So I should hold off implementing Cloudfront until it is secure? – S3 is not so bad for hosting but at least it is secure.
I just bought the license – great player!
The S3 security feature is very welcome – thanks!!
But the concern for my Amazon S3 video is that permission has to be set to public viewing which means the link can be shared or worse, the movie can be downloaded unless the link or URL is hidden. Can this be the case?I am using woocommerce to monetize the video and ‘groups for woocommerce’ along with ‘groups’ plugin works very well to sell membership to a restricted page for 24 hours (or any time you set to expire).
My alternative is the wp secure player plugin which I tested (uses flowplayer). This use S3 for authenticated users which keeps the video on S3 restricted and private. The plugin is very buggy though and the author is working out some kinks.
Cheers, Jon
Thanks. I set this up originally using woogroups and groups plugin. Where the customer buys 24hr membership to the group when they buy the video rental. But its a little messy. They have to get an email then follow the link to a secure page.
I agree your player setting a secure url would help.How exactly does the secure url work – will you post a guideline on release?
I may have try to set the height or do something because the bottom border does not show – probably due to the progress bar. I like a border.
Still baffled why you make don’t make this progress bar an option. Does anyone like this being there?
This did not work for me but when I added { display: none; } it did the trick.
Thanks.
I finally figured out why my videos were not fitting your player, regardless of mov or mp4 – I tried both in many browsers and the video would not fit the player, leaving a 5px gap all around. Out of interest here it is:
I opened up the url to the video in a browser and the controls projected past the video – about 5px each side. I already knew this. So I am looking at the video without a player – raw in the browser.
I opened up the video (original QT H.264) mov in Quicktime player 7, so that I could use the properties window. If you click presentation at the bottom there is a checkbox for “Conform aperture to:” with settings for clean, classic, production etc. Mine was set to production – no idea why.
I deselected the Conform aperture altogether and saved the file.Perfect!! The controls fit inside the video, allwoing the video to fit in your player.
That is good news!
The wp secure player is actually a per per view player – monetized so you can sell streaming video or movies, training video etc. It is tied to paypal pro.I am looking for a video VOD player like this for woocommerce.
I set up your plugin again with a mov changed to mp4. Again the splash image is not fitting the player but I did overcome the problem with the video fitting.

Please click on ‘watch trailer’.
The video above this is the wp secure player – which does not work now due to the conflicts with your player (both sending message to the header).
Sorry but I had Flowplayer5 running. Your plugin conflicts with a pay per view plugin I need called wp secure player which uses Flowplayer. So I switched to Flowplayer5.
I activated your plugin just now and same problem. The controller overshoots or projects past the content video – I set up a sample here – “http://www.emptymindfilms.com/newsite/rent-movie/one-shot-one-life/”
The video has been set to video/mp4 in Amazon’s S3. This is the best I can do as I have a lot of video.You can see the wp secure player video here but it will not play now due to the conflict. I have informed the developer of this – “http://www.emptymindfilms.com/newsite/rent-movie/the-last-clan/”
Thanks for your help.
