Hello, I'm using SWFTools (and also Flash node as an alternative) to upload a flv video on my site. I converted an avi file with a freeware software (DVDVideo Soft) which allows to put a player in converted videos too.......... problem is when I upload it to the site, the player won't show up, and I can't understand why. Should I put the files for the player ( I mean, one style.css, one player.swf and one jpg file with the frame og the player)... somewhere into drupal root?????? I can't understand.. hope someone knows!!! thanks

CCK and Contemplate?

what appears instead of the player? is it a white box? or nothing at all? is it the attachment on its own?

I have CCk but not Contemplate. What appears is the file alone, an flv video, and it works, I can even configure its size before saving it... only thing is I don't have the bar to control it, no play, pause stop I mean.

install it and make a contemplate for your node type--> video.

Should you need any php to paste in the contemplate let me know

thank you very much for your kindness. Now I've finally managed to make the FlowPlayer work, but there's the possibility it won't fit for my needs, so I'll save this suggestion of yours, and try it out in the near future. Thanks again!!!!!!!!!!
