Syntax[edit]
Base Syntax[edit]
<flvplayertwo width="320" height="240" autoPlay="false" autoBuffering="false">filename.flv</flvplayertwo>
- width: default = 320
- height: default = 240
- autoPlay: default = false
- autoBuffering: default = false
I find the defaults to be sufficient; <flvplayertwo>filename.flv</flvplayertwo>
Attribute Reference[edit]
The following attribues are a subset of the configurable flashvars that is used by FlowPlayer.
- width=px or % (Specify the width of the movie when displayed)
- height=px or a% (Specify the height of the movie when displayed)
- autoPlay=true/false (Automatically start playing the movie, default:false)
- autoBuffering=true/false (Automatically start buffering the movie on page load, default:false)
Examples[edit]
Installation[edit]
- Download the latest version of the code
- Copy the code into a file named FLVPlayerTwo.php
- Save the file in the extensions/FLVPlayerTwo directory of your mediawiki folder
- Add the line
require_once( "$IP/extensions/FLVPlayerTwo/FLVPlayerTwo.php" );to the end of your LocalSettings.php file (The name of your file is case sensitive!) - Download the latest Flowplayer file from Flowplayer (3.1.0
- Extract flowplayer-3.1.0.min.js, flowplayer-3.1.0.swf, and flowplayer.controls-3.1.0.swf from the zip file and place it in the extensions/FLVPlayerTwo directory of your mediawiki folder
- You'll probably have to do this if you get the error about uploaded files being corrupt or having the incorrect extension.
Now you can use the extension with <flvplayertwo>...</flvplayertwo> in the wiki.
Once you have uploaded a file using "Upload File" from the toolbox, then you can use the filename within the tags. E.g. If you upload test.flv and it is saved as test.flv then <flvplayertwo>test.flv</flvplayertwo> should work fine.
