Yes I want to add a file that is hosted on another domain!

Greetings Michel (mmcw)

westis > Yes, I know flv player and I do appreciate the work of Calguy. Actually, this module didn't answer my need, so I decided to code mine, like I did for Album, TruetypeText or Map. Cocnerning the hosting of flv files on another server, it is a feature that is on my plans, but I didn't have the time to add it yet.

hexdj > Well, you made me discover another PHP way of developping. This error shall be fixed in next release

gletofire > Well, shame on me : my error messages aren't very clear $:-\$ Did you just install module or have you made some upgrades ? If you're in the second case, perhaps an upgrade didn't happen well. You then shall reinstall module.

0.5.0 is out.

Changes :
- as usual some bug fixes and code cleaning (thanks to all bug reports)
- it is now possible to play a remote video or audio file : just put its URL in record location

Any feedback is welcome, especially every bug you see...

@dam, Installed and this time no errors!!!

Will play with the module and report to you if I find any bugs.

Thanks for your hard work on a great module!

Good work, dam! I have two bug reports, a feature request and a question.

1) I just installed the latest version. When I enter a URL for a remote file it just keeps loading. Is it uploading the file to the site server or did I do something wrong? I just entered a URL as location and clicked Save.

2) Also, when I upload a file through the browser, when I click upload the browser window becomes empty. However, the file is uploaded.

3) Would it be possible to create a playlist for flv/mp4 files?

4) I suppose it should be easy to use the [url=http://JW%20FLVPlayer]JW FLVPlayer[/url] by adding a player and customize the code? Would it be easy/possible to create a web TV site like the one at www.okv.se (click Webb-TV).

Thanks!

/Daniel

0.5.1 is out
1) Fixed
2) Well, there was a test of file existence that coul take a long time with remote files. I supressed that for remote files.
3) Playlist ? Why not. I'm just thinking about that, but I'm not sure it will be in next release. Perhaps the one after...
4) This type of website is possible, but it will not depend only on Play module : it is about changing the video that is displayed by clicking a link on the page.
Neolao player provide a way to be controlled by javascript, but I didn't try this feature actually. To be honest, it is not in my priorities today.

Thanks! Ok, then I know. The FLVPlayer module works great for my needs currently, as it includes handling of a separate playlist that updates the player with javascript. An update is close, so that it is also possible to use the latest versions of JW FLVPlayer (that now also can play h.264 encoded mp4 files btw, which the latest Flash Player can handle). At one point I may put together a tutorial on how to customize it for a web TV kind of use.

The Play module complements the FLVPlayer module in a great way and is probably a module that more users may find easier to use, when the needs aren't as "big" and when wanting to be able to upload and automatically encode files.

/Daniel, who enjoys when there are more and more good modules being actively developed and maintained

The problem is in the file: class.ffmpeg.php
and the first line of the follwoing code:

function exec($options, &$result = array()) {
//$cmd = $this->command." ".escapeshellarg($options)." 2>&1";
$cmd = $this->command." ".$options." 2>&1";
// 2>&1 is used to redirect error messages to standard output
$this->setoutput(array($cmd));
exec($cmd,$result,$status);
$this->setoutput($result,false);
return ($status == 1);
}

Disabling this class will make th ebuttons work again but selecting a file (SWF) will not work anymore!
