If you want a video plugin to add your own hosted videos, use FV Player
it works great and the support is excellent!
In fact, the plugin is so good, that I have only had to contact support once in the last 7 years that I have been using it
thanks for being awesome!!

Useless watermark that does nothing except ruining for the viewer. We get it, you want to sell you pro license. A watermark won’t do that though.

It can be tricky to find a video player plugin that is updated regularly and that works across all devices. Not to mention at a reasonable cost. These guys know their stuff, the support system is excellent if/when you run into issues.

If you want to have a great user experience for video streaming, then this is the right app for you. The video player has features like the sticky video player and autoplay/autopause on scroll when in/out of viewport (visible screen fold) which is perfect. The autoplay option on page load offered by standard Theme builders like Elementor Pro is useless as the videos do not tend to be many times in the first screen fold. Besides, the loading times and other performance optimization options are very limited.
We chose Foliovision’s FV Player Pro and the world’s largest CDN Akamai to deliver high-quality short video content. But wait there’s more: in addition, FV Player Pro also provides highly customizable skinning opportunities through its easy-to-play interface for custom corporate branding. We decided to deploy this for a branded hotel chain website and a real estate website which have over 17,000 residential units & commercial area of 2.5 million sqft.

Lately, I just found this plugin for my client site. My client was requested after the vimeo video ended, it will be redirected to the URL you have been set.
So it helps me so much. I will not hesitate to renew the license of these plugins.

I have been using FV Player for over 2 years and its been awesome. I had several LMS videos that need to be grouped into a playlist and FV Player had the right solution. Great thing is that I can control my videos in the back end of word press, rather than in Vimeo, YouTube or other video hosting sites, which offers limited functionalities. Customer satisfaction has been great. They responded timely to a request I had with Chapters, modified the Pro Version to accommodate certain features within weeks. One of the features students love is that fact that if you are watching a video in a playlist, you can stop, exit and return to the last saved position. It keeps a track of videos watched in the playlist and students can restart or continue from where they left off. This was another of the main reasons why I purchased this plugin. I love the skins – wish they could give me more skins – what’s currently available is so much better than the inflexible skins of some video hosting sites. I have had no issues or plugin conflicts with FV player.

I chose FV because you can host videos anywhere you choose and stream them from your site. This gives me a lot of flexibility and prevents me from being locked into any particular service.
+1
I also found FV to be fairly robust in a number of ways.
+1
Lastly, the dev team is responsive when you contact them. This reliability is very important to me.
+1
All-in-all, I highly recommend this plugin over its competition (which typically tries to lock you into a single service).

We needed to find a video player that was capable of casting videos to a bigger screen using Chromecast. Soon we found out FV Player is the one to go for with such a demand.
While Chromecast streaming has been working really well for us, all of the other features are great too. There’s tons of options for you to finetune the player with and many of them are for speed optimization. While offering all these goodies, the plugin remains easy to use and is quick to setup.
I’d recommend this video player plugin to anyone searching for more than the default.

Unfortunately I have time to write this review as I am unable to progress with work while waiting for a reply to a query that I have concerning a feature, or missing feature, on the Pro version of the FV Player.
Not withstanding whether the issue can be remedied or not (as yet I do not know as I am still waiting for a reply) I am currently rather disappointed with the level of support so far – as I have had none.
So, to be clear, this review is concerning the support process. If the issue I have can not be remedied then I will write another review about that specific issue – or update this review.
The support is not easy to access and at every stage one is encourage to pay for premium support. It is now over 6 and a half hours since I posted my query on their own website support service and I still have had no feed back.
I give their support a very poor rating.
I think it’s fair to say that anyone who buys a plugin expects to receive prompt, if not immediate, support for their issue. After all, the product is built and costs nothing to deliver as it’s digital, so therefore the support element of the plugin is vital to its success and of course the users’ ability to benefit from it, commercially or otherwise.
I think it would also be a fair reflection of most peoples’ sentiment if I say that we expect excellent support to be included in the purchase price. I think most of us, for a feature rich plugin, are happy to pay $100, or $200, or whatever the price may be as this is up to our own evaluation. But what we do NOT appreciate is paying a fee for the product and then be encouraged to pay EXTRA for timely support. This is very bad practice.
If i pay for the product i expect good support. If the company is not willing, or can not afford, to offer good support then they should charge more from the outset. The latter method keeps everyone happy and avoids customers being left with products they can not use. Time wasted trying to resolve issues and or not being able to progress with work quickly becomes far more costly than the plugin itself.
My advice to anyone considering buying this plugin is to spend plenty of time using the demo version if you can, as if your experience is similar to mine, you will be waiting far too long for feedback to even the most basic of issues.

