Does someone has solution for this?

I want to display some related videos (picture+link) like Yuotube does,
after the main video has finished to play.

Now way to do it, I see by creating postroll video file which get all this things through variables, and putting it into playlist.

Problem is that I'm not so experienced in Flash programming, to do this.

Is some alternative way to implement this?

please see the [url=http://home5.inet.tele.dk/nyboe/flash/mediaplayer/redirectrelated.htm]redirectrelated[/url] demo on the [url=http://home5.inet.tele.dk/nyboe/flash/mediaplayer/]demopage[/url] (requires no flash editing, html/js only!)

it is ofcourse not a full system, but it shows some simple methods that you can use for this...

thanks so much that really helped me out

i'd like to do something like this as well. instead of redirecting in an iFrame, is there a way to have the flvplayer load an swf when the video is done playing?

@Paxton,

Adobe has a sample on their site [url=http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/video_player.html]Creating a Dynamic Playlist for Streaming Flash Video[/url] but some Flash programmer would have to massage it a bit to be usable. I did load it into the JW Player and it almost works...

thanks for the tip. how did you load it into the player?

Am working on a "related videos" endscreen ... 3.13

killer! it'd be dope to just have it open ended. like a parameter that would load a file into the player after the video is done. that way you could load up and related links slide, or an image, or whatevahs.

keep up the good work jeroen. you're rocking the best flv player out there.

Next week, I'm shooting for the 13th ...

Is this feature now available? I'm a paying customer and would LOVE to see this!

I´m using the version 3.16 and I want to make something like this? could you help me?

I don´t know what parameters need to use..........

I would also be really happy to see 'related videos' thing integrated into JW player and I'll surely turn into a paying customer for that feature. I think we need it inbuilt with the player.

better get it done soon youtube is blocking users by the thousands..

This is still on the 'todo' list!

I'm looking for basic information on the "related videos identification process". On my sites we got a lot of videos, I'm trying to figure out an algorithm to identify the related videos. Any tips?

Thx

@Seb,

Shouldn't this really be written as a plugin? I got my plugin to display when I pause or when the video finishes.

I feel like a star...

@Sean: ;)

And indeed, this will be a plugin. Hopefully, there'll be a couple of different plugins.

So ideally a plugin will just take a (pre-defined) flashvar and pass it to a (pre-defined) dynamic xml that will return the related's playlist. Like so...

You could parametrize the xml path in a flashvar as well.

flashvars="xmlPath=reco.php,xmlPathVar1=vid_id,xmlPathVal1=112,xmlPathVar2=type,xmlPathVal2=2"

and the plugin would request 'reco.php?vid_id=112&type=2'

Anyone see any problems with this?

The display could also be skinned...

Has there been any further progress on this??
I would sooooooooo love for this feature to be added to my video players.

i love dis

Whats wrong with the d-related plugin?
