Can some one help me get this going? was created by Madscience
Hi,

I have installed the All videos plugin.

I have pointed it to the folder in which my video resides (.flv)
{don't know if it's pointing to the right location...

Do I add--->  www.mywebsite.com/filename.flv ??????

Or

Just the local path name : /home/content/j/a/s/xxxxxx/html/xxxxxx/images/stories/videos/filename.flv

Or

images/stories/videos/filename.flv

The video is not even showing any where... There is not even a selection
for where I want the video to show, (user1, user 2, etc etc...)

How can I get this to work?

I hope someone can please help me.

Thank you very much for your time.

I have my video files in my /images/stories/videos folder just to keep my samples in the same general area.  In the article I just have it formatted like this

{flv}ElwayLogoAnim{/flv}

Make sure to have your directory settings correctly spelled in the plugin parameters though.  Under my plugin parameters I have the path in the local video folder as follows

images/stories/videos

Everything works ok for me except for an error message due to some type of issue with Flash 10.  The movies will play but the error will pop up and confuse visitors unfortunately.

Please let me know if this was helpful.

I have got it to work using youtube... I just followed the instructions
on the documentation page and it worked....

But I can't get it going to serve my files on my local server....

I don't know why....

I have one hosting account for a few websites but I can't see that being the problem.

I did have it going kinda at one time but it wouldn't load the file cuz I changed the file name from .exe to flv not knowing you can't do this until a friend of mine told me i can't do that.... I hope i can figure out what is the problem.

I guess I just have to play around with the settings untill I find the right combination of settings.

Thanks for your input, I'll put your advice to test.
