Hi :).

So you want to modify the “You need flash…” message on per-flash basis and want to display an image instead?

Possible is everything, it’s just a matter of time :). I’ll look if I can add something like that this week-end, but it should be available not later then next week (I’m home from thursday).

Just copy the URL displayed in the your browser’s address field and put it into the [flash …] tag, e.g.:

[flash https://uncutvideo.aol.com/videos/week/rating/551858e27cb28045c9c4c379707f99a8?index=0]

If it does not work, maybe AOL changed their URL syntax since the integration into the plugin and I’ve to adapt it. Give me a note then.

* edit: I made some changes to the detection now. If it wasn’t working yet for AOL UnCut, redownload the plugin, overwrite inc/inc.settings.php on your server with the new one from the archive and retry. It should work then.

The *.swf preview feature is by JW FLV Media Player and used for flv movies, mp3s, playlists, …

Flashbox does not have a *.swf preview, only text messages and images are supported. I don’t think that I will integrate such a feature in the near future.

The preview file for JW FLV Media Player is displayed before the flv plays – inside the player.

p.s.: Your code will not work properly, the shownavigation=false has to be bordered by f={}, like image=previewfile.swf.

edit: I have to correct the statement, that Google (Reader) shows flash / object tags. It does not. At least not my Google Reader. But FeedBurner does. ?? Google Reader plays mp3-links and similar.

So Google displays the “Open article” message, FeedBurner does not trim HTML tags and shows the flash. Offline-Readers should remove them, too.

“np”. ??

p.s.: Slimbox is “the same” as Lightbox, so for pictures. For movies, Flashbox is used. They don’t belong together. More information.

By the way, the option to define the message shown in feeds is actually no replacement in first case. If a reader does no interpret the <object> tag, he will/should display the message. Using Flashbox, the message replaces the link.

Feedburner allows/shows HTML in the feed, Google also does.

If it’s not working this way, I’ll look at it.

What is displayed instead of the alternate message? Nothing, the flash tag, the flash?

Using wmode=transparent is very buggy in all browsers. Therefore it’s not used in the plugin.

Anyway, to add it, you can/should use p={wmode;transparent} in the [flash] tag. See the Installation tab on the plugin page on this site for more information about the usage.

I suggest to use Slimbox instead of Lightbox. It’s fully compatible to Lightbox-tags and plugins using Lightbox. You can activated it in my plugin’s admin panel or download it from the plugin database on this site. On my websit, I use Slimbox and other objects are “disappearing” as long as the Slimbox is opend.

rc 5.0.3 should do this.

The TinyMCE-Popup should be automatically integrated/loaded. The button is a small black clapperboard.

Either the script inserting the button is not loaded or not fully executed.

Please open the Error Console in Firefox, delete it’s content and reload the page. If there is an error, please post it here.

If not, try a clean re-install of the plugin. If this doesn’t help, you maybe manipulated TinyMCE or you are using an older WordPress version.

Comes with the next version, thx for the hint!

As far as I see, pointing to localized.youtube.com does not bring any advantage (like localized player). But localized.youtube.com is now recognized by the script.

“np” :).

For function usage/reference, I propose to use the WordPress Codex.

Thx Otto42, I’ll change the call then! As said before, it worked somehow for me (as of plugins_loaded is used by others plugins I’ve installed, too, like Simple Tags).

To display a preview image inside the JW FLV Media Player (used for playback flv files), please use flashvars: f={image=…}.

The preview={} code is used for Flashbox only.
