Media server web based software required

[ass17]

Hi,

 

We have a video server that plays MP4, FLV, Video_ts folders by calling VLC as the preferred playback.

 

The video are listed on a website that only works with Internet Explorer.

 

I need a cross browser media player that is web based to be able to play most video.

 

Any ideas?

We use HTML5 flowplayer here with mp4 videos, works on everything on any platform except for the opera browser. Has inbuilt embed codes which we use to display on vle, website etc...

Currently have a mac mini serving 200 videos, 9000 catalogued photos, 100 educational dvds to windows, iOS, macs, android, via all the current browsers. Very useful system...

 

did i mention it’s free?

I use Plex at home and absolutely love it. Even has WAF.

 

How do you find the naming / display / organisation of your own videos ? (As in my blu-ray rips are all catalogued but my home movies seem untidy)

Wondered how people manage videos in school.

We use JW Player to embed our videos into a WordPress based front-end. It handles FLVs and (increasingly) MP4s streamed from our Red5 media server. All three parts are open-source and were easy to integrate.

Sometimes plex picks up a key phrase in the description and plonks in the wrong data from imdb.com, but most of the time I just add the short jacket notes as a custom entry. Most education videos seem to be unregistered with imdb, so I follow plex’ help page on episodal ordering and scan the jacket as a custom poster cover:

And do the same with family videos, so each common relative is part of a family broadcasting studio . Plex is happy with that.
