Best Wordpress Plugin To Embed FLVs & MP4s?

[maccsta]

Using some flash embeded code at the moment on WP but its not showing up on Android browser and I guess in iOS also.

I presume I need an html5 video plugin? Whats the best?

I've been looking for the same thing for the last couple of weeks. Right now I am testing http://wordpress.org/plugins/fv-wordpress-flowplayer/

I think that the choice comes down to either FlowPlayer of JW Player, and finding the best plugin. In my case, I am looking for most basic one, so I can combine it with in-video ads from Exoclick, AdXpansion, Juicy Ads, and Ero Advertising.

I am still looking, so there might be a better way to do this.

Ok thanks. I was trying JW Player http://wordpress.org/plugins/jw-play...for-wordpress/ but having trouble getting it to work properly.

Any others?

[maccsta]

This is the embeded flash code I am using with JW player:

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://www.mydomain.com/flvplayer/player.swf" width="480" height="320" name="player" id="player">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.mydomain.com/flvplayer/player.swf" />
<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" />
<param name="allowfullscreen"   value="true" /> 
<param name="flashvars"value="file=http://www.mydomain.com/video.flv&image=/wp-content/uploads/picture.jpg"/>
</object>

Is there a way to transform this code and make it work on Android browsers & iOS?

I was just looking for a plugin to do this the other day. I'm not sure if it'll work on android and ios (haven't tested it yet) but I'm using the plugin KVS FLV player with their shortcode.

I was trying another plugin also. This is what I got from Flowplayer support:

ttp://wordpress.org/support/plugin/flowplayer5

Is it possible to use this plugin to play .flv files?

>>>

no. It's purely aimed at html5 video so far. Since the plugin's "send to editor" depends function depends on a video being previewable in html5 mode, you're our of luck with flv here.

You could still directly embed flv by putting somehting like

<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="http://releases.flowplayer.org/5.4.1/flowplayer.min.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://releases.flowplayer.org/5.4.1/skin/minimalist.css" />
<div style="max-width: 624px;" class="flowplayer"><video><source src="http://some.domain.org/bla.flv" type="video/flash"></video></div>

in the textarea editor.

I guess

I've tried this one already. It has quite a lot of files and takes a lot more disk space than Fv Wordpress Flowplayer (as a comparison). Do you know how to add in-video ads to Hana Plugin (I should be ok with displaying different ad code depending on the domain name, but I did not spend too much time figuring out where to put the ad code)?

hana-flv-player.3.1.2 -> 2.82MB
fv-wordpress-flowplayer -> 1.37MB (both zipped)

I, again, look for something as little as possible that plays mp4 and flv, and what I can combine with in-video ads from the four ad networks.

It looks like it is possible to add Flowplayer to Wordpress without using a plugin:

I am using Video Embed & Thumbnail Generator. Not sure how it works on mobile devices though. I can't post the URL since I'm new with less than 30 posts under my belt, but do a search for it through your WordPress plugin manager screen in the admin panel.
