Inline video?

Sorry to be such a newb but, I simply do not understand how to place an inline file — in this case, an .mp4.

Yes, the
Default Inline File Extensions has been added to include “.mp4”

Yes, the video file is in the directory: /wp-content/plugins/s2member-files

Am i missing something?

Hi James,

Are you trying to play a video on the page? If so, you need to be using a video player, like JW Player, for that. The “inline” setting is for things like PDFs, where you might want to have the PDF load directly in the browser (inline) instead of prompting the user to download the file to their computer.

If you try to open a video file “inline”, it may or may not work: It will all depend on the user’s browser. Some web browsers can play video files, some can’t. But if you’re just trying to show the video on a WordPress Post/Page, then you need to use a plugin to do that. Please see Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Download Options -› JW Player® & RTMP Protocol Examples.

Sorry Raam, i meant to say ’embedded’ video… i’m having no luck at_all with the posted code for jwplayer. My wsysiwyg editor is disabled … i can indeed link directly to the files in a browser and the player is in the right location. This is frustrating.
