Hello Mark,
please let us know if you using Matomo’s Media Analytics.
I wonder if the video name could be failing for you somehow. Are you able to open the browser developer tools and go the the network tab?
Then enable “Preserve log” and watch the individual “matomo” requests as the video plays. In each of these you should see the proper
e_n
argument.Then please reload the page to see the “Video / Seconds played” event, it should be have the correct
e_n
in it as well. I’m attaching a screenshot from our website where I enabled Matomo briefly.If it’s all looking good, there might be something else trying to track the videos.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Bunny verification does not workHello Francus,
please let us know what part of verification is not working.
The documentation on https://support.bunny.net/hc/en-us/articles/360000548992-How-to-check-if-your-website-is-correctly-configured-with-bunny-net deals with how to check that your website is using the CDN for the websites assets (images, scripts, stylesheets). FV Player only deals with videos.
I see you are using FV Player Pro and not FV Player Coconut, you should be able to configure your custom domain without issues: https://foliovision.com/player/video-hosting/using-bunnycdn-with-fvplayer-pro
Thanks,
MartinHello Ab,
unfortunately it wouldn’t be easy to include both kinds of tracing at once. If you know JavaScript well enough you can probably figure it out in flowplayer/modules/analytics.module.js, but I wouldn’t advise that as you are migrating to GA4 anyway.
Thanks,
MartinHello Steve,
you can keep using the FV Player version from Github, once the new version is our on WordPress.org it will allow you to update the plugin.
The image here in forums is using your Gravatar. But we fixed that profile editing. Thank you for letting us know about the issue.
Thanks,
MartinHello Paolo,
I’m not sure if they delay which you perceive is not just random. We will run some tests.
Thanks,
MartinHello Paolo,
I found that the stream is actually not recognized as a live stream.
Could you please reinstall FV Player from this link? https://github.com/foliovision/fv-wordpress-flowplayer/archive/master.zip To do that you will have to first deactivate and delete the current FV Player plugin you are using. WordPress will warn you that you might loose settings and data, but it’s not the case with our plugin, no settings now videos will be lost. Or you can just replace the plugin files via FTP.
Then once you re-post that video by creating a new player it will recognize it as a live stream. If you check the second screenshot in our guide at https://foliovision.com/player/video-hosting/hls you will see where the “Live stream” checkbox appears.
We need to update that guide to indicate the stream type is detected automatically, but we are also finishing the new editor layout. So we will then do a bigger update.
Thanks,
MartinHello Paolo,
if you could put it live now, then I will have a look. I’ll be able to check it for 2 more hours.
Thanks,
MartinHello Paolo,
currently that video does not play at all.
If you did not see the video check, then please see if you get when editing the video in wp-admin -> FV Player.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Player doesn’t go full screen on iOS.Hello James,
it appears your theme is forcing some z-index along with positioning on the element where FV Player is placed – and then our plugin can’t override that.
We provide that “Alternative iOS fullscreen” setting to avoid this issue but unfortunately it does not for your YouTube.
Do you use any subtitles, overlay ads, AB loop bar or FV Player Pro DRM Text on your videos?
If not, then we can avoid this issue by only playing these YouTube videos in native fullscreen mode of the mobile. We have a setting to do that and it could be improved to work with YouTube as well. The downside is that you only get the standard built-in player while playing – hence no custom subtitles, ads etc.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Used license but logo not showHello ufabet,
I’m sorry, I see where I made a mistake. It should be all good now. It might take half day before FV Player checks the license again, you can remove the license key, save it and put it back in for faster refresh.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: How to hide AD for a logged in userHello Don,
we checked this again and will add a setting to disable ads for the logged in users.
Thanks,
MartinHello Matthias,
thank you for the bug report, the fix will be part of the next FV Player release.
Originally the Chromecast would default to being enabled for new installs. Then we changed that to not be enabled for new installs, but wanted it to preserve the status for users who upgrade and I see how that did not work properly now. Sorry about the inconvenience.
