hello,
i've downloaded and installed the plugin.
i'm not too sure on where do i put in my media files?
and also, how do i create a content to play files?
thanks.

Please read the manual first.
You can find the instruction at your joomla admin panel from the menu Mambots -> Site mambots select AllVideos Plugin and there you will find the instructions in tabs.

yes i have read the manual but i dont see an image folder?
and which type of content do i select exactly?

The images folder is not in the all video plug in folder its in images/stories/videos/ folder in the root of your joomla installation, there is where you put your videos. If you want to change the path just change the Local Video Folder option in all video plug in settings.

Supported file formats

You can upload on your Joomla! website almost any type of video format used today on the web. From Windows Media to QuickTime, Flash, DivX or Real Media and of course MP3! To be exact you can stream any of the following file formats with the AllVideos Plugin (from your own or a remote server):

• .flv (the recommended format for video streaming)
• .swf
• .mov (second best recommended format for video streaming)
• .mp4 (supports both video and audio as a format)
• .wmv (.asf or .asx are not included since they are considered "dead" formats)
• .avi (utilizing any codec, this includes DivX)
• .mpg and .mpeg
• .rm and .ram (Real Media - supports both video and audio as a format)
• .mp3
• .wma

i read that i'll need to select a type of content to display a video.
which is that exactly?
there's blog, etc.

oh now i understood, you can put all videos in static content and content items.

so, i'll have to select content-static content manager-new?

Yes or a Static Content or a Content Item

ok i managed to create a static content and placed this:
{mp3}deems{/mp3}

but only the player shows but the file does not load?

Can you provide me a url please?

i'm sorry but i'm hosting it locally.

i placed the file in my joomla folder (joomla/images/stories/videos) but the joomla folder is actually called dvls though i dont think that'll be an issue.

i created static content and placed the code like the instruction indicated.

but it does not play ???

can you make your apache so i can access to it online by your ip? Without a url i can't do much...
