I know from the tutorials that mediafront 2 is a field based player, can it be used to play media inserted thru the wysiwyg editor? I have a block with a sound file that needs a player, can media front be configured to play that sound file?

Can anyone clarify if this is possible? For me the code is inserted into the wysiwyg but doesn't show when the node is viewed. I'm using media-2.x-dev and file_entity modules.

I talked with @travist in irc and he said that he hasn't tried this, so he wasn't sure if it would work.

I couldn't get it work correctly when I tried. The markup for the player rendered in the wysiwyg editor and the node view, but you couldn't see the player in the wysiwyg or when you viewed the node. It's almost like the javascript wasn't being injected.

Changing this to a feature request.

I was hoping it would work the same way that the media_youtube module works.

I couldn't get this working either. When I select the display to be "MediaFront File Player" nothing shows up. When I select "MediaFront Player" I get the strange display as seen in the attached image. (Thats on the final page. In the WYSIWYG editor, I just a bunch of white space, with 00:00 in the middle of it)

I haven't tested this, but this issue that was just committed to the media module might allow this #1942688: Documents embedded in WYSIWYG get converted to HTML by the editor

MediaFront player works for me on display with media 2.x alpha 3. It doesn't work in the WYSIWYG, but #1792738: Allow custom file view modes for WYSIWYG display should address this.