I don’t like the fact that the plugin can’t be tested without a watermark, but I now understand the developer of the plugin have no control over that.

I had a few problems when I tried to set this up, but all the other plugins had the same problems too, so I thought I’d try and find a workaround.
My problem arose from trying to use ‘Dropbox’ videos as embeds on my website.
Looked easy enough – just grab the link from Dropbox and paste it in – it wasn’t that simple though.
Following the advice I found on a forum somewhere, I started butchering the links by removing the ‘dl=1’ bit after .mp4? and putting ‘raw=1’ in instead.
Still not working, so I tried adding an ‘mp4 format’ into the additional formats box, and up it fired!
Still getting a few admin warnings about the videos, but these can be safely ignored for now it seems, according to the docs.
Really nice video player that stops you needing to rely on the likes of YouTube to embed videos, and it’s five stars from me!

Hello everyone,
I want to communicate my experience with those of foliovision for the € 90 FV player purchased as a wordpress plugin. The player is nice and the control panel is also neat. The only thing they have not put, is a button to activate or deactivate, a simple function, the box now playing that is located under the player, from the control panel. Some may like it, some less. I don’t like it because I consider it superfluous, as the same function can be obtained from the control bar if you want to switch from one song to another. So I studied the control panel to see if I could take it off, but nothing. You don’t know how much this problem took away from me. So I sent them requests for clarification from the contact form on their site, once, twice, three times. Nothing, no answer. Then I started looking on their website for an email to contact them. I found the email and kindly wrote to them, at least twice, that I had this problem of removing now playing, which I was unable to remove. Nothing! no reply. Then I went to their forum and posted the request for help. After several days an answer arrives saying that if I wanted assistance I could take advantage of them by purchasing the assistance package at the price of another € 100 approximately. This story has lasted and has been going on for about two months. I can’t link their forum, but if you want you can go there, the topic is: “remove now playing”. Then they gave me, through the forum, indications on how to get what I was looking for. I went to copy the CSS that they suggested to me, taken from their documentation. Nothing, no results. I pointed this out, and as you can read if you go to see, I was unable to solve the problem. But now I got annoyed and I’m going to stop using their player, even if I paid € 95.
In the meantime, I have seen that there are better, nicer, much cheaper ones, on envato or wordpress plugins. I was wrong to trust their product, to buy without having tried it thoroughly, this is true, also because there is a trial version that allows you to do numerous tests.
I trusted the fact that a player that costs you € 90, for not having to deal with the code, had to have no problem. Because this is about it, or I copied the code of some player or I wrote it, or to not have the time or the desire to work on it, you buy it already beautiful and ready, 95 €. But once bought you don’t want to have any more problems, with code. And instead these here after making me pay € 95, they left me with nothing of what I wanted, except to go and pay another € 100 of support, where they wrote the new code to me. I must say that in the forum they were not able to help me, as the indications suggested did not have any effect. When I finally pointed out that this activation / deactivation function could be inserted directly from their control panel, they deleted the post. In short, I must say that it seems to me, that turns and turns, if you don’t pay him another 100 € of assistance, they make fun of you. They pretend they don’t understand. Their purpose is just that, to get you more money. So I strongly advise against buying this player.
Best regards.

I searched and searched for a good video plugin for video. FV Player has been the perfect solution. For the ability to save your viewing location, set pre-post roll and so many other solutions… It’s the most powerful video plugin I’ve found for WordPress. On top of that I needed help to integrate into my setup using Elementor and Advanced Custom Fields. I signed up for their Pro support option and within hours got an answer back and a custom solution. They went above and beyond to help me get up and running!
