After installing and activating the plugin, the “Check template” button returns a no template found and the “Check videos” button displays nothing at all.
Then I tried to install a video into a page, when I launched the Video page I got two errors: Bad mime type and Bad metadata, after fixing both of these errors now I get “Video OK” but still the video will not play, in some cases the black box will not even show on the page…
I’m testing the videos in IE, Chrome, Firefox and safari browsers. I’m using WordPress 3.6 and my theme is Ocean Mist.

Hello Gregory,
please copy the exact text as returned by the “Check template” function.
If the video is just a black box, it appears that the plugin fails to add its scripts into the header and footer. You should check if your template is using wp_head() and wp_footer() function calls.
The “Check template” function was built to detect issues like this, it should give you a more sensible warning than just “no template found”.
I installed the Ocean Mist 2.0. template now and indeed – it has no wp_head() in it. Just add it into header.php, just before closing </head> tag. We will include this hint in the “Check template” function.
Thanks,
MartinThanks
