Free online media player
Why not try to make your homepage more alive ?
I was contacted by one of my customers about something I've never been involved in before. They had a video they wanted to be shown at their site. I thought of the most simple solution which is to upload the video and just link to it, but that wasn't the way they had planned it.
As most people they have also been made aware of he phenomonon, Youtube.com. And of course they wanted online, in browser, video. Now this was growing to be a problem for me as I had never done such a thing before, but luckily there is such things as open source, and people that gladly share what they've accomplished on the net.
A friend of mine shared this link with me: http://www.longtailvideo.com/players/jw-flv-player//, and I was eager to investigate. I went there and I downloaded the media player, in order to try it out.
And by just uploading this to my server, and having a browse at the readme file, and the setup wizard I was online showing video in no time, in a matter of minutes actually.
Now this isn't a thing intended for the use with sNews, I'm sure you get that, but it's not non-integratable as many other tools are. You just add the javascript call in the head tag of the index.php and then add the javascript that makes the player show inside an article or a page.
For a demo, if not finding anything on Jeroen Wijering's site, you could have a look at El Batto And The Shit where I installed it. No comments on managment issues on this one to me, you hear ;)
You need to have the latest Flashplayer for your browser and you can get it here
