Hi,

What is the best way to embed "FLV" files into Exponential 4.0.1. I want to embed the FLV file exactly like the "Introduction to eZ Flow" on the following page:

http://ez.no/ezflow

Please suggest.

Hello John,

I'm using the Website Interface instead of the ezFlow extension, but I guess those instructions might work for ezFlow as well.

The Website Interface comes with a Flash content class. First, I create a new content object, based on the Flash content class.

This content object contains the movie, as well as some parameters like height and width, autoplay on/off and loop on/off.

After that I just embed this existing object in the page where I want it, using the size 'original'.

It looks just like the example you mentioned.

Hope this helps.

Maarten

Oh, I've used this for swf files. Don't know if flv behaves the same.

You'll find some extensions by searching for 'flv' in the contribution area and on projects.ez.no(these tend to be more up to date).

Cheers Andre,

Is there any FLV player which can be used in the software with Exponential 4.0.1 - professional license?

I have the same problem.
Instead of the .flv video player I only see a link to the player.
How can I embed flash player into my articel?
