Hello. I've installed the module and all work fine with the exception that even with the option "Enable Flash Menu" option checked no menu appears so users can not play, pause, stop, etc. I must be missing something very simple but I've been scratching my head for quite some time now. Hoping you have had inquiries for this before and can help.

Thank you in advance.

Please post a screenshot of the result you get when you *view* the node (not in edit mode).
But I suspect you're making a confusion between the video player menu and the Flash Player contextual menu...

Thank you for responding so quickly. I've attached the screenshot. What I am expecting to see is a play/pause button at the bottom but I guess my assumption is incorrect. From what you have written I see now that the Enable Flash Menu engages a contextual menu which allows users to right-click to play/pause the video. But I am hoping for a visible play/pause button—is this possible?

Thanks again.

What player did you set for videos?

I'm using JW Player (Mediaplayer 5.7) with the below PHP in CKEditor SWF settings.

return array(
'video/x-flv' => array(
'path' => 'sites/all/libraries/mediaplayer-5.7/player.swf',
'offsetHeight' => 24,
'fileName' => 'file',
),
'audio/mpeg' => array(
'path' => 'sites/all/libraries/mediaplayer-5.7/player.swf',
'offsetHeight' => 0,
'fileName' => 'file',
'defaultWidth' => 280,
'defaultHeight' => 24,
),
);

I have just updated to the latest JW Player 5.7 and the toolbar is displayed at the bottom of the video, as expected.
Could you temporarily switch to a default theme (Garland for instance) to see if player is displayed differently?
If possible, provide me with a URL to your test site so that I check it myself.

I don't know if this helps but if I remove the players configuration PHP code and just enter "return array ( );" in the CKEditor SWF settings it behaves the same way. Wouldn't I expect the video to not appear at all with this change?

I've included the page source while in Garland. Perhaps that will help. Thanks again for your assistance with this.

One of my replies didn't save here. I did try it in Garland and a couple other themes and the problem remains. Unfortunately I can not provide a URL as it is an intranet site for a University and I do not have authority to give VPN access. But I included the source in the reply above. Perhaps that will help.

Thank you.

Hey, you are not using any video player here: you are running your own SWF file NealBarnard.swf.
SWF are Flash animations: they may contain videos but are not videos themselves.
Videos files are FLV or MP4.

Thank you. I knew it was something simple I was overlooking. I really appreciate your help. All is working nicely now. Thank you.
