AllVideos, by JoomlaWorks - Joomla Extension Directory

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.

Very nice plugin



Posted on 19 November 2012
I've been looking for a multimedia plugin to work seamlessly with SobiPro, and this has been the best choice by far.



No hacking, no meddling with code, just simple syntax and there you go! An embedded video or music file within your SobiPro entry! And all this in a free extension.



Thanks a lot for a fantastic plugin. This is a must for any serious Joomla and SobiPro developer.

Just great



Posted on 10 November 2012
This extension is just great. I use it whenever a clients mention the word 'video'... It just works. The versatility in lay-out options and css styling could be better, but anything less than excellent would be unfair.

very interested

Tried out your extension earlier and must say made me very interested in it. The software was very easy to use and operate

One problem I experienced was that I had to uninstall my ad blocking software for it to work properly and it wasn’t able to play flv videos for some reason.

Overall, im satisfied with this component and have downloaded it already.

Thanks guys for this component

couldn't be easier



Posted on 20 October 2012
The only hitch - which wasted 15 seconds of my life to figure out (smiles) - is that I had to use the whole URL inside the node to embed the video in a player. I reckon this may have something to do with another plugin conflict, or some idiosyncrasy of K2.



I also use this for two clients running soundcloud collections - the html5 failback works seamlessly on iOs devices.



Many thanks JW...many, many thanks.

Couldn't be simpler



Posted on 10 October 2012
This is an excellent plugin. Easy to install and activate. Decent guidance to the simple code you need to add to your articles to embed video. Has worked flawlessly so far.

Good but...

Hi!

I like your com_ but I have a problem..



You write in the Features: "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."



I try to insert a link to a SWF but system say: "The file extension SWF is not allowed!" :(



Good with flv!!!

As usual

I use to add videos with aalvideo on Joomla 1.5 versions and it's the first time I use it for Joomla 2.5.



It stills great. Thanks a lot.

Franck

Nice and simple



Posted on 18 September 2012
I have been using this extension for more than a year now. Tried it with joomla versions 1.6 1.7 and now with 2.5 and it works really fine. I like it because it supports many formats and it is really easy to use even for someone who doesn't have much experience with html. Really straight forward and nice sort and clear documentation.



Really recommend it.

Great extension + it is free...



A big thank to the developers.
I'm sorry if I didn't get the features of AllVideos plugin. I wanted to display the video on module position. So I noticed it didn't work. I got a Custom Module from your website and it worked finally, but I decided not to use it right now. So I went to automatically uninstall the plugin and module and guess what? It deleted all my module settings for previous 3rd party and genuine modules. I'm sorry if messed something up myself but I strongly suggest to check the uninstall code for your tools!
Owner's reply: First off, the plugin has nothing to do with any module. So whatever it is you uninstalled and deleted other module settings is not related to AllVideos. If you want to use any "content plugin" (like AllVideos) inside a Custom HTML module, you need to enable the "Prepare Content" option in that module's parameters. I know the title of the parameter is a bit stupid - it could simply say "enable plugins". Try that, add the video plugin code and you should be fine.

Excellent!