Thanks,

Martin3 years ago in reply to: Used license but logo not showHello ufabet,
please go to https://foliovision.com/my-licenses and you will find the new fixed key for your เ…น.com domain (xn--12…m.com) there.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Used license but logo not showHello ufabet,
does the issue occur for your domain with non-latin characters?
Please let us know and I will create a new key.
Thanks,
MartinHello Steve,
we will set it to re-create these tables when using wp-admin -> FV Player.
Please let us know which guide you followed and we will fix it too.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Player doesn’t go full screen on iOS.Hello James,
I realized that fix does not work for YouTube videos. Please let us know if you are using YouTube.
Thanks,
MartinHello Paolo,
did you use our guide for the HLS streams for AWS? https://foliovision.com/player/securing-your-video/mediaconvert-encrypted-hls-guide
I wonder if you made a mistake in the video encoding selection. Please use our video checker to let us check the video encoding: https://foliovision.com/player/basic-setup/how-to-use-video-checker
Please also try to post some other video to see if it’s not just a display issue too.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Player doesn’t go full screen on iOS.Hello James,
please try with Settings -> FV Player -> Mobile Settings -> Alternative iOS fullscreen mode and let us know if it helped.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Need to hide add based on user’s role.Hello Bruno,
I wish it would be that simple. We checked the following 4 membership solutions and none of it works with WordPress user roles:
- Easy Digital Downloads (with Content Restriction and Recurring Billing)
- Paid Membership Subscriptions
- Restrict Content Pro – here the roles could work, but you would have to first create these with a 3rd party plugin
- WooCommerce Membership
Unfortunately it seems this would require a different piece of code for each plugin.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Too many draft players being createdHello HungTQ and Byron,
the fix for this issue is prepared for the next release. If you need it right now you can reinstall FV Player from this link: https://github.com/foliovision/fv-wordpress-flowplayer/archive/master.zip
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Force Landscape in Fullscreen on iPhoneAfter further consideration we are not going to do this.
We will only show the notice when the location bar shows in the fullscreen mode when phone is in landscape orientation.
Thanks,
MartinHello Turbokingspoker,
thank you for the links. We fixed some parsing issues and now the videos appear to play without issues. Please have a look on your end too.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Playback on the viewport scroll does not workHello Michel,
what happens when the video comes into the viewport? Does it start loading at all?
Do you run into the same issue if you post the video on a new page with just some text and the player on it? I’m asking in case you are using any special positioning for the player which might affect the viewport check.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Old Vimeo playlist work but not new onesHello David,
we found issues with parsing of the new Vimeo video URLs and put in a fix to the API. Now these videos will play.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Old Vimeo playlist work but not new onesHello David,
we got notified about a similar issue yesterday evening, we are investigating.
Thanks,
MartinHello miksmusic,
e.currentTarget should work.
Alternatively you can use the root variable in the callback, if you can still easily switch to that:
flowplayer( function(api,root) { api.bind('error' function( e, api, error ) { console.log( jQuery(root) ); }); });
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Autoplay next item without a playlistHello miksmusic,
to conclude this thread, it seems you were able to add the functionality you needed once we answered your related question here: https://foliovision.com/support/fv-wordpress-flowplayer/troubleshooting/understanding-js-api
Thanks,
MartinHello Turbokingspoker,
could you please send over the Vimeo links for at least one of these videos? We will not publish it.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Understanding JS APIHello miksmusic,
do you run that code on page load? If so, try to run in only once FV Player has finished loading
document.addEventListener( 'fv_player_loaded', function() { ... });
This is required as FV Player only loads once user starts interacting with the page. You can disable this by unchecking Settings -> FV Player -> Integrations/Compatibility -> “Optimize FV Flowplayer JS loading”.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: How can I delete Subtitle Language tracksHello Gillian,
the empty subtitle row is indeed a bug. Could you please reinstall FV Player from this link? https://github.com/foliovision/fv-wordpress-flowplayer/archive/master.zip
To do that you will have to first deactivate and delete the current FV Player plugin you are using. WordPress will warn you that you might loose settings and data, but it’s not the case with our plugin, no settings now videos will be lost. Or you can just replace the plugin files via FTP.
