Hi!

Using audio player with mp3 local file, media controls are automatically hidden when cursor exit player. It's possible to get media controls always visible?

Thanks!

I've finally solved this issue myself. I've edited plugins/content/jw_allvideos/jw_allvideos/includes/sources.php file and add this line in the clapprEmbed block:

hideMediaControl: false,

Is possible to add a plugin option to control this?

Thanks!

Thank you Carlos for your feedback.
This is an enhancement that is worth looking into.

This is a problem, not a request for an enhancement.

I have been using this plug in for years without issue. The player controls for audio files were always visible, as they should be. The controls for videos would Auto hide, as they put to, after a few seconds.

Suddenly, however, the auto hide behaviour is happening for all files. I need the previous behaviour, which distinguishes between audio and video files. Not the same behaviour for each.

Can the software developer restore the functionality that already existed in previous versions of the software?

As mentioned earlier, you can post this is as a bug or a feature request on our repo.
Furthermore I want to thank you for your feedback.

Please, can you post exactly the correct block here?
Thanks

Yes, of course, this is the code:

It appears that there is a commented line in the source code already refering to JWPLAYER_CONTROLS but there is no language string for it or a field defined in the xml file.
There are more than one instance of JWPLAYER_CONTROLS in sources.php and there may be a reason it was commented and left out.
Needs testing as it may have broken something else we are not aware of

Thanks a lot

Same issue here. Only black rectangles on my website. Videos worked fine (Youtube), but the plugin’s appearance for audio files was horrible. Changing the sources.php file did not do the trick for me; I had to increase the height to at least 50 pixels for the audio player (whereas before it was only 24), but still there was only one centered play button. The other controls appeared after clicking it. That wasn’t an option for me. Besides that, doubling the height messed up the page layout. So here’s what I did: uninstall version 4.8 and then install version 4.7 that I still had on my pc. Works like a charm now.

I have the same issue. I tried rolling back but that didn't work. The audio plays but there are no controls. I do have admintools installed. Do I need to create an exception rule for the htaccess file?

Hello ! Same problem after update. Thanks to Carlos for its idea (adding a line in sources.php). It helps before to have an update to repair this bug.
Yes, it's necessary to increase the height of the box (for me : 64px).
Yes, first we have only the arrow, controller appears only after clicking on the arrow. But it's beter than nothing.

Yes, there is a commentated line in sources.php, the same line hideMediaControl. It seems the corresponding setting in the plugin is missing, no ?

I compare with the file from an older version. This line wasIn the new file, this line is only there in theJW Player embed templates for $jwPlayerEmbed and $jwPlayerEmbedRemote.

I see an other difference between both files : in the new version there are no '' around source, poster, .... Why ?

thanks a lot !

Hello, JWPLAYER_CONTROLS refers to JWPlayer, the main player is now Clappr. In the sources file you can manually select which player to use

github.com/joomlaworks/allvideos/blob/master/plugin/jw_allvideos/includes/sources.php#L155-L156

Patch to show correct audio player height of 84px

In AllVideos plugin configuration:
Default height (in px) for audio player: 84 (that should now be the default)
Display JW Player controls: yes (here the developer could remove "JW")


In sources.php:
$clapprEmbed = "
...
hideMediaControl: !{JWPLAYER_CONTROLS},
...
$clapprEmbedRemote = "
...
hideMediaControl: !{JWPLAYER_CONTROLS},
...


In responsive template.css:
...
.avAudio .avPlayerContainer .avPlayerBlock > div {min-width:100%!important;width:100%!important;height:84px!important;}
...

To fix also the manual download height in responsive template.css:

...
.avAudio .avPlayerContainer .avPlayerBlock > div {min-width:100%!important;width:100%!important;height:84px!important;}
.avAudio .avPlayerContainer .avPlayerBlock .avDownloadLink {height:24px!important;}
...

Thanks :)

I had the same problem with only black rectangles, and after reinstalling the 4.7 version everything is back working again.
Thanks a lot for sharing.

I do hope the developer fixes this in the later versions.

Hi again Krikor,
I didn't hear back from you, so have now downgraded to 4.7 again as this is a live site.
Let me know if and when you need to look at this, and I can upgrade again accordingly.
