Hi I love the plugin, it is great. I actually prefer your plugin over a very expensive paid video plugin. But enough kissing up, I have been developing a site for a couple of weeks now and I had wrapped up most of the development and started testing on browsers, I noticed that everything works great in firefox, but in explorer, there is either no player or it takes forever for the player to load (yes the Player, not video).

I am using wp3.0.1 and I am using the multi-site option. I have version 2.4.2 of your plugin.

You can visit nationalreiau.com/test-page-2 On this page the player loads up, but slowly and it only loaded up once I clicked on the timeline.

Then if you visit nationalreiau.com/resources and click on one of the help videos you will see the video is supposed to open but when the hoover over box opens it is black. You can view the 2 pages in firefox and see the difference.

I checked the source code on both the explorer version and the firefox version and it is all the same out put. Any ideas??? I'm sure the player must be working on explorer, as no one else has mentioned problems so it must be something native to my site and other plugins I have, but I don't know which.

Thanks,

Jeremy

Hello jeremy . Thanks for using HANA FLV player. Many problems are caused by javascript issues.

I have seen similar problems when
1. other plugin's javascript causes problem
2. different flash players are used in the same page or post.

Please provide a sample URL that I can try with IE. Maybe I can point out the problem or find a bug.

Thank you.

Actually I never tested with the new wp 3.0's multi site option. I am not sure if my plugin will work properly with this new feature.

Also I tested http://nationalreiau.com/test-page-2/, but I was able to see the flow player with IE. Default setting of [hana-flv-player] is to prevent flv file being downloaded automatically to save bandwidth as much as possible. But if you want it to be played right away or to be downloaded when the page is loaded, you can use below settings.

autoplay="true"
autoload="true"

For example
```
[hana-flv-player
    video="http://yourwebsite.com/yourvideo.flv"
    player="4"
    autoplay="true"
    autoload="true"
    loop="false"
    autorewind="true"
/]
```
You can change the default settings to 'true' for autoplay and autoload options in the settings page.

yes that player works, but it is the players hidden in the pop-up windows that are not working... If I have more than one player on a page will that cause problems?

Most likely the javascript is conflicting.

More than one player in a page does not cause problem. Often other plugin's javascript was the cause of the problem. Can you give me the exact URL? I will check.
