Flash Video on Products page

I use zen cart 1.3.7

Hello I'm trying to include a video in product page, so I have seen this post and I've tried, but appears the blank page. So I've deleted folder and files.

I would know because I deleted the folder ss and video, why how if I go on admin who is online I see that someone is seeing for example

/includes/languages/italian/magic/ss/video1282.swf

also if I don't have this video and I don't have anymore the folder ss and video because I have deleted.

:flex::blink:

I have seen, it because I have modified the tpl_product_info, I reset with the initial setting and so good :smile:

Can someone post a link to check how this looks?
TIA

Ight so I figured it out, basically what I did was insert my flash code into the tpl_product_info_display.php page and then concatenated the product id onto the end of the swf file. This enables you to have a unique video playing based on each product id. So my code looked like this:

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="includes/languages/english/ss/video<?php echo $products_id_current; ?>.swf" width="368px" height="280px"> <param name="movie" value="includes/languages/english/ss/video**<?php echo $products_id_current; ?>**.swf" /> <param name="quality" value="high"><param name="BGCOLOR" value="#000000"> <param name="menu" value="false"> </object>

where exactly on my tpl......should I place this code?

ok, i cant get this to work either. i am posting the initial code in my tpl_product_info_display and putting it in my overrides folder includes/templates/mytemplate/templates directory, and the whole right hand side of my store dissapears. by putting this code in their i am breaking the page, so where exactly does it need to be in the code? please help i really need this

Does anyone know the PHP code to put into tpl_product_info_display.php to conditionally show this Flash Video based on the existence of the .flv file?
Does anyone know the PHP code to use the preview image file name (minus the .jpg) instead of the product ID as the Flash file name?

It would be greatly appreciated in the form of a paypal payment thank you.

Hi its working but the video is playing continuously. Anyone know how to add play and pause button so that only when we click the video plays.

I have found the holy grail to embed flash or others files for vid formats a wonderful player

http://www.platipus.nl/flvplayer/download/1.0/index.php

it is really simple follow simple directions, change the screen size if needed in the code works with EI8 and FF. Has a nifty auto-start feature if needed and of coarse stop and start features as well. And the best part is it is freeee. No license to purchase. There is a donation button. This is a must for people that want flv, swf, ect to work with a player.
