Custom Video Player?

  • Hi, I’m looking to add a video player to my site similar to what they use on the front page of ESPN.com

    Does anyone know of a way to go about this? I’ve done several google searches on the subject and have come up empty-handed.

    Thank you very much.

    Do a search on ‘Flash video player’ and you should get a lot of hits. Also see the list of related searches that Google will provide. There are a lot of pre-compiled SWFs out there that might work, but if you want to have complete control over the look and operation of the player, then you have to have Flash Pro – either 8 or CS3. This all assumes you want to use a Flash player, WMV and Quicktime are also options.

    If you don’t want to spend a lot of time building and configuring a player, or working out how to populate it, then you might also look at the Brightcove service. They provide several video players and an easy way to arrange the video lineups.

    I’m using the Flash player from Earth Science Agency, and then customizing it in Flash 8 Pro.

    Yeah, that does look like a good one. I almost linked that but didn’t want to recommend something I haven’t tried myself. Let us know how it works!