Then the bug should be fixed and it should prevent the issue which you are having. I’m attaching a screenshot of the weird state I was running into without this fix – two subtitle rows with no language selected.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: How can I delete Subtitle Language tracksHello Gillian,
I did my own test:
- started a new FV Player
- added 4 subtitles to it (screenshot attached)
- removed one of the subtitles by making the field blank (screenshot attached)
- closed the editor
- opened the editor for the player again
- saw that the subtitle which I removed was indeed removed (screenshot attached)
So I was not able to run into this issue. Could you please post the exact steps which you are doing?
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: How can I delete Subtitle Language tracksHello Gillian,
here’s the issue which Maria was having:
What I did to reproduce it:
- Created new FV Player
- Inserted several languages
- Saved the player
- Reopen it
That’s all. Once reopened, it puts a extra language field above the ones inserted.
I’m attaching a screenshot too.
However that doesn’t seem to be the issue you are having.
You mentioned that once you try to remove one of the languages and it says it saved, it’s not actually saved properly – once you open the player for editing again and go to check the subtitles, the language which you removed is still there.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: How can I delete Subtitle Language tracksHello Gillian,
I’m asking Maria for the exact steps to reproduce the issue as it works fine for me.
Thanks,
MartinHello Oranzi,
please try to enable Settings -> FV Player -> Integrations/Compability -> Remove fancyBox – perhaps it will fix the issue.
Otherwise you should ask the theme support about the space key – do they use it as a hotkey for anything? I do not see it in documentation for fancyBox 3 at all.
What do you get when you run this code snippet on your browser console (here’s how to open it https://foliovision.com/player/troubleshooting/javascript-browser-console), on the page with the issue?
jQuery.fancybox.version
You should get 3.5.7.
If you need this fixed with a top priority, we are happy to fix it on your website if you order our Make Your Theme work with Video service: https://foliovision.com/downloads/making-player-theme
Otherwise we can give you more troubleshooting tips.
Thanks,
MartinHello Oranzi,
I was not able to find the goodlayers-core plugin on WordPress.org, it just goes to a search page: https://wordpress.org/plugins/goodlayers-core/
So it must be some core plugin for your theme. Does that plugin or theme use Fancybox?
Please make sure you try to reproduce the issue when using a different theme, like Twenty Twenty One. You should be able to use the theme preview and browse to your page with videos there.
Thanks,
MartinHello Byron,
the video checker should still work, it does not matter how the FV Player is created. If should work with your theme custom field.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Customizing audio player controls with CSSHello Miksmusic,
please check the “Show pause button for audio player at all times” tip in your CSS guide: https://foliovision.com/player/advanced/css-tips-and-fixes#audio-player-pause
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: DRM text random position and size option3 years ago in reply to: Autoplay next item without a playlistHello miksmusic,
I’m not sure how we could introduce this as a new player function. Perhaps it could act on the shortcode level, so you would post the players like this:
[fvplayer id="1" group="my-group-name"] [fvplayer id="2" group="my-group-name"]
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: DRM text random position and size optionHello Dmitri,
I prepared a fix for the DRM text placement for the next FV Player Pro Beta release.
Please deactivate and delete the FV Player Pro plugin you are using, then hit “Install Pro extension” at the top of the wp-admin -> Settings -> FV Player screen.
Then switch to the Beta release using the steps from here if you are not already using it: https://foliovision.com/player/basic-setup/switching-fv-player-pro-to-beta
That will reinstall the plugin and will give you the latest version with the fix.
