    Hi Martin, Juraj,

    I spoke too soon on everything working ok… In optimal’s main site (optimalmrm.com) all works fine with versions 7.4.7.727 for both player and pro.

    However, in the subdomain (mmf.optimalmrm.com), when the player was upgraded from 7.4.6.727 to 7.4.7.727 (with pro already at 7.4.7.727), the player returns error msg “…html error… try loading adobe flash”. When the player was rolled back to 7.4.6.727, it’s able to play videos again.

    The subdomain uses up-to-date technology like woocommerce and learndash. The main optimal site (where everything is working with 7.4.7.727 uses old wordpress technology). Both use aws cloudfront with fvplayer to serve videos.

    Regards,

    Greg

    Thanks Juraj, the player now get correctly sized for thumbnail and display, as specified in shortcode using ‘lightbox’ method.

    However, using this method, in full-screen mode, the display now extends beyond the height of a typical laptop or desktop screen, requiring user to have to scroll down to see control bar.

    Full-screen mode displays correctly if not using ‘lightbox’ method in shortcode.

    Hello,

    The video window ignores the width and height settings if “Integrations/Compatibility/”Always use fixed size player:” is unchecked. video window display is always close to full screen.

    If “Always use fixed size player:” is checked, the video window gets correctly sized, but then the splash dimensions from ‘lightbox=”true;150;150;” are ignored and the splash dimensions used are same as set for video window.

    this is the short code used [fvplayer src="https://d1sf2l8jdr5bcy.cloudfront.net/c1l1t2.mp4" width="800" height="600" lightbox="true;150;150;"]

    Are there any other settings need to control both video window size and splash size at the same time ?

    Thanks,
    Greg

    Hi Martin,

    The playback default minimum of 0.25X speed is much too slow. is there a way to set a minimum (and a maximum) speed ?

    This snippet is from https://flowplayer.com/help/plugins/speed.

    …..
    { speed:
    { options: [0.5, 1, 1.5]
    , labels: [“Slow”,”Normal”, “Fast”]
    }
    }
    ……

    How can this or similar be implemented as a global setting, ? is the wrapper for this, flowplayer.conf = { }; using html/css/js/html/… ?

    Thanks,
    Greg

    Greg Hajjar

    Thanks. It took a few attempts to find the right css, but it now works.

     .flowplayer .fp-captions p {
    	max-width: 65%;
    }
    

    You may want to consider adding css code example in docs to style the width of the captions line.

    Thanks,
    Greg

    Thanks Martin, for pointing out that the error in the file extension name.

    It now works.

    UTF-8 format works, thanks!. But for some reason, German language WTT file does not show when trying to upload in wordpress (‘add media’) to reference in fv player shortcode. I speculate that WP rejects characters in the wtt file and prevents file from being uploaded as media.
