braham - May 9, 2008 - 12:37

Hi
I am new in Drupal. I have installed FLV media player & place the mediaplayer.swf file (from http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?item=JW_FLV_Player ) in this "flvmediaplayer" directory and set configuration options per content type at admin/settings/flvmediaplayer .
I followed these steps to install "swfobject_api" module
1) Please module into modules directory
2) Download SWFObject library from:
http://blog.deconcept.com/swfobject/#download
3) Place the swfobject.js file into modules/swfobject_api/
4) Place the expressinstall.swf file into modules/swfobject_api/
5) Activate module in admin/build/modules
6) Configure the module via admin/settings/swfobject_api

i installed "XSPF Playlist" also ans media file as "XSPF Playlist for each node"
I enabled player for "story " content type
I uploaded one "20051210-w50s.flv " in story attachment but player is not rendered.
Please help me what is missed by me to install JW player.
Thanks in advance

What version of Drupal are

What version of Drupal are you running?
Have you tried other modules as Video module or Flash video module?

I wish I could use Flash video module for what I need easily, but Video module works nice for me. However I had to edit the lines for embedding flv video so that JW player works nice instead of Flowplayer. I also had to edit the module to make the player load from the specified location on Video module and play any video no matter the location of the video on my server, oh well.

Nevertheless I think I'm gonna experiment with Flash video on Drupal 6, and find a way to make it work for me. Has better support and would be cool to implement it once I migrate to Drupal 6.
