The following outlines a number of ways you can personalize your player:
Custom player options
(Using Flowplayer)
Splash image
That black screen before your video – pretty boring, huh? How about an image of your choice?
Control bar
• Skinning: Alter the colour or look of the control bar.
• Custom text: Create custom control bar tool-tips visible when your mouse is moved over top.
• Background image: One of the most distinctive ways of personalizing the player involves adding a background image for the control bar. This is a great defence against a look that is…well, boring.
Container background
This feature allows you options limited only by your imagination. You can create an image to house your video. Simply click the video within the image to start the video playing! You can also position the screen, the control bar and every other plug-in any way you like!
Rounded corners
Create a whole other look with subtle rounding in the edges of the player canvas.
Logo
• Mouseover: Your logo will display when a mouse is moved over top of the player.
• Floating: Want your logo visible throughout?
Forced First Video
If you want your first video viewed, without fail, this is your option. It cannot be paused and the control bar is hidden. The second video is played normally – pausing is enabled and the control bar is visible.
Scrolling Playlist Vertical or Horizontal
This feature boasts the option of a vertical or horizontal scrolling playlist complete with text for the title and/or description of the video and the running time. Playlist customization can be used in conjunction with the control bar customization to create an overall new look to the player and its functions.
Custom Full Screen Effects
A very professional look: In full screen mode, your video will jump out of the page and darken the border where the rest of the page would otherwise show.
Emailing Button (overlay or tabbed)
Allow viewers to share your video with tabs right beside the player.
Embedding Button (overlay or tabbed)
The option to share the video via email can also come up right over the video.
