We just added this feature for FV Player Pro - our FV WordPress Flowplayer module which is available for all the licensed users. Here are the main advantages over using the Amazon S3 protected content support which is supported by our plugin as well:
- CloudFront is a CDN, Amazon S3 is not.

FV Flowplayer adds default volume setting
This feature was missing for a while now, but we finally got a chance to add it. FV Flowplayer now has a setting to set the default video volume. This setting affects all the videos on the website.
FV Flowplayer Default Volume Setting as seen on our settings screen
The default value is 1 - meaning full volume. You can enter 0 to make the videos start with muted audio by default. Anything in between sets the volume accordingly - enter 0.5 for reduced volume by default.

If you build it, build it right: WordPress WYSIWYG
We take a lot of care to code our plugins and our client sites in a resilient way. Recently WordPress updated to 3.9. Major versions are always a dicey affair. We had two great testimonials for our Foliopress WYSIWYG. One from Dennis Rivers of New Conversations:
WordPress just updated to 3.9 today (April 16, 2014), and the built-in page editor plus almost all of the alternative page editors crashed on my sites. Only Foliovision WYSIWYG Version 2.6.8.9. kept working!
I hope this is not happening to millions of wordPress users around the world, but I am afraid it might be.
Thanks for all your hard work to make a great implementation of ckeditor!
