i am looking for a way to define in a playlist a default video to be played first – differently to the 1 video in list.
this should be something like “first-video-to-play=”video_id””

Hello Meir,
Thank you for reaching out to us!
There is currently no such shortcode parameter.
The order of videos in the playlists follows the order in which they are written in the shortcode. Is this not a viable solution for you? What is your reasoning for requesting this feature?
I will notify our programmers about your request, but I do have some bad news for you. If they’d like to go ahead with it, it would definitely be done as a custom development, as not many, if any, of our users would be interested in this feature. Especially as most use the visual editor.
Thanks,
Maria
Hello Meir,
please try to add
playlist_start="2"into your shortcode and let us know if it works for your purpose.Thanks,
Martin
YES it WORKS
AMAZING
thanks!why this shortcode do not appear in shorcodes list?
after using with success the “playlist_start” parameter, i realize now that the splash (playlist preview image) is still took from the first video image.
is there a way to make the playlist preview image to be according to “playlist_start” parameter?
it should be a parameter like playlist_splash that overrides the first video splash …
please, waiting for a response
Hello Meir,
I think it should just pick the right splash image based on
playlist_start="2"argument, we will look into it.Thanks,
Martin
bsd
ok, waiting for the fix.
Hello Meir,
the splash screens actually already respect the
playlist_startargument of the shortcode.Are you perhaps using the legacy shortcode style?
[fvplayer src="..." playlist="...;...;..."]If so, please let us know what’s the reason for it?
Otherwise there must be some other cause.
Thanks,
Martin
yes, i am using legacy fvplayer, because i create a dynamic playlist shortcode by php from my episodes playlist metafields database (thousands of videos)
something new?
please , waiting for answer when the issue should be solved
Hello Meir,
Could you please reinstall FV Player from this link? https://github.com/foliovision/fv-wordpress-flowplayer/archive/refs/heads/5228070264-playlist-start-splash.zip To do that you will have to first deactivate and delete the current FV Player plugin you are using. WordPress will warn you that you might loose settings and data, but it’s not the case with our plugin, no settings now videos will be lost. Or you can just replace the plugin files via FTP.
Then it should work for you. Please let us know and we can make it part of the next FV Player release.
Thanks,
Martin
YES!
seems to work perfectly
thanks a lot!!!!!
