We make sure only one video per page autoplays. Note that mobile devices don't support autoplay.
Works for first 2 videos on the page only, to preserve your bandwidth.

Normally you have to hit a button in controlbar to turn on subtitles.
Will group images as well as videos into the same lightbox gallery. Turn off your lightbox plugin when using this. Also works with WordPress [gallery] galleries - these are automatically switched to link to image URLs rather than the attachment pages. (…)
[gallery]
Your gallery items will link to image files directly to allow this.
Stores the last video play position for users, so they can continue watching from where they left. It stored in usermeta for logged in users and in a localStorage or cookie for guest users. (…)
Following options are suitable for web developers and programmers.
Enable to force video size at cost of loosing the video responsiveness.
Normally the player CSS configuration is stored in wp-content/fv-player-custom/style-{blog_id}.css. We do this to avoid a big style tag in your site <head>. Don't edit this file though, as it will be overwritten by plugin update or saving its options! (…)
Allows HLS playback in all modern browsers. HLS normally plays only on iOS, Mac Safari and new Android versions. FV Player increases the compatibility by using Flash engine for HLS. With this option you can go even further and modern browsers supporting MediaSource will play HLS even without Flash. Make sure you setup the required CORS headers. (…)
This feature is designed for YouTube and Vimeo videos and works best for our licensed users who get these videos playing without YouTube or Vimeo branding.
Some themes show author bio on the author post archive automatically (Genesis framework and others). Or you can also just put this code into your theme archive.php template, right before while ( have_posts() ) is called:
while ( have_posts() )
<?php if ( is_author() && get_the_author_meta( 'description' ) ) : ?> <div class="author-info"> <div class="author-avatar"> <?php echo get_avatar( get_the_author_meta( 'user_email' ) ); ?> </div> <div class="author-description"> <?php the_author_meta( 'description' ); ?> </div> </div> <?php endif; ?>
We will be adding integration for it for popular user profile plugins.

...and also the YouTube links
If you use some special JavaScript integration you might prefer this option. Otherwise our JavaScript only loads if the shortcode is found in any of the posts being currently displayed. (…)

Setting a video splash screen from the media library will automatically make it the splash image if there is none.
Use if your live streams are not smooth. Adobe recommends to set bufferTime to 0 for live streams, but if your stream is not smooth, you can use this setting. (…)

If the featured image is not set, splash image of the first player will be used.
When sharing your post to Facebook the first MP4 video will be shared directly rather than the post excerpt. Requirements: video has to be on https:// and splash screen has to be present. Videos with download protection are automatically excluded. (…)

Adds the video meta data information for search engines.
Creates http://example.org/video-sitemap.xml which you can submit via Google Webmaster Tools. As feeds tend to be cached by web browser make sure you clear your browser cache if you are doing some testing. (…)

Secured Amazon S3 URLs are recommended for member-only sections of the site. We check the video length and make sure the link expiration time is big enough for the video to buffer properly.
If you use a cache plugin (such as Hyper Cache, WP Super Cache or W3 Total Cache), we recommend that you set the "Default Expiration Time" to twice as much as your cache timeout and check "Force the default expiration time". That way the video length won't be accounted and the video source URLs in your cached pages won't expire. Read more in the Using Amazon S3 secure content in FV Flowplayer guide.
Show Amazon S3 Browser in the "Add Video" dialog.
Here you can configure ads and banners that will be shown in the video.