Thanks,
MartinHello HungTQ,
could you please post a sample of the iframe embed code which we do not support?
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Too many draft players being createdHello HungTQ,
please let us know where do you typically add new FV Player instances. Do you use wp-admin -> FV Player? Or do you use some post edit screen? If so, what editor do you use?
Please let us know what do you typically fill in as well. Do you pick the video from Media Library? If so, which tab?
Do you typically create video playlists?
Byron, the video might remain in the Draft status if you do not post it into a post which you then save. Do you also get duplicate drafts?
We are going through our website to see if we see duplicate drafts anywhere, but so far we haven’t found any issue.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: BunnyCDN can’t uploud videos from libraryHello yairbr,
so the “Upload to Bunny Stream” button does not appear at all in the Bunny Stream tab as seen in https://foliovision.com/player/video-hosting/bunny-stream-player-integration -> “3. Either click the Upload to Bunny Stream button” ?
Please let us know what browser you are using.
Please let us know if you use any other plugin which enhances the WordPress Media Library. Would it be possible to try on a staging website with other plugins disabled?
Other option would be to enable the browser JavaScript console (here’s how https://foliovision.com/player/troubleshooting/javascript-browser-console), then load the page with your editor again and open FV Player Editor. See if any error appeared on the console or if it appears when you open the Bunny Stream tab.
Thanks,
MartinHello Miksmusic,
do you use the flowplayer( function(api,root) … ) callback as shown in Programmer’s Guide -> How to Add Your Code? https://foliovision.com/player/advanced/api-programming#how-to ?
Then you can use jQuery(root) to get the main player element and it will be always the one where the event has occurred.
Please let us know if that’s it.
Thanks,
MartinHello Oranzi,
we were not able to reproduce the issue. I tried to post two Bunny Stream videos, each into lightbox, and the it would not advance to the next video when hitting the space key. I tried with Firefox and Brave.
Please let us what other plugins you are using, perhaps there is something else that is assigning the space key as a hotkey for the Fancybox lightbox library.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Permissions for Editor roleHello Robert,
please reinstall FV Player Pro – deactivate and delete the FV Player Pro plugin you are using, then hit “Install Pro extension” at the top of the wp-admin -> Settings -> FV Player screen.
That way the issue will be fixed. It seems we made a mistake when adding this feature for Editor role users.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: DRM text random position and size option3 years ago in reply to: Too many draft players being createdHello HungTQ,
this should not be happening at all. We got a report like this before and I did run into the issue myself on one website a while ago.
Please let us know if this keeps happening to you very often.
I will keep my eyes open to see if I ever run into it again.
I see that an option to remove players which are not used anywhere could be useful.
Thanks,
MartinHello Jovan,
it’s possible to change the URL by adjusting the FV Player code, but it would have to be changed in several places.
I see the video sitemap is supported in the paid versions of Rank Math: https://rankmath.com/offer/ -> Compare Free vs Premium
Could you please ask Rank Math support if their system is modular and if it would be possible to add code to include FV Player in their video sitemaps? Perhaps we could support it in our plugin. That would avoid the duplicate video sitemap.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: PHP 5.2: Parse error: syntax errorHello,
we have avoided the PHP 5.2 compatibility issues. Please reinstall FV Player from this link https://github.com/foliovision/fv-wordpress-flowplayer/archive/master.zip To do that you will have to first deactivate and delete the current FV Player plugin you are using. WordPress will warn you that you might loose settings and data, but it’s not the case with our plugin, no settings now videos will be lost. Or you can just replace the plugin files via FTP.
Then it should be working for you, if you really cannot upgrade your PHP version.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Permissions for Editor roleHello Robert,
please check if they are able to access wp-admin -> FV Player -> Video Ads.
Thanks,
MartinHello Steve,
the step to configure video_files capability might not be there 1-2 years ago. If you generated a new key with that capability, it should let you play videos again.
