Introduction

Video Players & Gallery, Embed & Include, Multimedia, Multimedia Players

AllVideos (by JoomlaWorks) is the universal media player for Joomla and a classic must-have extension for any Joomla based website.


Use the plugin to easily embed video & audio content from all major 3rd party media providers (in alphabetical order: Dailymotion, Facebook, Flickr, Mixcloud, SoundCloud, Twitch, Vimeo, YouTube) inside your Joomla articles, K2, Virtuemart, Kunena or any other Joomla component that supports "content" plugins.

Additionally, it allows you to playback any web-native 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 in Joomla loves it and so will you and your clients!
  • You use simple plugin tags like {youtube}https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0u_g6zNuP_I{/youtube} (or just {youtube}0u_g6zNuP_I{/youtube}), {mp4}summer_vacation_in_rome{/mp4} or {mp3}pixies_bonemachine{/mp3}.

FEATURES

  1. All major 3rd party media providers are supported: Dailymotion, Facebook (for videos), Flickr (for videos), Mixcloud, SoundCloud, Twitch, Vimeo, YouTube (single videos & playlists). Use simple plugin tags utilizing the full media page URL (e.g. {youtube}https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0u_g6zNuP_I{/youtube}) or just the ID from the media URL page (e.g {youtube}0u_g6zNuP_I{/youtube}).
  2. Stream your own media content using web-native video and audio formats like H.264/MPEG-4 (.mp4/.m4v/.m4a), WebM (.webm), Ogg Theora Vorbis (.ogg/.ogv/.oga), MP3 (.mp3), WAVE PCM (.wav) & FLAC (.flac), as well as generic containers like .avi & .mkv. For non web-native media embedded with older version of AllVideos (prior to version 5.0.0), which are not supported by modern browsers, a download message will be presented - this basically includes Flash Video (.flv/.f4v), ShockWave Flash (.swf), Windows Media (.wmv/.wma), QuickTime (.mov/.mpg/.mpeg/.3gp/.3g2/.aac), DivX (.divx) etc.
  3. Easily embed your media content either directly from your server or a remote server.
  4. Use custom preview (poster) images for self-hosted video & audio files. For videos specifically (and unlike any other similar solution in Joomla), AllVideos can auto-generate preview images from the 5th second of each video by utilizing modern browser features.
  5. Need a simple way to have random preview images for your self-hosted audio files? Enable the Unsplash.com integration and your audio files will use random music/audio related images as previews from the popular stock image service.
  6. Use AllVideos to display background videos with muted sound.
  7. 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 embedding media content!
  8. Easy, descriptive syntax for media embedding - {format OR provider}filename{/format OR provider}. You can also use syntax like {format OR provider}filename|width|height|autoplay{/format OR provider} (e.g. an "autoplaying" YouTube video with {youtube}he73js82|600|450|1{/youtube}) to display media at different dimensions.
  9. Uses MVC templating. Just copy the /tmpl folder included in the plugin, into your Joomla template's /html folder and rename it to "jw_allvideos", then style the output as you wish.
  10. Includes 3 templates: Classic, Framed and Responsive
  11. Fully responsive media playback when using the "Responsive" template.
  12. Uses the core Joomla updater.

COMPATIBILITY

AllVideos is fully compatible with Joomla versions 1.5, 2.5, 3.x & 4.x on servers running PHP 5, 7 & 8.

Forget it!

I downloaded and installed this for a J3.1.1 site. All I needed it to do was play a simple mp3 file...nothing else.

I tried and tried and tried for 4 1/2 hours to get it to work and all I would get was the player controls.

Nothing in their forum pertaining to this gets answered, I gave up and uninstalled it.

Joomla's "insert embedded media" option did exatly what I wanted with this MP3 file in less then 3 seconds.
Owner's reply: You obviously never bothered to read the documentation which outlines the use of a "root" path so you don't right long plugin tags in your content...

Easy and works



Posted on 30 May 2013
Does what it should do, easy to install and implement. Great work all around. Thanks.

Superb

Best video plugin



Posted on 28 January 2013
Best Joomla video plugin. I have been using All Videos for all my websites since 2010 - It's easy to use, FREE and the support team is constantly upgrading it.



It just works fine! Don't waste your time looking for another plugin to run your videos. Thank you.

Are you sure?

Perfect video on any browser



Audio with Chrome works



I have tested on firefox 17.0.1 and Safari 5.1.7 and Explorer 8 (it's not working audio plugin there)

Wonderful Extension



Posted on 05 December 2012
The extension itself is fantastic.. Had to play around inside of .js files to remove menu functionality but that wasn't too bad. I do have one question however for the developers of the plugin.



How can I go about removing the linkback logo to longtail within the video upon play? I am developing a site for a company and they are striving and stressing that they want to go as branded and "brandless" by others as possible.



If I could get a contact back on how this may be possible I would much appreciate it.



Other than that.. again, great plugin.
Owner's reply: You need to get the "commercial" version of the Longtail video player. Go to their site and purchase a license (it's cheap) and they will give you a new .swf file (=the player) to replace the one used in AllVideos. It's really simple.

Almost perfect

Allvideos is amazing... however i used it for months on a site and the videos through vimeo would play on ipads and iOs devices.. but no longer.. Ive tried everything to no avail, Just sad cuz the plugin is nothing short of awesome if it would play on mobile browsers

WORKING!



Posted on 04 December 2012
less than 30seconds, it works for 1.7/2.5! LIKE THIS :D

easy install



Posted on 03 December 2012
Being a turnkey person this was very easy to install. What has not been easy was having to remove code so you could make it not allow share, download or embed. Re-arranging the code to make hmtl5 be 2nd instead of first in the code so it works with all browsers.

The remaining issues I can't seem to resolve is getting a playlist and getting an image to display instead of a black image. If these last to issues get resolved then I would have nothing but glowing things to say!
