DexterTheDragon

A WordPress plugin for converting uploaded videos to HTML5 format (h264, webm, ogv) and displaying them with the tag.
Dragon Video consists of 3 plugins:
<ul>
<li>Dragon Video</li>
<li>Dragon Video – Zencoder encoder</li>
<li>Dragon Video – VideoJS Player</li>
</ul>
Dragon Video is the core plugin. It handles interfacing with videos uploaded through WordPress, passing them off to an encoder, providing a shortcode to display the video, and enabling videos to be shown in the WordPress gallery. Dragon Video itself does not handle video encoding. WordPress actions are called for video encoding and display of the HTML5 tag allowing any desired encoder or player to be used.
Dragon Video – Zencoder encoder is a bundled encoder. It uses http://zencoder.com to encode uploaded videos to HTML5 media types. An API key is required to use.
Dragon Video – VideoJS Player is a bundled player using the http://videojs.com/ HTML5 video player.

Settings Configuration
It’s pretty easy to set up this video player plugin. Once you have installed the plugin simply navigate to the Settings menu where you will be able to configure some options. Mostly you just to need check the “Enable jQuery” option. That will allow the plugin to make use of jQuery library.
Embedding Shortcodes for the Videos
Now it’s time to finally embed a video shortcode. To do this create a new post/page and use the following shortcode:
<pre><code>[evp_embed_video url="https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/videos/myvid.mp4"]
</code></pre>
Here, url is a shortcode parameter that you need to replace with the actual URL of the video file.
Video Autoplay
If you want a particular video to start playing when the page loads, you can set the “autoplay” option to “true”:
<pre><code>[evp_embed_video url="https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/videos/myvid.mp4" autoplay="true"]
</code></pre>
Control Size
By default, the player takes up the full width of the content area. You can easily control the size by specifying a width for it:
<pre><code>[evp_embed_video url="https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/videos/myvid.mp4" width="640"]
</code></pre>
The height will be automatically determined based on the ratio (please see the “Control Player Ratio section” for details).
Control Player Ratio
You can override the default aspect ratio by specifying a different one in the shortcode:
<pre><code>[evp_embed_video url="https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/videos/myvid.mp4" ratio="16:9"]
</code></pre>
If the player does not support your specified aspect ratio it will load the default.
Video Loop
If you want a particular video to start playing again when it ends, you can set the “loop” option to “true”:
<pre><code>[evp_embed_video url="https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/videos/myvid.mp4" loop="true"]
</code></pre>
Video Player Template
If you want to use a different video player template, you can specify it in the “template” parameter:
<pre><code>[evp_embed_video url="https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/videos/myvid.mp4" template="mediaelement"]
</code></pre>
By default, the mediaelement template only loads the “metadata” of a video when the page loads. You can set it to “auto” or “none” with the preload parameter in the shortcode.
<pre><code>[evp_embed_video url="https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/videos/myvid.mp4" preload="auto" template="mediaelement"]
</code></pre>