Thanks,
MartinHello Steve,
please check if enabling “Turbocharge Ajax Vimeo Loading” will avoid the issue: https://foliovision.com/player/video-hosting/how-to-use-vimeo#turbocharge-ajax-loading
It will use a different method for HTTP and perhaps that will help. However that way nothing will show in Log HTTP Requests. It’s still important to check if the requests in that log are failed or taking too long. Could you please post a screenshot of that log?
Thanks,
MartinHello Steve,
the “It seems this video doesn’t belong into your Vimeo account or you miss the video_files capability for your API key.” error can only occur if the initial video load through our API (which we use to get MPEG-DASH streams) fails. So it’s strange that you do not see these failed request in Log HTTP Requests. Or do you see some requests that were failed or taking too long?
Does the actual video belong to the same Vimeo account as the API key? Please also check if the API key/token has the video_files capability. You can see how to set it up here: https://foliovision.com/player/video-hosting/how-to-use-vimeo#access-token-setup -> “make sure you only choose Public, Private and Video Files scopes.”

I found that we forgot to include a single , in the code and that has caused the issue. We will add automated JavaScript code check using JSlint to avoid issues like this.

So it’s an edge case bug and we will stop it from happening ever again.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Videos have stopped working in pro playerHello Leona,
if it behaves properly without FV Player Pro, then it really suggests you have configured some other CDN in wp-admin -> Settings -> FV Player Pro -> Hosting.
Please check wp-admin -> Settings -> FV Player Pro -> Hosting -> Cloudflare – is the domain name really empty? You will have to enable FV Player Pro to be able to check it out though.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Your VAT registration form is NOT workingHello Vladimir,
I found the bug and fixed it – the empty space at the start of your VAT code did cause the issue with the country detection.
Now it will work properly.
Please let us know if there is anything else.
Thanks,
MartinHello Karun,
thank you for letting us know. Configuring that IP forwarding should be a core part of any advanced CDN setup as different WordPress plugins need the proper user IP – for security and proper logging.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Admin JavaScript warningHello Jovan,
please make sure you purge any caches, specially if you use something to optimize the JavaScript.
If the issue persists, then please check open your browser developer console (here’s how https://foliovision.com/player/troubleshooting/javascript-browser-console), then load the page where the issue occurs again and see, if any error appears on the console.
Thanks,
MartinHello Karun,
it seems you are using Cloudfront for your website. I’m not sure what that does to the IP addresses in WordPress.
Please switch your FV Player Pro to Beta, here’s how: https://foliovision.com/player/basic-setup/switching-fv-player-pro-to-beta
Then go to wp-admin -> Settings -> FV Player Pro and append “&debug” at the end of URL, so you get something like: https://site.com/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=fvplayer&debug
Then you will find a new “Encrypted HLS tokens” box in the “Tools” tab.
Try to play the video in other tab of your browser and reload that FV Player Pro settings screen – please see if you can see the token in that Encrypted HLS tokens table.
If yes, then it would mean that the IP addresses are getting mixed up and your CDN needs to be configured to forward the real client IP to the website.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Videos have stopped working in pro playerHello Leona,
please check wp-admin -> Settings -> FV Player Pro -> Hosting – it seems you have something configured not only in Amazon S3 box, but also in Cloudflare and at least one more other video hosting provider. Please ensure the domain is empty for the video hosting CDNs which you do not use in that Hosting tab.
Thanks,
MartinHello Oranzni,
we will probably add a function to create new Collections right in the FV Player Bunny Stream job browser
Thanks,
MartinHello Sarah,
yes, we created this small paid addon plugin: https://foliovision.com/downloads/player-live-streaming
Please let us know what do you need to happen once the live stream ends, then we can tell you if it’s supported. We have users using the redirection feature with it: https://foliovision.com/player/basic-setup/end-of-video-actions
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Ad video not playingHello Joe,
it seems that video ad URL does not work – it gives a HTTP 403 code. The main video won’t play either.
