AllVideos (by JoomlaWorks) is truly THE all-in-one media management solution for Joomla! and a classic must-have extension for any Joomla! based website.
You can use the plugin to easily embed media hosted on popular services like YouTube, Vimeo, Dailymotion, SoundCloud (and many more) inside your Joomla! articles (or K2, redShop, Virtuemart etc).
Additionally, it allows you to playback almost any video/audio file format hosted on your server or even a remote server, providing great flexibility when it comes to media content embedding. Fun videos, product presentations, audio podcasts, you name it!
--- WHY ALLVIDEOS? ---
- You don't have to copy/paste huge blocks of HTML code, just to get a video from YouTube to playback on your Joomla! website! Your WYSIWYG editor loves it and so will you and your clients!
- You use simple and descriptive plugin tags like {youtube}heu37ej3qs{/youtube}, {flv}batman_darknight{/flv} or {mp3}pixies_bonemachine{/mp3}.
- Allows for iPhone/iPad compatible media embedding where supported.
AllVideos means dead-simple & inexpensive media streaming for anyone. You can use, for example, YouTube to upload your videos and then embed them inside your site without consuming your server's bandwidth or having to spend money on expensive video conversion software!
--- FEATURES ---
1. Dozens of media providers supported, including localized versions of YouTube and Google Video (e.g. es.youtube.com), Vimeo, Dailymotion, Metacafe, MySpace, Flickr Video, Blip.tv, TwitVid, Justin.tv, yFrog, SoundCloud and more.
2. Stream your own media content, using the 20+ web compatible video and audio formats like flv, swf, mov, mp4, wmv, wma, mp3, 3gp, webm, ogv, ogg, divx and more.
3. Easily embed your media content either directly from your server or a remote server!
4. Simple controls inside the plugin's parameters page provide layout consistency on all the videos shown in your Joomla! website. Set your preferences in seconds, publish the plugin and you're ready to start streaming content!
5. Easy, descriptive syntax for media embedding - {format/provider}filename{/format/provider}. You can also use syntax like {format/provider}filename|width|height|autoplay{/format/provider} (e.g. an "autoplaying" {youtube}he73js82|600|450|1{/youtube}) to display videos at different dimensions!
6. Skinnable! AllVideos uses MVC templating. Just copy the /tmpl folder included in the plugin, move it to your template's /html folder and rename it to "jw_allvideos", then style the output as you wish. The good thing about MVC templating is you don't have to worry about future updates breaking your styling.
7. Mobile-friendly: if you use MP4 for uploaded videos or if you use services like YouTube, Vimeo and Dailymotion, your videos are mobile ready (see last screenshot).

I first used this plugin with Joomla 1.7 and it worked beautifully and in seconds. Great plugin! When I installed Joomla 2.5 recently the plugin stopped working when coded as {type}file{/type}. I got a message saying video format not recognized and the name of the file was appended with "undefinedundefined...". I decided to play around a bit and when I added a width and height to the tag...all of a sudden it worked again.
my tag looks like this:
{ogv}filename|400|300{/ogv}
If anyone is having problems...try adding a few attributes after the file name separated by pipes.
Once again...Excellent product!!

I've used a number of video components/plugins and AllVideos plugin worked right out of the box. The tags for inserting the videos into articles are straight forward. This is now my standard video plugin for Joomla jobs.
The player itself fails to load properly in IE9. The controls don't show up, and there is no way to even try to play the video. Tried it on two different laptops with default browser security settings.
Loads fine and plays mp4 video fine in Firefox, so I know the player and video are configured properly.
Standard HTML5 player plays video in both browsers fine, but is ugly player ;).
Can't use this player.

I am a complete Joomla novice and this was the first Plugin extension I have installed to my site. It took me a couple of hours to read through the process and gain confidence to have a go. I watched a couple of videos to get the "How To" process down, read the conversations in the Forum on this topic and followed the instructions step by step in "Joomla For Dummies." The only thing I wasn't sure of was where to find the bit that goes between {youtube}the code for my you tube film{/youtube} in You Tube but logically it is just the number letter sequence in the specific You Tube Url for the film you want on your site. I did have to go into the plugin once installed, enable it and check the option to play the film automatically but apart from that, to my surprise it just worked. Haven't tried to use it for anything else yet but if you are a beginner you will be able to play You Tube films on your site. Install the plug in, create your article, pop in the code and there you have it. Thank you. Excellent Work!!!!!
Wow! You have no idea how long I searched before I found this little jewel called AllVideos! I needed an extension that would allow me to display all our videos in a gallery through a menu item. AllVideos not only provided that, but also a search, option to upload or link to our YouTube videos or other online video hosting sites, and sharing options! Love, love, love it! Thank you so much! Wish I had tried AllVideos FIRST!
It's a great extension and thanks for creating it but i cannot get it to play m4v video format
Owner's reply
Try other formats as well.
For example, download one of our demo videos located here: http://demo.joomlaworks.gr/images/stories/demo/videos/bunny.mp4
..and then use {mp4}...{/mp4} tags to display the video. If this video plays back nicely, than the problem lies on the m4v video codec used. It may not be supported by your browser or the codec used may not be web friendly (=not using H.264 for encoding).
very excellent. thanks to the developer. keep spirit create another project

Unless you used a wrong path for your MP3 file, then prefer to use MP3 files with CBR (constant bit rate) conversion. If the path to your MP3 file is correct and there was no playback, then this MP3 file must have used VBR (variable bit rate) conversion which all flash players hate unfortunately...
There are so many providers covered by this plugin.
Thank you for taking the time to create it.

great, works excellent. However, I'm having problems resizing the video - this is the code I'm using: {mp4}contact|300|200|autoplay{/mp4} and it will not show the video when I add this resizing and autoplay - perhaps I'm doing something wrong - I did try to get some help with this from the site but I haven't had any luck.
I have been using the AllVideo pluguin on my Joomla 1.5 site for a few months now and I love how easy it makes it to show a video on my site. The plugin installs easily, the documentation is great and even I can adjust the settings :) If you need to have video on your Joomla site, it doesn't get any easier than AllVideo. I highly recommend this plug-in.
I had to embed a vimeo video on a Joomla1.5 site Feb 2012 and didnt really know how as this was the first time I had been asked to do such a thing.
I came to Joomla Extensions and did a general search and found All Videos, read the docs and then downloaded it and installed it on the client's site. All I did was put and then the reference to the video at vimeo in here and adjust the default size of the video as it displays on the site and that was it.
Minutes afterwards, work done and bill soon to be on the way to the client.
You cant ask for better than a product as easy as this.
Thanks Joomlaworks! Score!
