Stopped working 3 days ago, with the last upgrade. I asked for a link to the previous working version, so I could re-install it until the current version would work.
I shouldn’t need such hand-holding.
Got me thinking, maybe if an upgrade to any plugin, stops it from working, perhaps it might become useful, if a link was included to previously working versions for people, who really rely on the work that you great authors, do, that helps us with what we do.
Thank you.

Elementor suddenly stopped showing embedded YouTube videos. I tried everything to solve it, until I found ARVE, a lightweight and decent plugin that solved the problem. Just put the video URL in a shortcode and magic happens. God bless the ARVE team.

Just because people use your plugin doesn’t give you right to take up 1/3 of the dashboard with your stupid advertisement.
“Hi, this is Nico(las Jonas) the author of the ARVE Advanced Responsive Video Embedder plugin. If you are interrested in additional features and/or want to support the work I do on this plugin please consider buying the Pro Addon.”
Then proceeding to take up my dashboard with your “features”. I’ve seen plugins abusing the dashboard access before but none equals the wall of text that your plugin injects. Learn some basic decency before publishing a plugin. No, It doesn’t matter than it can be crossed out. It shouldn’t be there in the first place.
P.S. If you’re going to plaster someone’s dashboard with an essay advertising your pro version, at least spell check it. I’ll leave it to you to figure out where it is.

I have not been getting any invoices or receipt emails from NextGenThemes. I found out I was just billed when I was looking over my bank statement. A search revealed no emails in my email history, and no email in spam. Needless to say, I logged in and cancelled.

I use both Vimeo and YouTube videos on my websites and recently the Vimeo player has caused display and page speed problems. I purchased and tested the ARVE Pro player and it fixed the Vimeo issues and also works well with YouTube. It will be my standard video player going forward!

The free plugin works great, stay with the free version. If you go pro and need help, get ready to be insulted by the developer. Worse, the insults did not fix what the problem was.
I don’t pay people to insult me…
Any bets I don’t get my money back??
My issue was that it was not doing as it promised. The very reason I wanted to go pro. I needed the plugin to automatically fill out the description, the date, and pull the image from YouTube. The very things the “pro” version tells you are the key reasons you should go pro.
So I go to the support page that does not function properly. That kind of tells me what I was in for… And I fill out a support ticket.
Filling out is where I guess the developer gets his rocks off on. He wants you to tell him everything about your website, your programs, the other plugins, what you are using the plug in for, etc…
Imagine going to the dealership for your brand new car. Questioning why your left turn signal is not working and the first question the mechanic asks is “how many doors does the car have?” – Yea, what does knowing the number of car doors tell you why the turn signal is not working??
I have never had this kind of trouble with a 3rd party developer. Especially when the issue is for one of the core uses of that plugin.
The App developers I have worked with, and the few times I ever had an issue with a Pro version of a plugin, know the possible issues for their core uses and have a handy response. They figure most people using the plugin are not technology literate and want fast solutions to simple issues to even what may be simple to them.
Instead, with this developer, you get insulting replies if you have an issue with one of the basics parts of the plugin. How dare you have an issue for one of the highlighted reasons you should go Pro with this plugin!!
And again, you, the one paying him money, are getting insulting comments because you are asking a question from the developer. I guess it’s their version of saying “Thank You”
I use WordPress because it saves me time doing what I need it to do for myself and my clients. I don’t need to know the programing language and I don’t need to know what all is happening in the back end.
After all these years working around WordPress. I have a pretty good understanding of how it all works. But I don’t think I need to be certified in SQL or any other computer language to ask for help from the developer. And I don’t need to be insulted in any means for asking for support
But the developer of this plugin feels you need to know all this if you want HIS help in solving an issue with HIS plugin.
SO I quit using the program because it can’t be fixed and I have asked for a refund.
Now we can sit back and enjoy how he will respond with insults and accusations because I dared to ask for help!

Needed a video plugin that can display big. Ability to control display is great; lots of parameters that can be managed if desired. This plugin is awesome.

I’ve been using this plugin (free version and pro add-on) for a few years now. It works very well for my purposes (mainly lazyload and lightbox functionality). Recently I had a support issue with the new version which required some intervention – it was a conflict with my theme. Nico, the developer, went above and beyond to get a fix promptly sorted out for me. Thank you Nico.

This afternoon I have tried
Easy Video Player
FV Flowplayer
HTML5 Video Player
CP Media
SmartVideo
Super Video Player
Flowplayer Video Player
since updating Word Press has busted the media embedding in FAQ Responsive. (It was only playing sound and not video).
….AND THIS IS THE ONLY ONE WHICH WORKED. It’s simple to use and doesn’t have a water mark logo.

I love this plugin. It stops you being beholden to gatekeepers like YouTube and host your own video content on your own terms. Thanks to the Dev for keeping this going. Cheers !

I was using a paid video background plugin previously which ultimately proved really limiting. Switched to the free version of ARVE which worked great then to increase my site speed I upgraded to Pro mainly for the Lazy Load option. This made a big difference to load times especially for YouTube videos. At first I had an issue with the video thumbnails all reverting to a grey image. Contacted plugin author and quickly heard back with advice to look into possible CSS conflict. This was spot on. My hosting optimization plugin was combining CSS files together and turning this off solved the problem.
This a great plugin and thumbs up too for the support – obviously a creator that cares sincerely about the quality of their work.

This excellent little plugin gives you one place to set display elements and ensure that any embedded video content is displayed in the perfect layout for all viewers ??

There are many options to choose from when you want to show videos inline. With PageLayer ARVE works great, I am now testing it under different conditions. But again, it works amazing.
I think that most WordPress users tend to underestimate all freemium efforts. Before buying a plugin, I squeeze it until realizing it’s a smart move. Said that, plugin developers appreciate each purchase, but also every review.
I recommend it, try it, compare it to other good ones, and, at the end you will land here to thank these people.

ARVE Pro is the best solution I know of for embedding video content. I’m using it now for several years, being really satisfied. Pretty good support, by the way, as well.
Works even with cookie management plugins like Borlabs Cookie to fulfill the requirements of GDPR and recent ECJ ruling about cookie consent.

We migrated many days of recorded lectures into this so we could host it within our new LMS and it has been working great. These are a back up for folks that miss a live/livestream class so haven’t needed additional pro features but has been great for what we needed.

The people that maintain this plugin do a terrible job of responding to questions. I’ve found them to be argumentative and aggressive. There are many plugins that provide this basic function, I’d recommend looking elsewhere.

We spend many hours with this plugin and spend the time for nothing…
We tried to use classical block – buttons doesn’t appear at all!
Yes, I can write a html code manually – it works but when we checked it with google structured date, it shows errors at least, “A value for the thumbnailUrl field is required”. Cool! And… if will write a code manually for dozens videos why I need this plugin bc I can do it by myself…
Bravo!

I’ve used and tossed dozens of plugins to attempt to correct responsive layouts on embedded videos and this was the only one that worked.