Are the other videos on the website playing fine? Now the main video started to play as I was writing this message.
Thanks,
MartinHello Oranzni,
please let us know what is your use case for using multiple Bunny Stream Libraries for a single website.
Bunny Stream lets you categorize the video using Collections.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Contune Watching Option and H5P supportHello David,
can H5P work with video element provided by a 3rd party player? Unless they built their technology to work like that it would be really difficult to recreate all of these Interactive Video features: https://h5p.org/interactive-video
Thanks,
MartinHello Apasho,
it’s weird that it still won’t play on mobile.
You can try to run this on the mobile phone browser console and then reload the page:
localStorage.flowplayerDebug = true
That will let you debug the events which occur.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: New version 7.5.18.727Hello Nick,
thank you for confirming. If you did not enable Caching -> General -> Vary Cache -> URL Query String then please do – it will help with any plugin that has a change in its CSS and JavaScript files, not just FV Player.
I added this to our article about how to use CDN properly too: https://foliovision.com/2017/06/wordpress-cdn-best-practices
Thanks,
MartinHello Gomez,
please test on https://googleads.github.io/googleads-ima-html5/vsi/ and let us know if it works there.
It did not work for me, but it seems the issue is that the video file is only provided in the HLS format. That would only play in iOS and Safari, at least without any special library. Can you also get that ad in MP4 format?
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: New version 7.5.18.727Hello Nick,
I was not able to reproduce this issue.
It seems you are using Bunny CDN with Perma-Cache which might not be hanging on to old JavaScript files from the previous FV Player version.
Please try to disable Bunny CDN on your website and see if that helps.
If it helps, then clear the Bunny CDN Perma-Cache. I wonder if it can be configured to respect the URL query strings for the JavaScript and CSS files. Please check if you have Caching -> General -> Vary Cache -> URL Query String enabled.
Thanks,
MartinHello Apasho,
I see you use this to init FV Player:
jQuery.ajax({ ... success: function (data) { ... el = jQuery(data) window.fpId = el[0].id jQuery(".vimeography-embed").html(data); fv_player_load(); fv_autoplay_exec(); ... flowplayer(`#${window.fpId}`).load(); ... if(seek_to != 0) { setTimeout(function () { console.log('seeking to', seek_to); flowplayer(`#${window.fpId}`).seek(seek_to); }, 2000); } ... } });
My recommendation would be to remove all that code starting with fv_player_load() down to that setTimeout() call. The FV Player should still load as we execute fv_player_load() after each Ajax call automatically.
If you want to autoplay the video inserted via Ajax, you can use this code: https://foliovision.com/support/fv-wordpress-flowplayer/bug-reports/autoplay-doesnt-work-with-ajax#post-148142
Thanks,
MartinHello Apasho,
I was wondering more about the JavaScript code – that’s where I would be looking for issues if the video doesn’t load properly.
If there is anything to initiate the video playback (autoplay) then please start by removing that part and see if it fixes the video playback.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Admin JavaScript warningHello Cirdec,
thank you, I’m glad we were able to figure this out.
These fixes will be part of the future releases of course.
Thanks,
MartinHello Apasho,
what code does is use to play these videos inserted via Ajax?
On the watch page, when one clicks on a link, the output of the flowplayer shortcode is inserted into the page and starts the video
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: How to Use FV Player VASTHello Krys,
the plugin is easy to install, you can follow the guide here: https://foliovision.com/player/vast/how-to-use-vast
If you have any issues with the ad playback please test you VAST ad on https://foliovision.com/player/vast/tester and https://googleads.github.io/googleads-ima-html5/vsi/
Please let us know if you run into any issues.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: PHP 5.2: Parse error: syntax errorHello,
your web hosting is using a PHP version older than 5.5, which is really old an insecure. WordPress recommends using PHP 7.4.
