Hello Maria,

Is it a must to have the FV player shortcode embedded in the post content section of the page?

I use a template I don’t use the default post content area to store my content. I use custom fields.

Can you advise?

Hello Maria,

Thanks for your reply.

I see the approach to the shortcode using the embed, but can it work with a sample shortcode that follows?

‘[fvplayer splash="customfield.jpg" src="customfield.mp4" qsel="true" width="100%" height="100%" autoplay="false" speed="buttons"]‘

Thanks

Hi Martin,

Sounds like a nice solution. I’ll keep an eye out for this update.

Thanks so much, I am able to see stats.

Hi,

Yes I had this setting on as well.

Please check this link for an example: https://clevered.gd/courses/interpersonal-skills/lesson/communication-skills/

Hi Martin,

Noted.

I enabled the Force HD Streaming setting and it takes a long time for the player to appear. Just about 10 seconds before the player loads. Is this a known issue when Force HD Streaming is enabled?

Can you please advise?

Thanks,

Hello Martin,

Thanks for the note. I had the chance to check it out.

I see that it remembers the quality I choose. Nice!

I was wondering, is there a filter or hook to over ride the default 30 seconds quality switch? Or maybe even force a particular quality to begin with?

I’m thinking maybe after 10 seconds I can show a 720p video or something of that nature.

Is it possible to do this? Can you please advise? Thanks!

Hi Chiara,

Thanks for reaching out.

I just had the chance to check and it seem as though the issue is still the same (No collapse of the transcript). Meanwhile I have it hidden.

Is there a way I can submit the link and screenshot privately?

Kindly advise. Thanks.

Hello Chiara,

Thanks for clearing things up. Is it a beta feature? Because when I am on desktop and I click to toggle it doesn’t work on my end. But it works on mobile.

Hi Martin,

Yes that will be good too. But it is also overlapping the video player. This update should provide that fix as well?

Thanks for your response.

I’ll open a Pro support for this.

Hi Martin,

I’ve been having some issues with getting the video to play and then pause based on the time stops passed in to the player via some custom fields.

So this is my sample code and explanation below :

jQuery(document).ready(function(){
  if( typeof(flowplayer) != "undefined" ) {
    flowplayer( function(api,root) {
      api.bind('ready', function() {});

      var paused = false;
      api.bind('progress', function(e,api,time) {

        var timepause = jQuery('.my-custom-popup-content').data("attr");
        var fixtime = time.toFixed();

        if( !paused && fixtime == timepause ) {
          api.pause();
          paused = true;
          alert("Hello! I am an alert box!!");
        }  
      });
    }); 
  }
});

So lets say the time stops 10 and 20 were passed through the “my-custom-popup-content” data attribute. When the video reaches 10s it pauses at the first instance, the alert is triggered and upon closing the video resumes. However it doesn’t popup for the 20s time stop or any other subsequent time stops. Am I using the right set of functions to get the job done?

Kindly advise, Thanks.

Good day,

I’m looking into a hook to resume the video after it has been pause.

I’ve already went ahead to pause the video when the player reaches to a specific time. The user will be required to click some html that will trigger a resume. However, we’re not seeing a hook for resume. Can you please let me know if there’s a hook for this feature?

I’m also attaching some lines of code below of what we came up with to pause and display our custom html using the FV player. Hope it’s a bit useful to explain our case.

//Pause video on timestamp
add_filter( 'fv_flowplayer_inner_html', 'my_fv_player_custom_popup');

function my_fv_player_custom_popup($html) {

    if( have_rows('video_settings_basic_video_settings_overlay_content') ):
        while ( have_rows('video_settings_basic_video_settings_overlay_content') ) : the_row();

        $videostop_value = get_sub_field('video_time_stop_2');
        $pull_over = get_sub_field('pull_over_content_2');

    $time = $videostop_value;
    $timeArr = array_reverse(explode(":", $time));
    $seconds = 0;
    foreach ($timeArr as $key => $value)
    {
        if ($key > 2) break;
        $seconds += pow(60, $key) * $value;
    }
    $timeInSeconds = $seconds;
  $html .= "<div class='my-custom-popup' data-attr='".$pull_over."/?botframe=on'><div class='my-custom-popup-content' data-attr='".$timeInSeconds."'></div></div>";
 
  endwhile;

else :


endif;

 
  return $html;
}

Thanks.

Kendell

Ahh

Thanks Martin. Understood.

I’m able to take it from there.

Thanks Juraj Kacaba,

Looking forward to it.

Thanks for the reply.

Just to confirm- Using the Flowplayer ready event, is the video tracking feature applied automatically? Because I’d like to prevent users from seeking through the video to finish.

Kindly let me know.

Hi Martin,

Will that support be for a single fix?

Kindly advise, thanks.

Hello Martin,

Thanks for the filter.

However, after making the beta switch it seems to break the transcription UI. Please see link below.

Thanks.

Thanks @Sylvain and @Martin,

I’ve managed to get the basic setup working with my self hosted video. I’m using the Publitio platform (https://publit.io/) to serve my video to the player.

I’m assuming the video have to be encoded on the fly to get the HLS working?

Hi Martin,

Thanks for your reply.

The transcript for the video works as you mentioned, what i’m not able to get working is the timestamp (Kindly see picture in the link below)

https://www.dropbox.com/s/vrswjnlai9ss3ks/timestamps.PNG?dl=0

Thanks for clearing things up abit.

I’ve played around with the css you provided and manged to get the transcript on the right of the player.

However, when using the

transcript=""

tag in the player shortcode i’m able to get the search and search results navigation buttons showing. I am not able to get time-stamps to go with the words of the transcript. Can the transcript tag handle that functionality?

Kendell
