I think I made the same mistake that I did several months ago on the z-index. Instead of entering just the number, you have to include the Z-index attribute. I apologize Baconfries.

Thank you for looking into the size issue.

Resizing works great now BaconFries. Thank you for addressing that.

I've also just noticed that the Stretching attributes do not adjust the view when applying. I get the same black border around the video regardless. (exact fit, fill, none, uniform)

I'm wondering if you would also consider adding a title tag in addition to the alt tag. The alt tag does not provide the intended mouseover. I believe the title tag would do that instead.

Hello,

Does this extension use streaming protocols eg rtmp://streamingserver/url.flv

Tried it but not working or it must be a file you host.

Thanks for any help.

Hi mate, Ok I have never tried to add skins to the extension but I do know that not all skins will work depends on what version of the JW is used. From memoery if I am right you need to place theskins in the same folder as the player.swf file, it been a while since I have read this at JW now longtail you might get more info there sorry...

No problem make. I did place the files there but it did not make a difference. There is an XML file that comes with each skin and I have a feeling you need to make your code aware of this XML (How? your guess is as good as mine.)

Hope you are keeping well. :D

Ok a look at the longtail site I found this..
If the skin has a swf file then you need to add this into the code If you are using a 1.0 Skin "skin=path/to/your/skin.swf" and If you are using a 2.0 Skin: skin=path/to/your/skin.zip this you would need to do manually it woulsd get placed in between the
<a href="player.swf" onclick="return hs.htmlExpand(this, { objectType: 'swf', swfOptions: {version: '8', flashvars: { file: '&file=$file$&skin=path/to/your/skin.swf or xml/>

Hi Baconfries,

I finally got some time and was studying your highslide extension in order to build a demo page of selectable FLVs. I need to ask some questions. I did read the associated help file. There are basically the image settings, the player settings and the main settings.

I want to create a demo page with say 12 thumbnails that play 12 different .FLVs. So I want say 8 thumbnails across the top (two rows of four), then the player beneath them - centered and let's say two thumbnails on either side of the player.

With the extension, I draw a rectangle. Is that just the player? How do I link the thumbnails to the player. I see the properties that can be defined in the extension but have not idea how the thumbnails relate to the player.

Can you shed some light on this for me?

Thanks much!!!

I'm sorry to hear about the "issues". You are always the best BaconFries, no apology necessary.

I would like to play with your extension but I just couldn't wrap my brain around how it worked. Specifically, I couldn't see how it allowed me to set up multiple thumbnails to relate to a video player. I got the extension, inserted it by drawing a box, and then checked properties to see how it works. That is about as far as I got in that I could see no way to hook thumbnails to the player.

thanks (and I hope things are better now).

Re: MULTI HighSlide JW Player DEMO

Post by bry »

I didn't take time to make it pretty. I just wanted to publish a demo of multiple highslide thumbnails to video. It is fairly simple. Just draw multiple highslide inserts. They can overlap. However, I discovered it is much easier if you draw out the highslide the same size as the thumbnail. It gives you a much better visual wysiwyg. And the extension allows you to size the thumbnail differently from actual. All my thumbnails were 200x300 but the default setting on the extension is 120x90 for the thumbnails and it automatically resized mine. However, I decided I wanted my larger thumbnails.

I didn't play with videos to take away black margins. But hopefully, you get the idea. You can have a page of thumbnails with just one video (or so it appears) - even though you have inserted many highslide extensions.

http://www.TEST12.info/folder1/multihighslidedemo.html

Thanks BaconFries!!!!

I hope it is obvious that you could have the whole page full of thumbnails and the appearance of just one video screen with a different video for each thumbnail. Naturally, you would size the thumbnails to divide equally into the page. In my case, I could have the page 900 wide with three thumbnails across (300x200) and if I wanted a page height of 1000, I would have thumbnails of 5 rows.

There is no need for any white space. The video goes away in between and you see the thumbnails. This is using BaconFries extension and nothing else is really needed. Well, if you want the videos to look nice and pretty (without black), you would create your FLVs with the right size (proportion).

Everybody understand? I hope so. Just ask if you don't.
