Flash Video Player

The flash video plugin for WordPress allows the addition of video (and other media) to a WordPress website using standards-compliant markup and the leading open source software (Jeroen Wijering’s FLV Player and Geoff Stearns’ SWFObject Javascript Library). A full options menu is available with post-level overrides for endless customization. Installation is quick and easy, and no additional setup/coding/php knowledge is required. This plugin is low footprint, creating no tables, and uninstalling cleanly. Version 5 provides full support for skinning the player, integration with Google Analytics, and the capability to display ads from LongTail Solutions.

3. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
4. That’s it! You’re done. You can now enter the following into a post or page in WordPress to insert a video: [flashvideo file=video/video.flv /]

I have activated the plugin, but don’t see the video player. What do I do?

Check and make sure that you have the appropriate hook in your template file for the header: <?php wp_head(); ?>
