Need to embed self hosted media - Not Youtube, Google Video...

I need to be able to start embedding video in my posts on http://www.Coursesaver.com. I have the space to host my own files and can encode them to any file format that I need to. Currentlly they are as AVI files. They are around 45 minutes per video and I would like to have 1 copy of reduced quality, and a second of good quality that is subscription based. They are videos helping students get ready for the med school tests. I just upgraded to Vbulletin 4 because of the built in video embedding, but didn't know it was only for big services like youtube.

This is a html code to embed avi not sure if it will help :

Code:

<object id="MediaPlayer1" CLASSID="CLSID:22d6f312-b0f6-11d0-94ab-0080c74c7e95" codebase="http://activex.microsoft.com/activex/controls/mplayer/en/nsmp2inf.cab#Version=5,1,52,701"

standby="Loading Microsoft Windows? Media Player components..." type="application/x-oleobject" width="280" height="256">

<param name="fileName" value="file name.avi">

<param name="animationatStart" value="true">

<param name="transparentatStart" value="true">

<param name="autoStart" value="true">

<param name="showControls" value="true">

<param name="Volume" value="-450">

<embed type="application/x-mplayer2" pluginspage="http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/MediaPlayer/" src="file name.avi" name="MediaPlayer1" width=280 height=256 autostart=1 showcontrols=1 volume=-450>

</object>

Would love to be cross compatible with Mac and PC. Also would love to stream the files since they are around 200MB each. I was looking at Flowplayer, but I couldn't get the bbcode quite right...

Code:

Tag name : 

flv



Code replacement:

<a 

   href="{URL}"

   style="display:block;width:425px;height:300px;" 

   id="player1">

</a>



<script language="JavaScript">

   flowplayer("player1", "/flowplayer-3.1.5.swf");

</script>



Example:

FLV:[flv]URL[/flv]

so when I put the code [flv]http://www.coursesaver.com/Chad/Dat1-1.flv[/flv] in I get an error 200 Stream not found.

Trying the changes on this page: http://www.coursesaver.com/showthrea...=3142#post3142

Did you ever succeed with this project? If so, how?

Thanks!

and it will play a file as large as your server can handle i believe, i stream 1Gb vids and i cant see there being a cutoff in file size if those play.

I know this thread is old but why not convert your video to flv with a good program that creates the flv and swf player for you as well as html. Then just embed the player using BB code. I host all my own videos on my forum. Works perfect in vbblog, PMs, welcome messages, and anywhere else you have access to the editor!

If your interested I will share my BB code and converter program with you:

No converting program on a PC comes close to Sothink Video Encoder!