But we will check if we can fix this easily.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Have rounded corners ?Hello Cirdec,
if it’s a YouTube video, then please add in .flowplayer iframe.fp-engine.
I posted the whole CSS tweak here: https://foliovision.com/player/advanced/css-tips-and-fixes#rounded-borders
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Admin JavaScript warningHello Cirdec,
thank you for these details. It appears some of the code on your website is using “const i” which then runs into an issue with the “var i” in some of FV Player code. So I took care of this bad practice in our plugin and the other plugin will no longer interfere with it.
Could you please reinstall FV Player from this link? https://github.com/foliovision/fv-wordpress-flowplayer/archive/master.zip To do that you will have to first deactivate and delete the current FV Player plugin you are using. WordPress will warn you that you might loose settings and data, but it’s not the case with our plugin, no settings now videos will be lost. Or you can just replace the plugin files via FTP.
Then also reinstall FV Player Pro – deactivate and delete the FV Player Pro plugin you are using, then hit “Install Pro extension” at the top of the wp-admin -> Settings -> FV Player screen.
That way the issue should be fixed.
However your console also shows the “Uncaught TypeError: L is undefined” coming from Elementor – I’m not sure if this will still break the JavaScript (and thus FV Player) or not.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: FvFlowplayer logo shows on my videosHello Luc,
I removed that staging domain from your licensing.
Please send links to videos on both website so that I can check why the logo issue occurs on one of them. Are you sure all the Autoptimize settings are the same?
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Admin JavaScript warningHello Cirdec,
I checked your website and the video here plays: https://www.y…r/topic/vive-le-vent-piano-debutant/
But what’s strange are the two big symbols above the player – coming from LearnDash.
It seems you are using some CSS optimization which might be broken. You should start by clearning and WordPress caches and see if that fixes the issue.
If you still can’t play FV Player videos, please provide the screenshot of your browser console.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: VTT Chapters MaxHello Daniele,
I see, currently the duration is only scanned when you paste in the URL and then click to some other field. And also in the background cron processing.
I guess the fix is to ensure the duration check runs when saving. And we can make it so that the save in editor checks the video duration more often.
Thanks,

I tried with Elementor 3.5.6 on WordPress 5.9.2 and I’m not getting any error on console and the player loads – please see the attached screenshot.
Does the issue go away if you disable Elementor Pro for a bit? Are you noticing anything on your browser console?
The way of increasing the resilience of FV Player would be to either load the scripts in header (bad for performance) or load all instances in iframe (even worse).
But perhaps the header loading is actually a good idea if it only works that way in wp-admin – where top performance is important, but most people editing the website have the script cached already.
Thanks,

please send over that export, I would you to check what it says about “duration”. It might have some bad value stored. And if that can happen, we will need a way of letting you reset it.
I think if you open the FV Player Editor, then copy the Video link, remove it and past it back in, it should get the proper duration this time.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Admin JavaScript warningHello Cirdec,
please let us know what editor you are using – is it Gutenber, the Classic Editor or some page builder?
Please try to open your browser developer console (here’s how https://foliovision.com/player/troubleshooting/javascript-browser-console), then load the page where the issue occurs again and see, if any error appears on the console.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: VTT Chapters MaxHello Daniele,
do you mean the video duration shows as 3:53 when you load the page, but then as soon as you click the video to play it fixes itself to 05:27?
Please try to use the export function for that player – You can get that on wp-admin -> FV Player screen when you hover the player row – the Export link will appear. I wonder what video duration is stored in database.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: How to rent out sets of videos?Hello Girish,
sorry about the late reply – no, the 4th level domain should not matter. What exact issues you are running into? Did it keep saying your license key is wrong?
I realized the improved Restrict Content Pro support in FV Player Pay Per View was not released yet. Please grab a fresh FV Player Pay Per Vie ZIP file from https://foliovision.com/my-licenses and reinstall from that.
