Podcast Plugin - FLV and media files
Posted: Tue Mar 03, 2009 1:47 am
Hello,
I'm trying to get the Podcast plugin to function correctly and I'm not having much luck. I followed the instructions for the FLV player but any FLV that is posted either directly from the admin side of from an email is posted as just a link. I put the player in:
/plugins/serendipity_event_podcast/player
renamed player.swf to flvplayer.swf
Then tried uploading a flv, linking to a flv file and emailing in an FLV but all I get is a link in the entry. I'm sure it's an easy fix but I'm just not seeing it.
What about other formats? Can they be played inline within the post?
Overall, I really just want a user to be able to experience on the fly along with having the content downloadable.
I'm probably going to mainly aiming for itunes users and other other aggrigators so I suppose MPG (maybe x.264) would be the best format for video and mp3 for audio. Any advice on that would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Derek
