Wowza HTML5 player support

jbmusic

Dear members,

We're using the ja-magz-ii template in our local public radio joomla website for text and video content.
Video content is currently published using the Youtube setting. Other options are local, Vimeo, Youku and other.

Recently we started using our own media streaming. server running Wowza.
Wowza has a great player the we would like to use in stead of Youtube.
The Wowza player is an embeddable light weight HTML5 Player.
We tried using this in the "others" setting with no succes. A sample scripts below

Sample code:


<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
    <title>Wowza player</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>LOZ Player test Theaterweekend in The Lux - LOZ</h1>
    <a href="index.html">Home</a>
    <div id="playerElement" style="width:640px; height:390px; padding:0;"></div>
      <script type="text/javascript" src="//player.wowza.com/player/latest/wowzaplayer.min.js"></script>
        <script type="text/javascript">
WowzaPlayer.create("playerElement",
    {
    "license":"<removed>",
    "sources":[{
    "sourceURL":"https://5e2b3e3114872.streamlock.net:1443/vod/mp4:Theaterweekend in The Lux - LOZ.mp4/playlist.m3u8"
    },
    {
    "sourceURL":""
    }],
    "title":"Theaterweekend in The Lux - LOZ",
    "description":"",
    "autoPlay":true,
    "mute":false,
    "volume":75,
    "posterFrameURL":"https://www.lokaleomroepzeewolde.nl/images/logo/Logo_2019.png"
    }
);
</script>
</body>
</html>

Could the Wowza player become an option?
Suggestions for work arounds other than iFrames are welcome!

Hi
Sorry its not possible to add new player in list as custom,, it needs fresh codes to make it stable for your site videos, its something that fall in personal custom works.
About the video code, kindly add the code in article source code, as this will not work via JA Content type, because it does not support adding code like you shared.

You can add your custom video code in article source codes that work as normal article not video types. as Video content article does not support this custom code.

Hi Pankaj,
Thank you for your response. We would like to keep our current look and feel and workflow. Therefore we would consider to get some custom work done.

Could you send us a quote for that?

Hi
Sorry we do not offer custom works services. You need to hire a developer for such customizations.
You may submit requests on site like this

Hi,
We're found a way to embed some html and scripting code in the Video players Others function with a little hack in the video-player.php script of the template. However this is non flexible solution.
Could you suggest a coding example to play an url like using the Video Player Others option:
https://5e2b3e3114872.streamlock.net:1443/vod/definst/mp4:Test/sample.mp4/playlist.m3u8

Hi
This is not from the template, It work with JA Content type that is completely different, you can test your code on the default Joomla template like Protostar, if it work on that, the same will work on JA Magz template.
