• videourl
  
  • url of the video
    
  • can be any FLV Flash video (.flv) or any H.264 coded video (.mp4, .m4v, .mov, .3gp)
    
  • Note - for H.264 coded videos Flash Player 9.0.115 or higher is needed (update the minimum Flashplayer version for this in the HTML file)
    
  • NOTE - the video url must be always relative to the main krpano swf file!!!
    this is a flashplayer bug and there unfortunately no way to fix it,
    see here: http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-1194

  • "true" or "false", default="false"

  • has only an effect when the video is played as distorted hotspot!
    
  • when set to "false":
    
    • the video frame will be only refreshed/updated when flash reports "there is a new frame"
      
    • this reduces the cpu load but in situations where the flashplayer has much work to do, this can cause frame skipping (e.g. while moving in the pano)
      
    • so use "false" with care!

  • check the pause state of the video

I have a question. I'm playing with the example I'm using cats-short.flv. I'm trying to fit it in a wide screen tv. I am able to get the correct height but I cannot stretch it without increasing the height. In other words its always a square. How do I make it a rectangle? Im adjusting rx, ry, rz and it just seems to be tilting the video, also tried adjusting width and height but nothing. I guess I just dont understand these attribute completely. Can anyone enlighthen me? *smile*

Quoted from "tangelder"

Is it also possible to play a flv video in reverse with the videoplayer?

Quoted from "Felipeca"

I'm programming my first pano with video embedded. I am testing it on my desktop (haven't upload yet to web) and after adding control buttons my video doesn't always load. When it loads, it works fine.

Any suggestion?

But I don't remember if it was the last video plugin.

Quoted from "rzayevt"

Is it possible to loop specific range of video, for example the lenght of video is 10 seconds. When pano is loaded, I want the first 5 seconds of the video to be played loop (so the loop is from 1st to 5th seconds of the total video lengh). Then, after a short period of time I want the video to continue from 5th second and play until 10th second and also loop.
Is it possible?

Quoted from "nick"

i also ran in the path issue with the relative urls - i think there is a workaround, see http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-1194
if that is a solution, is it possible to update the plugin?
