This is great idea! Actually I was thinking about adding support for all video formats (including .avi, ,mpeg ,...). Any help in code or recommendations would be appreciated.

sweeet.

The filefield solutions uses jquery media module to do the player controls. But it simply passes to the file type and lets the browser plugins do the work.

Ideally, having options would be ideal. For example, "choose your player". Flash is great because it's more cross platform. But quicktime gives better quality, and can be download. It would be great to set a default player. Say, flash/flowplayer like you have, then have an option to "view in quicktime" button that switches to the qt player. or vice versa.

but... getting to support qt player first would be best! I think you could use jquery media's approach and just integrate it as you have done so well with flowplayer?
