I have released a simple package using Dewplayer for video content in Plone.

Introduction

This collective module collective.dewplayer register a zope directory resource containing the wonderful mp3 flash player Dewplayer, developed by alsacreation.

Installation

Add collective.dewplayer to your buildout as normal. Don’t forget to load the configure.zcml file.

At the moment this module doesn’t add any feature to Plone. It is primary use as resource package.

Usage

Dewplayer offer several flash players included in the directory resource:

• Mini (160x20) - dewplayer-mini.swf
• Classic (200x20) - dewplayer.swf
• Multi (240x20) - dewplayer-multi.swf
• Playlist (240x200) - dewplayer-playlist.swf
• Bubble (250x65) - dewplayer-bubble.swf

For example, to include a classic player (using dewplayer.swf) for mysite.com/myaudio.mp3:

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" 
        data="++resource++collective.dewplayer/dewplayer.swf" 
       width="200" height="20"> 
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
<param name="movie" value="dewplayer.swf" />
<param name="flashvars" value="mp3=http://mysite.com/myaudio.mp3&amp;showtime=1" />
</object>
