SharePoint + Video : Player..
SharePoint + Video : Player..
- Ok so I currently have a set of code that works 'good' but I am wanting to enhance my look of my site.
This is the current code that works flawless but not what I exactly want.
<DIV align=center> <TABLE style="WIDTH: 156px; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #fffffd" cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 align=left> <TBODY> <TR> <TD> <OBJECT class=style3 id=Ad style="BORDER-TOP-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-LEFT-WIDTH: 0px; FLOAT: left;
This loads the movie easily and within a webpart. Using the basic widows media player.
BORDER-BOTTOM-WIDTH: 0px; WIDTH: 156px; HEIGHT: 156px; BORDER-RIGHT-WIDTH: 0px"
type=application/x-oleobject classid=clsid:6BF52A52-394A-11D3-B153-00C04F79FAA6>
<PARAM NAME="URL" VALUE="/movie.wmv"> <PARAM NAME="rate" VALUE="1"> <PARAM NAME="balance" VALUE="0"> <PARAM NAME="currentPosition" VALUE="0"> <PARAM NAME="defaultFrame" VALUE=""> <PARAM NAME="playCount" VALUE="1"> <PARAM NAME="autoStart" VALUE="0"> <PARAM NAME="currentMarker" VALUE="0"> <PARAM NAME="invokeURLs" VALUE="-1"> <PARAM NAME="baseURL" VALUE=""> <PARAM NAME="volume" VALUE="50"> <PARAM NAME="mute" VALUE="0"> <PARAM NAME="uiMode" VALUE="mini"> <PARAM NAME="stretchToFit" VALUE="-1"> <PARAM NAME="windowlessVideo" VALUE="-1"> <PARAM NAME="enabled" VALUE="-1"> <PARAM NAME="enableContextMenu" VALUE="0"> <PARAM NAME="fullScreen" VALUE="0"> <PARAM NAME="SAMIStyle" VALUE=""> <PARAM NAME="SAMILang" VALUE=""> <PARAM NAME="SAMIFilename" VALUE=""> <PARAM NAME="captioningID" VALUE=""> <PARAM NAME="enableErrorDialogs" VALUE="0"> <PARAM NAME="_cx" VALUE="4128"> <PARAM NAME="_cy" VALUE="4128"> </OBJECT> </TD> </TR> </TBODY> </TABLE> </DIV>
What I would like is to have
1) a pre-buffer on site load
and
2) then have an image as a still shot(preview image)
Right now it just sits on a black screen saying ready when play is hit it buffers then plays.
Thanks for any input!

- Hi design4fun,
I have had good experiences with flowplayer (http://flowplayer.org/). Just put the player somewhere on your site in a document library and refer to it in a content editor web part or your own custom web part.
A lot of styling can be applied and the player functionality can be extended with JQuery. You can do really cool stuff with a combination of these.

- Honestly, this isn't really a SharePoint question, but a general HTML or ASP.NET question. I think you might have better luck posting this question in another forum.
Visit my blog at blog.beckybertram.com or follow me on Twitter: @beckybertram - How is it not a sharepoint question? I believe it is... If you would please re-read my post.
I am wanting to figure out how to get a video player on my sharepoint site using another form of player that is more appealing.
The one above uses the windows media player and the code is put into a CEWP.
I was wondering what others have done or if there were other suggestions?
I was trying to figure out if there was a javascript based media player that I could launch or a flash movie player??? - Hi design4fun,

- Frank,
Thank you for your input I will play around with that one some!
Hrm... really cool idea! Any free ones as well? ;) I downloaded the free version but it is blasted with their logo which it should since it is a sexy video player!
This is one of the things I found which is awesome. But it does not give much details ;/

It uses the lytebox approach which is really nice and fluid looking!- Edited bydesign4fun Tuesday, November 03, 2009 4:16 PMAdded a Link
