Player and Playlist Questions

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for choosing video gallery plugin. To show the scrolling time and other controls in the player just like demo, you need to enable the Skin from admin -> Video Gallery –> Player settings –> Skin visible -> ticket the check box and save the settings.

The paid version and free version has almost got same feature. There are only two differences.
1. You can add your own logo in paid version, while in free version you cannot do.
2. You can also add videos from other websites using embed code option in paid version. The free version does not have this feature.

You can enable/disable all the options from settings. Yes If you uncheck playlist auto-play, the next videos in the playlist will not auto play. Here the related videos are considered as playlist. The plain playlist enables the related videos in center/side.

You cannot manage settings for each playlist. The settings is common for all the playlist. If you play a video from any category other videos in that category will be listed in related video playlist.

Warm Regards,
Arun

Thank you so much. That works great! We can use categories as our playlists so that works well too.

I think I only have one other question. I’ve been asked to look into the possibility of adding comments or notations along with the video. I know this would be custom programming and that is fine, but I was wondering if the player supported anything like the Embedded cuepoints of Flowplayer from
https://flash.flowplayer.org/demos/events/embedded-cuepoints.html

We’d like to add notes during parts of some videos. I believe it can either be below the video like the Flowplayer demo or in the video like YouTube videos that have things pop in.

I’m guessing it’s a long shot but would the player support that if we were able to add any custom programming to it?

Thanks,
Andrew

Hi,

I understand that you want to add notations like in flow player example. You can customize the file swfobject.js like below and make it work.

<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
<div id="mediaspace" >
                    <script type="text/javascript">
                        var s1 = new SWFObject('https://wamp2.g3.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/contus-video-gallery/hdflvplayer/hdplayer.swf','player','644','390','9',"#333333");
                        s1.addParam('allowfullscreen','true');
                        s1.addParam('allowscriptaccess','always');
                        s1.addParam('WMode','direct');
                        s1.addVariable('file','VIDEO_FILE_URL');
                        s1.addVariable('preview','PREVIEW_OF_YOUR_VIDEO');
                        s1.addVariable('thumb','THUMB_IMAGE_OF_YOUR_VIDEO');
s1.addVariable('title','TITLE_OF_YOUR_VIDEO');
s1.addVariable('tagline','DESCRIPTION_OF_YOUR_VIDEO');
                        s1.addVariable('autoplay','false');
                        s1.write('mediaspace');
                    </script>
                </div>
