RE:Playing FLVs inside Kentico?

Hi Jason,

Since FLV format is (flash) video format you may need to use some player on your site which will play them (e.g.: http://www.jeroenwijering.com). You will upload your video files (FLV and SWF) to the site structure and finally you will use their live URL in the embedded HTML code. There is nice tutorial on following page: http://www.sothinkmedia.com/guide/putvideo.htm

For more information please see google.com:-)

Anyway, if you have any problem with integration of FLV player in Kentico CMS don't hesitate to ask.

Best regards
Ondrej Vasil

What about insert my FLV in "Media libraries" as an flv document ?

But Kentico gives me a "permanent link" with .aspx extension, and unfortunately the flash video player read only .flv files.

Can't we change a document permanent link or file extension in Kentico ?

RE:Playing FLVs inside Kentico?

I found a solution : using custom url extensions.

With this option I can use the permanent link of my .flv file (inserted via Media Libraries : abcdefghijkl-myVideo.aspx) :

- abcdefghijkl-myVideo.aspx doesn’t work in swf player
- abcdefghijkl-myVideo.flv works fine in swf player (using custom url extension .flv)

You can see the Kentico's documentation for use of custom extensions :
Chapter 3.4.11 Custom URL extensions and extensionless URLs
