I would like to insert a “embedded” video into one of my articles. With All Videos Reloaded I can do this. I would also like to use Highslide on a Pop-Up video inside a few articles.

My Questions is..What path name do I use to upload my .FLV Video files or my .SWF video files for embedding or Highslide pop-out ? If I put my videos into Videos folder that is recommended then they will play in Playlist becuase the Playlist.php is in the Video folder. I would like to have both the video playlist and the ability to use videos embeded and highslide.

Thanks for any help!

Ok, What if I do not want some of my Videos like my emedded article videos or a few highlside videos to play in Playlist on Front page? What folder should I use? Should I create a new media folder path in Gobal Configuration under Media?

Hi sbaldwin !
if you want some video doesn’t display in playlist in frontpage , you create new folder to stores them , then in highslide form you add link to point to them following format below :

<a onclick=”return hs.htmlExpand(this, { objectType: ‘iframe’,outlineWhileAnimating: true, preserveContent: false, width:425, height:355 } )” href=”[path to video]” class=”video”> </a>

Hi Hainn,
Please note I chnaged the link below. I’m getting closer to getting it to work but the video does not play! I’m using an .swf file for the video and it just shows a black space for video. Here is the URL and the link in the article is “Ways to de-stress”. The video link is called “TEST” at the bottom of the article.

I created a NEW folder under images/stories/demo/video and placed the .swf file under video.

http://webstercommunity.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=85:ways-to-de-stress-when-the-kids-are-sick&catid=56:familyfitness&Itemid=174

here is the code I used;

><a class=”video” href=”images/stories/demo/video/Villa.swf” onclick=”return hs.htmlExpand(this, { objectType: ‘iframe’,outlineWhileAnimating: true, preserveContent: false, width:425, height:355 } )”>TEST</a>

Thanks for any help!

Hmmm…I just thought of something. Do my Video files (.swf) need to be published as Flash 9 perhaps? I have an older version of Macromedia and can only save/publish my videos in Flash8 .swf.

If the built-in Highslide needs Flash 9 .swf to play Pop-Out video, could that cause the problem?

Hi Hainn!
The .swf file you sent me worked! See test link at bottom of article. http://www.webstercommunity.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=85:ways-to-de-stress-when-the-kids-are-sick&catid=56:familyfitness&Itemid=174
Now the question is…. why aren’t my videos working?:confused:

Hi Hainn!
One last question on the Videos. For code you gave me:

<a onclick=”return hs.htmlExpand(this, { objectType: ‘iframe’,outlineWhileAnimating: true, preserveContent: false, width:425, height:355 } )” href=”[path to video]” class=”video”> </a>

Can I use .FLV file instead of .swf file for Pop-out Highslide Videos in the href= path? A sample would be:
<a onclick=”return hs.htmlExpand(this, { objectType: ‘iframe’,outlineWhileAnimating: true, preserveContent: false, width:425, height:355 } )” href=www.xxx.com/images/stories/demo/video.flv” class=”video”> </a>

Thank you again!

Hi sbaldwin !
I don’t make sure that about this case when use flv file. I have gone to highslide site ( http://highslide.com/ ) and view sample of it and see a format below :


<a class="highslide" onclick="return hs.htmlExpand(this, { objectType: 'swf', contentId: 'highslide-html-10',
allowSizeReduction: false, wrapperClassName: 'highslide-white', outlineType: 'rounded-white',
outlineWhileAnimating: true, preserveContent: false, objectWidth: 300, objectHeight: 250} )" href="Flash.swf">
Display flash
</a>


Please try to use obove format and change “swf” to “flv” , “Flash.swf” to your flv file.
