About This File
- Forum plugin which will display a HTML5 audio or video player for audio/video attachments and/or remotely linked audio/video files.
- Ability to enable/disable the player for audio or video or both (disabled by default, so effect will not be immediately seen on posts)
- Ability to enable/disable the respective players from handling remotely linked audio/video files.
- Ability to control the initial size of the video player so as to avoid 'large' videos pushing outside the post container.
-
Ability to include the original link, to act as a fallback for users with browsers which cannot either
- display the HTML5 player or
- play the audio/video file
- Admin configurable list of audio/video file extensions.
- Plugin is compatible with IPS 4.1 (tested with 4.1.19.4) and IPS 4.2 (tested with 4.2.5)
Please note the following:
- If you require support then please post in the provided support topic. Do not use PM and do not use the review functionality.
- Plugin support does not extend to assisting you with adding support for playing a specific audio/video file/codec to your browser (Google is your friend in this situation)

Questions:
-
Why are you charging more than your usual $5 for your plugin?
- Development of this plugin took longer than others, and I envisage future development and support will be time consuming too.
-
Will the plugin be extended to work on other applications in the IPS suite?
- I will try to develop it to work within the Pages application, however other applications will be more difficult due to me not owning licenses to use them. Never say never, but for now it's a 'No'
