Martin what I am actually attempting to do is have the player play one source video and a playlist in the shortcode.
i.e.
[fvplayer src="https://youtu.be/mRGsDv2VIFQ" id="18" splash="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/mRGsDv2VIFQ/maxresdefault.jpg"]It will then play the source video first and when it concludes play the videos in the playlist. So far when I use the above parameters in the shortcode, the following happen:
1. The thumbnail for the source video shows in the player.
2. The first thumbnail in the list of videos below the main video shows the source thumbnail.
3. The source video does not play, instead the first video in the playlist plays instead and the that thumbnail does not show up in the video thumbnails below the main video.I want to know how to make the source video plays and then have the playlist from the database “ID” plays next.
Is it possible to put an “IF” or “THEN” statement within the plugin source code that will allow users to use the database “ID” number in SRC1 or Playlist instead of a single or multiple video url?
Is there a way to automatically save a video url into the database and replace the url with an id without doing it manually?
If that function is achievable then what I am proposing would be a minor modification.
How much would the custom features cost?
If it is possible to add another table field for post category and then inside the shortcode users can specific the videos from a post category.
There is something else I did not account for. I want a source video to play and then when it’s finished a playlist will load and play videos base on an associated playlist. For the playlist function I want to do the following:
Current working shortcodes
1st playlist option 1 – [fvplayer src="video_url" playlist="video_url2,video_url3,video_url4"]2nd playlist option 2 [fvplayer id="1"]
Proposed option
What I want, but does not work- [fvplayer src="video_url1" id="1"].I want to make sure every time a user click on a video post that either a day, week, month, or year old it will play first, then the associated playlist with the most recent videos is loaded and play next.
I started using the features that you mentioned before and I am now working on another feature which will give users the options to make playlists from taxonomy/post categories. I want users to have the option to select Post Category within a video category or within sub-categories like News, Music, Trailers, Celebrity News etc.
The option should be either in post interface or integration/compatibility where users can choose whether to use post categories as playlists to story their videos.
I.E.
Playlist source: Post Categories
Custom
Both
Select Categories: [list of post categories]By selecting the post category or both option, it would automatically add selected post categories id & name to the FV Player database table.
I am working with the creators of the WP Pipes plugin to create an addon that allows the plugin to store video URL directly to FV Player Database Table base on the select post category [taxonomy_id].
In the end using both plugins we can create automatic playlists that can be displayed in fvplayer shortcode so after a single post video is played the playlist will be played after it.
Is it possible to set it up to use the a post category as a playlist and when you install the database tables the categories that contains video format automatically imports as playlist items?
