a frame from the video, rather than just a blank screen, before the user has clicked play?
You create a placeholder image and put it in the div that’s being replaced by Flowplayer.
I’m a couple versions behind, but the code is probably pretty similar… Here’s one of my embed codes showing both issues…
<a id="video42841-1964" style="display: block; width: 640px; height: 447px;" href="http://video.studio3x.com/bukkakeboys.com/2010/42841-1964.flv"><img src="http://video.studio3x.com/bukkakeboys.com/2010/42841-1964-640.jpg" alt="Watch Video" width="640" height="447" /></a>
<script type="text/javascript">// <![CDATA[
var player = flowplayer("video42841-1964", "/resources/flowplayer.swf");
// ]]></script>

Well you can do this for example:
<a class="player" href="video/video01.flv" style="display:block; width:400px; height:300px">
<a class="player" href="video/video02.flv" style="display:block; width:400px; height:300px">
<script language="javascript">
flowplayer("a.player", "swf/flowplayer-3.swf");
</script>
and setup this for example CSS:
<style>
.player {
display: block;
width: 400px;
height: 300px;
float: left;
margin-left: 10px;
}
</style>
Splash image can be used as a preview of video content. Like this:
<a href="video/video01.flv" style="display:block;width:400px;height:300px" id="player">
<img src="images/splash_01.jpg" alt="My Video Clip">
</a>
<script language="javascript">
flowplayer("player", "swf/flowplayer-3.swf");
</script>
Of course these are all examples. You have to adjust accordingly.
So what you are doing is setting up containers for video clip(s).
Re: Any Flowplayer experts in the house?
BTW here’s a good tutorial on it:
http://flowplayer.org/demos/installation/multiple-players.html
The things you can do with this player are amazing.
Re: Any Flowplayer experts in the house?
Thanks for your help again!
I’ve changed it, but both players for the two most recent posts play the same video
http://www.maleblue.com (the two most recent posts)
I’m confused because I have copied the code almost word for word.
Re: Any Flowplayer experts in the house?
That’s because you are still pointing to the clip url in the script’s directive. Remove the url…and do like so:
<script language="JavaScript">
flowplayer("a.player", "http://builds.flowplayer.netdna-cdn.com/36781/8623/flowplayer-3.2.2-0.swf",{
clip: {
autoPlay:false
}
});
</script>
Also be sure to define the player class in you style sheet.
If you add the splash pages or images then you don’t have to define autoPlay:false. But have a look at the tutorial page above.
