My occasional check-in on this topic…

Ninja Lead: any update on the location you posted to? I don’t have access to that.

I just set the permission view on this bug http://pm.joomlart.com/browse/JATCMUZIC-196 and remind our development team to fix this as well.

I noticed that this was updated to 1.0.2 recently. I looked at the changelog and it says that this responsive issue is closed – showing the text from my post here along with that, though it doesn’t say much in the way of details about it. I also downloaded and used this on another site for audio and the responsive parts worked. I was hopeful that it would work for video as well.

It still doesn’t.

I found two issues:

1. The original one I submitted here about this: the video does not respond
2. When I use articles that are in a category and use the category blog format, the video doesn’t show up on the list page, only when you go into the individual article. On the blog list page, it just shows a huge “play” icon that does nothing.

Any idea when #1 will be handled?

Am I missing something on the category blog page?

Thanks.

If possible, please send me the URL of your site, I will check further. I have tested our demo, it’s working fine with responsive layout.

I’m not sure what configuration you set on your site. You can generate JA Muzic Template using our demo builder tool to have a reference on the configuration for your site.

Yes – your demo works fine for the responsive, but when I simply add the component to a t3-framework base t3 template and add a video using the editor button to an article, the video is not responsive. There is obviously something happening different in the t3 template vs the music template, and it was noted at the beginning of this thread that it was a known issue. I don’t know if there is something special I’m supposed to be doing to make it responsive, but it seems like it should be just by adding it to an article, like regular images are.

Here’s an example. I’ve tried this with a width specified in pixels – not responsive
I’ve tried it with no width specified – not responsive
I’ve tried modifying the text plugin line that is created with a 50% width – horizontally responsive, but height doesn’t adjust.
I’ve tried it with 50% width and height “auto” specified and it just ends up being very small all the time. It responds, but not like you would expect it to. Initially it looks right (kind of short) but when you hit play, the actual video is tiny.

You can see all 4 examples here: http://t3v3.technicalrs.net on the Video Test menu item

As for the multiple videos on one page using the category blog, you can see the example of that on the video blog menu item. In this case, my issue with it went away – so no problem there. I don’t know what it was doing before on the other site I tried it on. However, in the category blog layout, you can actually see that the video list IS responsive, but as soon as you select one of the videos and go to single mode, the same issue as above exists there.

Thoughts?

I detected a problem that your site is fixed with width: 50% in video iframe. You don’t need to set width on this. Please change it to span tags.

Look at our demo, you see the video added with span tags, for instance:

<div class="span6">
// video script without width
</div>

span6 ~ width 50% will help to be automatically responsive with device layouts.

I am using the plugin parameters as noted above each video. The first two, as noted in the text, were set to a 50% width to see if this had any bearing – and actually, these are the only ones that respond at all. The bottom two examples are set either to a px width or no set width at all. In no case does the iframe get put in a div with a span-anything. In the examples here, these were done with youtube videos, but on the other site where I was having the issue, I was using local mp4 videos with no specified width there and they were just as non-responsive as the last example on this demo page.

What would the point of the simplicity of using a plugin be if I still had to go in a manually specify a div with a span6 or whatever?

I’m still not clear on why your demo site is responsive and mine is not, assuming that the plugin is just used to build the code FOR ME.

Thoughts?

We do not use any plugin fore responsive feature. JA Muzic just bases on Bootstrap framework (for css style) and all div tags are set with span tag which will be automatically responsive across device layouts.

Hope this article will help you learn more about Bootstrap responsive: here

Nijalead – I’m confused. I’m simply trying to use the plugin that is referenced in this thread that was an exclusive release with the Muzic template. If you are not using the plugin in this template, I don’t get it.

Also – I just built a demo of the Muzic template and went into one of the video articles, and here’s what I see in that article:


<p>{jamedia src="http://vimeo.com/29063494" type="video" mtype="vimeo" title="Hilfiger Session Madrid - Wyclef Jean featuring Javier Limon"}</p>


So – you are definitely using that plugin on the site. And this page IS responsive. And somehow there is a <div class=”span9″> around it, though this is clearly NOT in the article.

I understand the Bootsrap stuff and the responsive options – I build a lot of responsive sites for my clients using the Joomlart T3 framework. The demo site I put together to show this is just to point out that the template is responsive, but the video that gets embedded in it with the JAMedia plugin is NOT responsive.

I feel like I’m not getting my message across.

What am I missing here?

Here is format for JA AVTracklist and JA AVTracklist Button plugins to load the video from article.

<blockquote><p>{jamedia src=”http://vimeo.com/29063494″ type=”video” mtype=”vimeo” title=”Hilfiger Session Madrid – Wyclef Jean featuring Javier Limon”}</p></blockquote>

You need to install those plugins into the template if you wish to work with them.

The articles will be loaded from com_content or modules. Depend on the content type of that article it will load appropriate layout that we override in ‘com_content’ of this template, you can see ‘span9’ in one of layout file in this path: templatesja_muzichtmlcom_contentarticle

Note: I understand that I need to install the plugins to work with them. THAT’S HOW I CREATED THE PAGE! Sorry to yell, but I don’t seem to be getting through. My message is getting lost somewhere. And yes, I know that’s the plugin format: it’s automatically created by the plugin button and I obviously already have that in my article or I wouldn’t have had the videos in my demo page and the quote of the exact code in my post here.

I will certainly take a look at the com_content article override that you pointed out. Maybe this is what I was looking for the answer about, though I am still confused as to why this wouldn’t work in an article by default in the responsive mode t3 template.
