AllVideos (by JoomlaWorks) is truely THE all-in-one media management solution for Joomla! and a classic must-have extension for any Joomla! based website.
You can use the plugin to easily embed videos hosted on popular services like YouTube, Metacafe, Vimeo (and many more) inside your Joomla! articles (content items). Additionally, it allows you to playback almost any video/audio filetype directly from your server or a remote server, giving you the competitive edge when it comes to rich media content.
--- WHY ALLVIDEOS? ---
- You don't have to copy/paste huge blocks of HTML code, just to get a video from YouTube to playback on your Joomla! website! Your WYSIWYG editor loves it and so will you and your clients!
- You use simple and descriptive plugin tags like {youtube}heu37ej3qs{/youtube}, {flv}batman_darknight{/flv} or {mp3}pixies_bonemachine{/mp3}.
--- HOW TO GET THE MOST OUT OF ALLVIDEOS ---
AllVideos is basically smart, cheap and now flexible content streaming for anyone:
- You can use, for example, YouTube to upload your videos and then embed them inside your site without consuming your server's bandwidth or having to spend money on expensive video conversion software!
- You can upload nearly any type of video or audio content and display them on your website, coming either directly from your server or from a remote server!
--- FEATURES ---
1. Dozens of video providers supported, including localized versions of YouTube and Google Video (e.g. es.youtube.com).
2. Stream your own media content, using the most popular video or audio formats for the web (flv, swf, mov, mp4, wmv, wma, mp3, 3gp, divx). You can even use high-definition videos!
3. Easily embed your media content either directly from your server or a remote server!
4. Simple controls inside the plugin's parameters page provide layout consistency on all the videos shown in your Joomla! website. Set your preferences in seconds, publish the plugin and you're ready to start streaming content!
5. Easy, descriptive syntax for media embedding - {format/provider}filename{/format/provider}. You can also use syntax like {format/provider}filename|width|height|autoplay{/format/provider} (e.g. an "autoplaying" {youtube}he73js822|600|450|1{/youtube}) to display videos at different dimensions!
6. Skinnable! AllVideos uses MVC templating. Just copy the /tmpl folder included in the plugin, move it to your template's /html folder and rename it to "jw_allvideos", then style the output as you wish. The good thing about MVC templating is you don't have to worry about future updates breaking your styling.
7. New features include: "embed box", link to download video, "dim lights".

First of all, thanks for this extension. It's really easy to use, installed out of the box without any problems.
The only problem I see it's when you embed YouTube videos, the full screen function doesn't work. I know that you offer the lightbox popup and that we could fix this adding "allowfullscreen = true" but it's just a suggestion.
Sry for my english, isn't my native language.

I am designing my first site - no computer background or anything. I just found out what a cPanel was today. Everything by JoomlaWorks has been easy to run. I have a video on my website!
If you are a real newby like me - the directions for the plugin item mention "additional resources:" - "AllVideos Documentation" - click and you will find instructions and the tags to put into your articles.
Awesome!! Super easy!!

I found that this extension doesn't work for modules. Maybe the author include a tutorial about how to include media files in modules. Thanks

This is how it should be done.
Include this with JOOMLA INSTALL!
I have Joomla experience since day one and I work in the industry. I have tried quite a few and I am picky, yes picky. I expect it to work thats my first rule. Way to go, this works, and has features too!

Although it is quite a nice plugin to get flv displayed on your website, it is impossible to find out how to give a video a different size than the default one specified in the parameters of the plugin.
This is really annoying and makes me want to look for a different plugin....

I downloaded and it worked well right off the bat. My only negative is that it does not support m4v files. One it does that it gets a Great from me.

I would have given this plugin a full 5 stars if they gave me a way to remove the embed tab and also choose weather or not the controls were displayed.
Otherwise, this plug in is absolutely awesome. It's extremely easy to install and use and it works perfectly for simply adding video to your articles.

Great video plug in. I am using it in my site to show you tube videos. One catch...don't seem to be able to show all the vidoes as a thumbnail. That would be nice or may be I do not know how to show it. Thanks
bhavani: Go to Mambots Administration and Publish the "AllVideos (by JoomlaWorks)".
Now, it would be good the possibility to resize a video inseide an article, I mean, the default size es the one you specify in the general configuration, but I want to put videos in modules and some others in articles, but all of them have the same size because of the general plugin config...

According to the instruction given, i have installed allvideos successfully and also created a directory called videos in images/stories, all these things went fine. Later I have edited one of the article by adding {wmv}funvideo{/wmv} this, the problem is - unable to play the video. Can anybody help in resolving this issue.

For all Portuguese people who wanna make use of it in your own sites with videos from sapo, just edit this file jw_allvideos_sources.php and add this line in bettween the other supported sites:
// SapoVideo
"sapo" => "
",
then just use the tag like this on your joomla site:
{sapo}pHlRAFgsU6Mbs7WzahHH{/sapo}
pHlRAFgsU6Mbs7WzahHH is the id from the url like this http://videos.sapo.pt/pHlRAFgsU6Mbs7WzahHH
so just copy the id from the movie and use the sapo tags.
Have fun with it :-D)

Installed this plugin this last week... Joomla! 1.0.13 Stable.
Works fine in Firefox and Safari. Get a javascript error ("Error on Page") in IE6 and IE7 when static content page loads. Mambot is set for {flv} (flash video) files.
This problem has been around for a while apparently. Not sure if the authors have much interest in getting this fixed or not... which is too bad because it seems to do a good job, except for this bug. Apparently 2.5.1 works without the bug.... go figure.
You may want to seek an alternative to this plugin... I have a mission critcal prject where this error is unacceptable.
Line: 1
Char: 153
Error: 'null' is null or not an object
Code: 0

Was looking for an alternative to avre for module usage as that was slowing down my site immensely. This does the trick perfectly in conjuction with the UCD module (read note in the forum).
I just wish there was some way we could turn off those options that youtube throws up for alternate videos - they keep popping up disturbing the video if your mouse hovers around the bottom of the module.
