Extension talk:MediawikiPlayer

I would like to suggest you add support for default images to your extension. All that was needed was a change to the default settings to include $wgMWPlayerDefaultSettings = array(              'width' => '400',               'height' => '300',               'allowfullscreen' => 'true',               'backcolor' => 'eeeeee',               'image' = ' ',               );

and then a command such as

http://www.yourdomain.com/mediafile.flv

can be used to set the preview image.

Thanks for the great extension.


 * You can already set the image and any other setting known as "Flashvars" listed on this page:list of flashvars You don't need to edit the extension file at all, just add the parameter to the tag. --Frantik 05:36, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
 * for example, this is perfectly valid and displays an xspf playlist

Use in Template
Is there any way to use link in a template? If I try so Mediawiki just prints it out and doesnt convert it.--Eski123 17:13, 30 November 2009 (UTC)
 * MW parses tags in brackets before other parts of the text, ie before tempates are transcluded. I will look into ways around this for future versions.  --Frantik 16:28, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
 * if you're running 1.12+, look into the #tag magic word: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Magic_words#Miscellaneous
