Workflow Script/Program for embedding Flash videos?

[Andre]

Can someone suggest a program or a script that will let me embed a .flv or .mp4 into html without having to any html editing?

I also need WordPress plugin that does that?

Any suggestions please?

that would be nice. the question is what is the best way for it to work?
you have an option to set the flv player. then you just need to post the flv url and thumb url. these would be displayed under ever post box? or would it be better if it worked like nextgen gallery? you insert a code into the post so you can position where the video is positioned?

I'm not quite sure what you guys are talking about, but this is what I do for Wordpress, using the Flash Video Player Plugin:

Open wp-includes/js/quicktags.js in your favourite editor and add this:

edButtons[edButtons.length] =
new edButton('flv_video_input'
,'flv'
,'[flashvideo file="&image=http://www.urlofposterimage.jpg" /]'
,''
,''
);

When you create a new post, you'll now have an flv quicktag. Click it. Add your video url before "&image" and the poster image after "image="

To position your video, replace:

,'[flashvideo file="&image=http://www.urlofposterimage.jpg" /]'

with:

,'<div class="flvposition">[flashvideo file="&image=http://www.urlofposterimage.jpg" /]</div>'

and add a .flvposition entry to your style.css file

I think what hes getting at is a plugin if you have a blog and have multiple posts something that would be quicker

I dunno. He's not coming back to clarify.

With that quicktag - or, rather, the same quicktag modified to suit my theme - I enter the flv url in a custom field, and the thumb url (which doubles as the poster image) in another custom field.

Add a description anf post title. Takes about 10 seconds to add a video.

I don't have it automated because I like to grab my own thumbs and write my own descriptions.

I'll try to be more clear...

Problem 1: Currently to add an .flv video to a gallery I edit the html by adding path to the video, video file name, name of the screen grab, etc. Would be nice to have some sort of an app that has an interface that does that for you. I would just say, add flv, use a Windows selector to choose video file, image file and done.

Problem 2: I have a WP blog and want to add an .flv to my textual post by doing the same as above. Click a button to select a file, image and save.

Any solutions through plugins?

I have something coming shortly. I'm spending the day revamping major portions of it, before moving onto the actual marketing features. Basically though, after today:

• Full, easy to use media manager including streaming of audio & video. Upload any video format, it gets converted into FLV for you, needed thumbnails generated, and if needed resized.
• Easily place video in your site with a simple tag like {cms_media media_id="43"}
• Supports multiple domains & landing pages, allowing you to easily maintain multiple sites from a single control panel. Will create DNS & Apache records for all domains for you.
• Supports ad / media sets, so for example, say you have one ad set that contains 5 media sets, each of which has 10 FLV videos and 60 images. Each media set is linked to a sponsor you promote. Easily place those 10 FLVs and 60 images throughout your network of sites, and with the click of a mouse, switch which media set is being displayed / sponsor is being promoted.
• Obviously, within the next few days, will have nice stats & conversion graphs for you guys, showing media set / sponsor is doing the best, which domains & landing pages are doing the best, etc.
• Will fully support Wordpress themes. Just upload the Wordpress theme .zip file into the admin panel, it'll be converted as needed, and ready to go on your domain.
• Plus loads of other cool shit.

I've developed loads of custom marketing systems for clients before, so have a good idea of what people are looking for. If anyone is interested in getting in on the trials, or wants more info / demo, e-mail me at troywilk [at] gmail.com.
