Thread

I have just upgraded a site to ee 2.1 but the site used the flvplayer plugin which now doesn’t seem to work, is there another option to show flv files?

On another note love the new admin area design.

Steve,

Goign to move this thread to the new CodeShare Corner forum as more appropriate there.

Unfortunately I have not had the chance to finish my upgrade of the plugin for EE2.x.
Rather than leave your site in a broken state though for the time being you could hard-code the player code into the template and still use your custom field.

You may also find other plugins at devot-ee.com

Hard coding is probably the better way. Nothing against Mr D’s work (I use the plugin on a few sites) but it doesn’t always support the JW plugins, for example the Google Analytics plugin has never worked for me.

Steven,

No offence taken 😊 You have added your ‘plugins’ flashvar to include ‘googlytics-1’. yeah?

Hehe - yeah I added it, makes the player disappear though. It was just for our church site to guage what sermons were being listened to, not a big deal so just stripped it out.

Woulda been nice though.

Steven,
Well I am here if you want to get it working. You can privately email me if you wish

well

{exp:flvplugin 
playerpath="/flash/player.swf" 
file="{audiofile}" 
duration="{length}" 
playernumber="{entry_id}" 
screencolor="151d4a" 
width="400" 
height="20"
}

works swell

but

{exp:flvplugin 
playerpath="/flash/player.swf" 
file="{audiofile}" 
duration="{length}" 
playernumber="{entry_id}" 
screencolor="151d4a" 
width="400" 
height="20"
plugins="googlytics-1"
}

makes it vanish

Steven,

What version of the plugin and what version of JW player do you have?
have you got a link to the site?

v 4.5.0
Not sure about the player version though. The site is on http://www.greenviewevangelicalchurch.co.uk/resources/audio

Leave it with me and I will look into it later on for you.

That would be grand.

On line 95 of system/plugins/pi.flvplugin.php

Change

$id = ($TMPL->fetch_param('id')) ? "id: ".$TMPL->fetch_param('id')."',\n" : "id: '".$playerid."'\n";

to

$id = ($TMPL->fetch_param('id')) ? "id: ".$TMPL->fetch_param('id')."',\n" : "id: '".$playerid."',\n";

That should have you set. Missing a comma. Thanks for the heads up

Not sure if this is the place to look for help but I am trying to use v4.5 of the flv plugin (EE vr 2.1.1) and it is throwing a php error ....

  “Call to member function fetch_param() on a non-object .... p.flvplugin.php line 22”

My code looks like this .....

{exp:channel:entries channel="video"}
  {exp:flvplugin playerpath="{proj_path}/flash/players/player.swf" 
      file ="{video_file}" 
      playernumber = "9" 
      width="640" video"400"}     
  {/exp:channel:entries}

  It’s complaining about the “playernumber” parameter.  What is this parameter used for.  I can’t find anything on it and everyone seems to stuff {entry_id} into it. 

  While I got you on the line ... do I have to download a new player.swf from the JW_FLV site or does the one that comes with the plugin have the latest players & swfobject.js.

chrcollins,

That plugin is only available for EE1.x unfortunately for now.
You might find a similar media plugin available on devot-ee.com for EE2.x

Any plans for 2.0?
