All Video Share – Player Plugin Demo
This article demonstrates how the Player - All Video Share content plugin embeds videos directly inside a Joomla article using the avsplayer shortcode. Make sure the plugin is enabled under System → Manage → Plugins → "Player - All Video Share".
1. YouTube Video
Embedding a YouTube video by passing its page URL:
YouTube videos can be added quickly without downloading or hosting the video on your own server. Simply provide the YouTube video URL in the src parameter.
2. Vimeo Video
Embedding a Vimeo video the same way:
The plugin also supports Vimeo videos, allowing you to display externally hosted content while keeping the video player integrated into your Joomla article.
3. Self-Hosted MP4 Video
Playing a self-hosted MP4 file from your own server:
For self-hosted videos, you can use the videoid parameter to load a video from your All Video Share media library. This is useful when you want complete control over your video files and hosting.
4. Add Text Between Video Players
You are not limited to placing videos one after another. You can add headings, descriptions, images, lists, or other article content between each video player.
For example, you can introduce a video with a short description explaining what viewers can expect to see. This makes the article more informative and provides useful context around the embedded video.
5. Multiple Video Formats in One Article
All Video Share makes it possible to combine different video sources within the same Joomla article. You can display YouTube, Vimeo, and self-hosted videos together without needing separate articles for each video.
This is particularly useful for creating video tutorials, product demonstrations, video galleries, reviews, training materials, and other multimedia content.
6. Customize the Player Width
The width parameter can be used to control the player width. For example, setting the width to 600 or 600px allows you to fit the video neatly within your article layout.
You can place additional paragraphs before or after the player to create a natural flow between your written content and videos.
Conclusion
The Player - All Video Share plugin provides a simple way to embed videos directly into Joomla articles using the avsplayer shortcode. Whether your video is hosted on YouTube, Vimeo, or your own server, you can combine video players with regular Joomla article content to create engaging multimedia pages.
Experiment with different video sources, player widths, headings, and descriptions to create a customized video experience for your visitors.
