AllVideos 
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).

Now I design a web site based on K2 and allvideos.The video player work well. But the mp3 player can work in IE browser, It don't work in chrome browser. Does anyone can help me? some error message in chrome browser: The video could not be loaded, either because the server or network failed or because the format is not supported:
Excellent plugin. It worked right out of the box, the only thing I can't figure out is why I can't see thumbnail of the video if I shared the article containing it on facebook?
Is there something I should setup first?
thanks
That's because Facebook scans the entire Joomla! page where you've placed the video. Facebook cannot extract an image from the Flash based player used in AllVideos. Even if you use a video from YouTube or other third-party video service, this is still not possible.
I did not study in advance to notice it was using JW Player for flv and mov. On wmv it used Silverlight. The Silverlight player has very simple controls, and this is ideal for my situation.
We have a dozen sites up. We need videos on two of them. One will pull vids from a youtube channel, the other will pull vids from our own hosting service.
The site with 1.5.x will be converted to 1.7.x or 1.8 someday, so a solution that works now, and will also work later, is what I was looking for. This plugin seems ideal for that.
This is a false accusation. We're not using a watermark or link back to JoomlaWorks (as you let people assume). What you see -and obviously failed to understand- is that the plugin (it's not a module btw) is using the best Flash video/audio player in the market (for selected media types), which uses its logo for this free version. And they have every right to do so. If it's bothering you so much and you wanna get a license simply head over to http://www.longtailvideo.com/players/jw-flv-player/ - that wasn't difficult, now, was it?
Well, for one, wma is an audio format, not video. You obviously need WMV (for Windows Media Video) or (the best option) use MP4 encoding which is better and also mobile friendly ;) Depending on your operating system, you can find dozens of great free video encoders/transcoders to prepare your videos in mp4.
But can I use shadowbox together with allvideo?
What I want is to see a table of all my movies and when I click on one of them, the shadowbox is activated and plays the movie.
But i have one question. Why is there no simple way to align the video to the left or right of a article? By default it centers.
You can fully override the plugin's output by copying the /plugins/content/jw_allvideos/jw_allvideos/tmpl/ folder contents (not the tmpl folder) into /templates/yourTemplate/html/jw_allvideos/. If you do that you have full override capabilities in html and CSS too :)
area but can be view at the front-end.
But for mov video, the quicktime format, i cannot upload it to the server at the backend.
Moreover, i try to use the iphone to view the mp4 video, it also do not support.
Anyone can help me????????????????????????????????????????????????/
Any mp4 videos must use the h264 codec to be iPhone/iPad compatible. Most new video converters/exporters do that, so make sure your mp4 files use the right codec.
Regarding previewing issues with K2, I suggest downloading and using the K2 v2.5 RC from http://getk2.org (link bottom, right) which is fully compatible with this latest version of AllVideos.
