Newbie - multiple jw players Joomla

3 replies [Last post]

My Joomla web designer has abandoned me. And I don't fully understand code. Please, I need an easy solution of displaying multiple videos (Jw player 4.4.192)

Using Joomla, if I use this command {loadposition vid1} and {loadposition vid2} The first video is the only one displayed.

How do I get both videos on the screen?
I would like to use a playlist, but that's way over my head.

Thank you.

Hi,

This is Ethan from LongTail here to help you.

Can you link me to where you are running our player on your site so I can take a look at your implementation so I can better help you?

Chances are, the Joomla component you are using is using swfobject and it is trying to write the players all to the same space, so you may have to tweak the code of the component.

Please email me directly at ethan [at] longtailvideo [dot] com to follow up if you have any other questions, thank you.

Best Regards,
-Ethan

I'm also trying to accomplish the same thing (sort of). I have a column of images that I'd like to use to play a short sample from each, roughly corresponding to the text in the right column.

I copy and paste code from the setup wizard, paste a second modified instance (and so on), but each new sample replaces or overlays the last.

The original image-only page is here:

The page with a single swf is here:

New at this, so thanks in advance!

Oh, and anyone know why the audio won't play on a single click (Safari 4, Mac)? I get a spinning graphic then click twice again to hear the clip. It's an 815k mp3 file. Other browsers seem to handle it differently.

Thanks again.
