DEPRECATION WARNING

This documentation is not using the current rendering mechanism and is probably outdated. The extension maintainer should switch to the new system. Details on how to use the rendering mechanism can be found here.

Users manual¶

Plugin FlexForm options¶

What to display¶

Define the display mode. It could be a single video player or a player with a playlist.

Video ID¶

Define a Brightcove Video Cloud Video ID (field is available for “Single video” display mode). You can use the Brightcove Video Cloud browser for selecting the video from your account.

Playlist ID¶

Define a Brightcove Video Cloud Playlist ID (field is available for “Playlist” display mode). You can use the Brightcove Video Cloud browser for selecting the video playlist from your account.

Override player width¶

This field allows to define a custom width for a player. In case this value is not set, the player width will be set to the default value, which is defined by the administrator during the extension installation process. If “Responsive player” checkbox is set, then this field value will be ignored and the player will take full width of the content zone.

Override player height¶

This field allows to define a custom height for a player. If not set, the player height will be set to the default value, which is defined by the administrator during the extension installation process. If “Responsive player” checkbox is set, then this field value will be ignored and the player height will be calculated automatically to match the the player width and ratio.

Responsive player¶

By enabling the responsive behaviour for the player, it will alter its size to fit the layout for the position it is used at. While this option is on, width and height parameters of the player are ignored.

Auto-play¶

Forces the video to begin to autoplay as soon as the player is loaded. This option is ignored on mobile devices due to technical limitations.
