Hi Ganesh, unfortunately to my knowledge VLC does not offer a web player version, whereas JWPlayer is built specifically for displaying video in web pages. In other words, there are alternatives to JWPlayer but VLC ain't one. Guillaume On Tue, Jul 30, 2013 at 12:16 PM, Ganesh M <mganeshanece(a)gmail.com> wrote:

Is there any alternative Player for JWPlayer? Because I am great fan of VLC Player. Is it possible to Integrate VLC or some other player into Xwiki? If YES then how to do it?

Technically if the user has the VLC plugin it can be used to display videos: http://www.videolan.org/doc/vlc-user-guide/en/ch07.html This can be done with the embed tag as shown in this example: <html> <head><title>Demo of VLC mozilla plugin</title></head> <body> <h1>Demo of VLC mozilla plugin - Example 1</h1> <embed type="application/x-vlc-plugin" name="video1" autoplay="no" loop="yes" width="400" height="300" target="http://server.example.org/video1.vob" /> <br /> <a href="javascript:;" onclick='document.video1.play()'>Play video1</a> <a href="javascript:;" onclick='document.video1.pause()'>Pause video1</a> <a href="javascript:;" onclick='document.video1.stop()'>Stop video1</a> <a href="javascript:;" onclick='document.video1.fullscreen()'>Fullscreen</a> </body> </html> However this is not a great solution for embedding videos as many users might not have the plugin installed and it's a pain to detect which plugin who has. This is why we use solutions like JWPlayer which are more "compatible" with all users Ludovic 2013/7/30 Guillaume Lerouge <guillaume(a)xwiki.com>

Anything wrong with the JWPlayer macro :) ? (besides the fact that it uses an older version 5.9.2156, but I can fix this; current version is 6.5.3609) Thanks, Marius

Hi Sometimes if the file size is too large, it gets broken. I have an attachment of 600MB(I increased the attachment file size limit) if I dont have an active internet connection i am not able to view the video. If I again enable the internet connection(enabled proxy) it works fine. Can you please try to update the newer version may be i ll try the newer version ll see if it fixes the problem. Because I want to use this on the local intranet.I should be able to view the vides without an internet connection also. Thanks for your reply.

Yes Dumitriu, Xwiki is hosted in the internal intranet server. I disabled outside connection to the internet(google). And also In JW Player there is no option to directly give the network path in the present version e.g I dont want to attach the video to the current page.

Did you try the new version? The main parameter is still named "attachment" for backwards compatibility but it supports paths (that begin with /) or URLs (scheme://...). How does the network path look like? I any case, modifying the JW Player macro to support such a path should be easy as long as the browser can fetch it.

As I said, you need to make sure the browser can access the file. Try creating a link: {{html}} <a href="/IpAddress/Navi_General/TrainingVideos/Newfile.flv">Video File</a> {{/html}} Does it work? I doubt it. You need to figure out what to put in the href attribute. Once you find out, you should be able to use the same URL with the jwplayer macro.

Hi Ganesh. What is the server on which you host the video ? Apache ? IIS ? Or is it just a file in a shared folder ? -> If it is a HTTP server, you may try: http://IpAdress/Navi_General/TrainingVideos/Newfile.flv -> If it is a shared folder: file://IpAdress/Navi_General/TrainingVideos/Newfile.flv I hope it helps! Louis-Marie 2013/7/31 Marius Dumitru Florea <mariusdumitru.florea(a)xwiki.com>

This is the network path that I tried to include in a page {{jwplayer attachment="/Ip Address/Navi_General/TrainingVideos/Newfile.flv"/}} But it shows an error message" Error loading media File not found Can you please help me resolve it?
