BB Code Enhancements - FLV/MP4/MP3/M4A Media Player BBCode For VB3+VB4

FLV + MP3 Video Media JW Player
Go The New Look!

What Makes This Player Different?

Old Look


New Look


The New look is not that different, but as you can see above the picture is now stretched to fit the Player Size. This is good for smaller width videos. Still the same for HD. And finally we can use different Skins! Credits Lawrence for his/her player Skin. Plus a Plug-In for the MP3 Player to. As seen DEMO.

After messing around for a few weeks, i "HOPE" i have finally finished with what i was aiming to accomplish for my Forum. That was a new Media Player look and an MP3 Player, i must say, its not that good, but...to me its by far better than the plain old look of the JW Player.

I really wanted more, but JW really has its limits. I wanted to make a .png 3D animations as a background image in the MP3 player, but JW just had a few Restrictions that i couldn't get past, not allowing animated background images. I settled for an Equalizer Effect Plug-In which i added to MP3 Player, credits to wesley luyten for JW add-on. You will need to see DEMO for Effects. Anyway, this is what i have came up with that works fine on my boards using FF+IE. NOT Tested with any other browsers. But i "SO" hope these Players work for anyone that wants to use them.

try adding a file called crossdomain.xml to your root and inside add the following:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "http://www.adobe.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd">
<cross-domain-policy>
   <allow-access-from domain="*" />
</cross-domain-policy>

Thanks ShawneyJ, unfortunately this didn't work.

Any other suggestion?

Thank you.

I have uploaded crossdomain.xml to the root and also to vb folder but still receiving the same error message!

I have also uploaded the mp4player folder to my vb directory and created the bb code as in the installation instructions in the included txt file.

[ShawneyJ]

Hmm, i thought mp4player was uploaded to root. Let me check.

EDIT: I have re-uploaded mp4player.
Its a little less confusing.
Can confirm the player works using another domain other than your own using crossdomain.xml.

Screenshot of some random MP4 video i found on the web.

Thanks ShawneyJ, I'll try mediaelement instead of mp4player which is still not working with me in spite of the different tweaks in crossdomain permissions!

BTW, what is the difference between mp4player and mediaelement if both of them can do the same work?

mediaelement supports mobile phones, android. its HTML5 with flash fallback.
where mp4player only works with flash. example: just desktop computers.

Shawney, I got the MP4 player working but could not get the mediaelement one to work.

I get a No video supported format and MIME type found in the Media Element one.

The MP4 will suffice for me for now, however is there a way for it to show a thumbnail like youtube does and the controls before you click on the player? It is just a black screen when the page loads. It works when you click the player just fine.

Maybe I do not have something installed correctly?

Sounds odd. You did template edits?
Would love to try get it working for you.
And no, just player image sorry.
