Introduction

Quote from the original manual:

The AllVideos plugin began as an idea of how to bring all this "video sharing" hype (YouTube, Google Video etc.) to the Joomla! community in an easy manner, combining the most popular video providers, targeted for use by people that did not even know what HTML is!

The AllVideos Reloaded Plugin gives you the ability to embed online streaming videos inside your content (articles) as well as your own video or audio content that resides on your server. That means that you can still use, for example, YouTube to upload your videos and then embed (stream) them inside your site without eating your server's bandwidth or having to spend money on expensive video conversion software! You are now able to stream/play any type of video or audio content using simple tags, from content uploaded onto your server. Nice for quick podcasting, too! So besides being easy, the AllVideos Reloaded Plugin is smart, cheap and flexible content streaming for you!

Here is a short feature list:

1. Native support for Joomla! 1.5. No legacy mode required.
2. Over 35 video providers, including regional Google Video websites.
3. Own video or audio content streaming, for most media formats (.flv, .swf, .mov, .mp4, .wmv, .avi, .mpg, .mpeg, .rm, .ram, .wma, .mp3 etc.).
4. Master controls provide layout consistency on all media shown in your Joomla! website.
5. A CSS class for adapting the way videos are displayed through your template's CSS file. Handy for achieving different layouts on different categories/sections.
6. A "master" local video folder for storing your videos and displaying them with simple tags like {flv}my_trip_on_hawaii{/flv}.
7. A "master" local audio folder for storing your audio files and displaying them with simple tags, like {mp3}nadasurf-popular{/mp3}, with additional audio player parameters.
8. For finetuning of single videos, all parameters can be overridden in the tag.
9. Ability to provide your own logo overlay.
