Summary: Flowplayer recipe

Version: 1.0

Prerequisites: Flash Plugin installed, Flowplayer's swf (included in the file attached)

Status: Beta

Maintainer: Gianpaolo Terranova

Categories: Media, Markup

Purpose

The purpose of this recipe is to allow the inclusion of the flowplayer flash video player into a pmwiki page.

Description

flowplayer-1.0.tar.gz (file hosted on www.terranovanet.it due to size limit on uploads)

This recipe provides a customizable block to generate the code needed for embedding the flowplayer swf file.

Installation

Download and extract the archive as shown below:

pmwiki/

cookbook/

flowplayer.php

flowplayer/

.htaccess

addloadevent.js

flashembed.min.js

FlowPlayerClassic.swf

FlowPlayerDark.swf

FlowPlayerLight.swf

FlowPlayerLP.swf

Then, add the following to local/config.php

'include_once("cookbook/flowplayer.php");'

Usage

To reproduce a video on your pages add a the following directive:

(:flowplayer <options> :)

The script supports all configuration options available to flowplayer, save those related to playlists (soon or later I will implement them, right now I don't need to). Have a look at flowplayer documentation for information on their usage.

e.g. (:flowplayer width=400 height=300 src=Dark videoFile=http://www.example.org/path/to/file.flv autoPlay=false :)
