Viper’s Video Quicktags

WordPress 2.9:

Yes, WordPress 2.9 features native easy embeds. However this plugin offers more customization than allowed without the plugin (player colors, etc.). It will work fine side by side with the new code and you can opt to use either embed method.

The plan for this plugin is to recode it from scratch to instead build upon the new embed API and allow for more customization. The new plugin will be backwards compatible and keep your current videos working.

Description:

Tired of copying and pasting the embed HTML from sites like YouTube? Then this plugin is for you.

Just simply click one of the new buttons that this plugin adds to the write screen (rich editor included) and then paste the URL that the video is located at into the prompt box — easy as that. You can fully configure how the videos are displayed (width, height, colors, alignment on the page) and much more. Your site will even stay (X)HTML valid unlike with the code provided by most video sites.

Currently supports these video sites:

As well as these file types:

  • Flash Video Files (FLV)
  • QuickTime (MOV, etc.)
  • Generic video files (AVI, MPEG, WMV, etc.)

You can also use the [flash] shortcode to Flash-based video from any website (see Help section after installing for details).

    The SWFObject call is added by a the_content filter. Try this instead:

    <?php echo apply_filters( 'the_content', $your_string_with_shortcodes_in_it ); ?>

    thanks! works really good although you need to be careful with the embedded player in tinymce it can mess it up (not the fault of your plug-in).

    Hi,
    Great plugin.

    You say you will be ditching the JW player for your WP 2.9 re-write….

    Will you still supporting it for the people who use your plugin and have a commercial licence for the JW player?

    Maybe you can have an option for people using different flash players to play FLV/MP4 files including the JW player upon installation of the plugin or a parameter in the admin section?

    Regards,
    Sam

    So with the release of Wordpress 2.9 today, will Viper’s Video Quicktags still work? I see that Wordpress has significantly improved their built-in embed capability, but it’s still not as robust as your plugin….

    I like your plugin, especially because it can do .flv files.

    I’m not sure that Wordpress 2.9 handles those.

    Thanks for your work!

    Hi
    am fairly new to wordpress, and have installed your plugin. It is really great and makes my job SO much easier!
    However I have added a post from youtube. it is called Troy Davis film by Amnesty International and can be found on my “film” page. The problem is, that my text below it, is being written over the video player! Can you tell me what to do?
    Many thanks

    Hey,
    first, thanks for taking the time for making us this plug-in… will donate (as soon as it works for me… lol).

    It says it will work with videopress (wordpress.com’s video player) but there isn’t a button there to embed videos from it.

    Thanks again,

    Pedro

  • #919 written by Viper007Bond

    In Reply To Pedro Serra:

    Correct. Just page in the WordPress.com-style shortcode, available from the upload screen or the embed dropdown.

    For example: [wpvideo gJ3Biv4q w=660 h=371]

    You’ve got an awesome plugin and I want to thank you for all that you’ve done over the last 3-4 years. Providing ample support for so long is nothing to sneeze at. :)

    I’d like to make a feature request: could you provide support for videos from Tangle? It was formerly called Godtube and was primarily used for “family-friendly” purposes. Alexa lists them as #3325 in the US.

    Thanks,
    Paul

    Ok this is a bit particular: If I am hosting flv files on my server, is it possible to use your plugin with relative urls? The image=”can-be-relative.jpg” but the movie file itself, I can’t work out the correct relative path. Is this even possible?

    I ask because I am working on a project that wil eventually need to work on a DVD and absolute file paths to a remote server won’t work out so well…

    Hi Alex,

    I found you by searching for a solution to WPMU stripping out video embeds. I had no idea! Went from WP to WPMU for strategic reasons (multi-blogs) .. there are some challenges! Now I discover video is one of them.

    Will your plugin work for TED.COM videos?

    We are launching Feb 1 and I need a solution. I am really hoping your answer is yes.
    TED.COM does provide a wordpress.com ID – [ted id=734] ( for URL – http://www.ted.com/talks/kartick_satyanarayan_how_we_rescued_the_dancing_bears.html )

    Looking forward to your reply!
    Thanks and cheers,
    Gil
    P.S. MU’s & WP 2.9x native easy embeds .. well .. leave much to be desired .. and I am being very polite here!

    No, my plugin doesn’t support TED, sorry. Perhaps in v7.0.

  • #930 written by Gil Namur 
    about 1 month ago

    Well well .. how embarrassing is that! A million apologies .. I had no idea.

    Thanks for responding!

    My beef is simply that from a strategic standpoint, video is probably paramount to most multi-blog environments. Rather than remove embeds for security reasons, there should have been a built in alternate to what WP offers.

    Again .. thanks for replying :-)
    I will for sure try your plugin!
    Cheers,
    Gil

    Only certain HTML tags are allowed in WPMU. This is for security reasons — i.e. I could embed a “video” from my malicious site and log IPs of people who visit my blog or whatever.

    Hello Viper,

    You plugin works great!

    But I’m encountering a problem so far in a website I’m building:
    Is there a way I can see the embed video also in my index.php page??
    I only see the embed videos in my single.php page, and I want them as well in the main page.

    Right now my main page only displays the code:
    [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ajhUMLXviUE&feature=fvw[/youtube]
    But if you click on the post, then it shows the video.

    Any clues??

    I’ll appreciate your answer.

    Thanks!!!

    Hello

    there is something wrong in your description above of embedding a flash video and also in the help section of the plugin.

    Instead of using [flash]…[/flash] you have to use [flv]…[/flv].

  • #938 written by Viper007Bond 
    about 1 month ago

    In Reply To Ralph:

    The [flash] tag is for directly embedding SWF files. The [flv] tag inserts a player that will play the passed video file (FLV/MP4/etc.). I should probably be more clear.

    Sorry if my question was already been answered, but what about Trailer Addict? (www.traileraddict.com)

    It’s a very famous website with many trailers and for someone who would like to share them in an easy way, would be perfect! Because in YouTube, they can delete videos or just disallow embeding, but in Trailer Addict, no :)

    Thank you

    You can convert the video to FLV and then use embed it that way. Or upload it to YouTube, Vimeo, etc.

    Simply put, embedding actual video files and getting them to work with all browsers and operating systems is really hard and will never work 100% correctly for everyone.

    As for LiveLeak, it looks like their URLs share a common video ID with their embed HTML, so it should be possible. I’ll consider it. :)

    Hello Viper,

    Well I finally tried your plugin in MU and had no luck with a blip video.
    Question – seeing as you wrote the native embed code.

    This – does not work (WPMU did not convert it as per http://codex.wordpress.org/Embeds
    http://www.blip.tv/file/3248592/

    This – does not work
    [embed]href=’http://www.blip.tv/file/3248592/[/embed]

    THIS does work … (regardless of alignment)
    [embed]href=’http://blip.tv/file/3248592/[/embed]

    Hey Viper ! I love your Quicktags Video plugin, its amazing and my site would be useless without it !

    A few questions I have for you :)

    1) Is it possible to have a “Dim Lights” feature. As in, you click the Dim Lights button and your entire site will get darker, except for the Video embed.

    2) So there are 2 sizes where people can watch videos. One size is the normal size that is embedded in the post, the other size is to FullScreen the video. Is it possible to have a “middle” size, as in, the video sort of pops-out in a medium size on your website ?

    Dim Lights example : http: //phoanime.com/anime/13411/Fairy-Tail/Episode-21-Part-2
    Pop-out player example : forgot where i saw it >_<
    (I put spaces after the http: )
