Customize a Flash Video Player with playlist in the easiest way

Many people think it’s very difficult to realize playing videos on their own website, blog, forum or e-store, because it’s difficult for them, who don’t know any coding knowledge, to customize an own-branded web Flash video player like YouTube player for web. So if they want to play videos on their own website, they have to compress their videos size to 10 mins or smaller and upload to YouTube, and then get the embed codes of the videos for embedding onto website. Although they know the drawbacks like the videos will belong to YouTube, the video quality will be lower, etc.

In fact, it’s not difficult to customize a skinning web FLV player any more. Here, I will introduce a way to customize a skinning web FLV player with full-screen capability and playlist. At present, this way is the easiest one, which only needs a few mouse clicks.

Below is the tutorial shows how to customize the above flash video player with a few mouse-clicks on Moyea Web Player.

Step 1: Open Moyea Web Player on your PC

Step 2: Input flash videos you want to play on webpage into Moyea Web Player (If your videos are not flash videos, please convert them to).

Step 3: Choose a player skin(here, I use the default one), and remove the embed code area.




Check "Auto choose next" to make the player can player next video automatically

Step 4: Click “Publish” button to generate a web flash video player and other related files (Note: if you want to get a separate playlist file, please check “Out File”)

Step 5: Upload all the published files except the index.html file, to the same folder of your web server

Step 6: Embed the generated web video player onto your webpage with the embed code below (you can get it on the generated index.html file):

Player will show here

Note:
1. No tag outside the embed code.

2. mwplayer.swf is the actual flash video player. If it resides in another directory, then point to it with a relative path (e.g. /player/mwplayer.swf) or an absolute path (e.g. http://www.yourdomain.com/player/mwplayer.swf ).
For example:

Player will show here

3. '500','450' is the width and the height of the player, you could change them to change the player size.

Step 7: The flash video player will appear on your website. Have a look at the above demo.

So I have seen a lot of people on the Internet asking these questions - "How do I play FLV (Flash video) on my computer?" "Which program can play FLV file" "Which is the best flash video player?"

Wouldn't it be great if when you try to open a Flash Video it opens up in a Video Player so you can watch it?
