okay for the player I referenced, its actually really easy.
Download the files. In the download, there is an example html, with 2 players. A single, and a List player.
Look at the code, then copy and paste the player you want. I usually use the single.
Upload the player swf, and the js file to your server.
on your template, in the head, add this:
Code: Select all
<__script__ type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></__script>
then, on your page content, add this:
Code: Select all
<p id="player1"><a href="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer">Get the Flash Player</a> <br>to see this video.</p>
<__script__ type="text/javascript">
var s1 = new SWFObject("video/flvplayer.swf","single","300","240","7");
s1.addParam("allowfullscreen","true");
s1.addVariable("file","midget.flv");
s1.addVariable("image","preview.jpg");
s1.addVariable("width","300");
s1.addVariable("height","240");
s1.write("player1");
</__script>
in the "var s1 = new SWFObject", you need the path to the flv player file you uploaded, then the size (width, height)
s1.addVariable("file","midget.flv"); where my "midget.flv" is my flash video file name
width and height again.
thats it.
I usually build my player in the template, or in a global content block to the tinymce doesnt eat the script.