Then you can pick which membership level belongs to which player and it should fix your issue – see the guide here: https://foliovision.com/2022/02/video-subscription-wordpress -> How does it work?
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: How to find out which videos have error?Hello Çapan,
please check our documentation at Using Google Universal Analytics with FV Player -> Video Errors: https://foliovision.com/player/advanced/google-analytics-fv-player#video-errors
You can use the proper secondary dimension to get the exact page URL where the issue is:
Page – will show you the URL of the page, where the error event occurred
I also see that a video link scanner would be a nice feature. It would be harder to make it work with YouTube though.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: VTT Chapters MaxHello Daniele,
your video is 3 minutes 53 seconds long, while some of your chapters go past that time – up to 5 minutes and 27 seconds. That’s why these chapters do not show.
Please let us know if that explains it or if the video duration is not properly detected.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Remember video position with Video AdsHello Caleb,
we worked on making the video ads work with the video position remembering. Once we finish the automated testing routine if will become available in the Beta release of FV Player Pro.
It seems that Settings -> FV Player -> Mobile Settings -> Alternative iOS fullscreen mode did help with your issue. It’s required when the website CSS is not using z-index properly. Maybe we should enable it for all users at all times as iPhone just does not support proper fullscreen mode.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Chapters button alwaysHello Cirdec,
a simple
.fv-fp-chapter { display: block; }
should work.
Please let us know if it helped and we will add it into the CSS tips.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Have rounded corners ?Hello Cirdec,
please try with:
.flowplayer, .flowplayer .fp-player .fp-splash, .flowplayer video, .flowplayer .fp-ui { border-radius: 1em !important; } .flowplayer .fp-header { border-radius: 1em 1em 0 0; }
Thanks,
MartinHello Cirdec,
that reply from Vimeo support is very vague. I was expecting they will tell you about the request rate limits (which we respect) and issues when accessing missing videos (you cleaned these up).
Please ask your web hosting provider how many other websites are on the same IP address as your website – perhaps the issue comes from some other website which might not belong to you at all.
Or do you see many recent entries in Settings -> FV Player Pro -> Hosting -> Vimeo -> There were {number} errors -> (show) ?
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: FvFlowplayer logo shows on my videosHello Ettec,
are you using anything to optimize the JavaScript on the website? Recently we had a user who used Autoptimize, so I just reminded him he has to use keep “Also aggregate inline JS” off as noted in our guide: https://foliovision.com/player/advanced/player-minify-plugins
That could explain why it works in wp-admin, but not for your members (who browse the site front-end). You can check the HTML code of one of your pages and see if you can find fv_flowplayer_conf in there.
If your wp-admin is one domain and the members subdomain is on the same master domain, it should still be without the logo.
Please let us know.
Thanks,
Martin3 years ago in reply to: Remember video position with Video AdsHello Quest,
about the fullscreen bug – please try Settings -> FV Player -> Mobile Settings -> Alternative iOS fullscreen mode instead.
Thanks,
MartinHello Cirdec,
please let us know if Vimeo mentioned what got you banned in the first place.
Please disable Settings -> FV Player Pro -> Pro Features -> Debug and delete that file.
Thanks,
MartinHello Cirdec,
yes, that’s it. If you scroll up a bit you should see this part too:
Vimeo API action on Thu, 10 Mar 2022 ... /me on ...
That “/me” part proves that it’s just a standard request to get the account details.
Thanks,
MartinHello Cirdec,
I’m sorry to hear about the trouble – please check if you still have set Settings -> FV Player Pro -> Pro Features -> Debug to Verbose.
You should be able to see these headers in the log file which get. You should be able to find the /me request in it and see what x-banned-ip header it gets.
If you are not sure, please let us know about what file path you get once you click the there dots “(…)” next to that setting. I’m attaching a screenshot to show what I mean.
Thanks,
Martin
