Hello,
I'm using the "Glow" skin Video player, with Sharing option "overlay with video link, embed code and Facebook/Twitter buttons". The issue is the link that is shared is pointing to http://content.bitsontherun.com/previews/XXXX not www.my-wordpress-site.com/permalink. Here's a screenshot of the issue http://screencast.com/t/qaro9hhGzd.
How do I get the sharing link to match up the permalink on my Wordpress site? Is there a way this can be automated? Thanks in advance for any help.
Thanks for your speedy response.
Is it possible to just have Embedding being the only Sharing option? In Players > Player Properties > Sharing it seems to not be an option.
On a semi-related note, is it possible to use JW PLAYER plugins on "Bits on the Run"? I'm thinking of using a plugin like http://www.longtailvideo.com/addons/plugins/110/Sharing?q=embed to solve my problem
i guess this answers my question http://www.longtailvideo.com/support/forums/bits-on-the-run/videoplayer/23898/custom-plugin-with-emb...
Is it at least possible to customize the Video link page? I'd like to put my site logo on it with a link back to my site. Is this doable?
The "link" property in your video details will be the link shared in the sharing plugin, as I explained before. It is also possible to add a logo and link to your player.
You would have to set the link property of a video to the permalink of the wordpress post. This can only be done from the Bits on the Run dashboard I'm afraid.
Please note that changing the link will break playback in the facebook wall, unless you add the open graph headers from the preview page to the headers of your post. Unfortunately there is no way to do that with our Wordpress module.
