Im looking for an alternative to simply embedding swf files using plain HTML and the browsers built-in player. Can anyone suggest a nice skinned or nice looking swf player to use on a website?
I recommend JW Player. The official site is http://www.jeroenwijering.com/. On the site there're also tutorials about how to embed it.
The nice thing about the jw player is that you can customize the skin to give it any look that you want. There are also a lot of already pre-built skins
If you want to play only audio files. You can try the yahoo media player implemented at my blog below. In my signature. For me, it is a good player but rarely used by webmasters.
I m quite impressed with features! could it able to convert clips in .wmv to .flv for online web streaming
jeroenwijering player is becoming the defacto for many sites. It is one of the best in the open source market today.
Yeah I like JW player, but it doesnt play swf files, just flv I believe. As of now, Im stuck using an AJAX shadowbox type of thing.
I recommend Hdwebplayer, yes.... I wanted to have a flash player for my website. When I had a look at HdWebplayer, the player was fantastic!, the player really impressed me. It had all the options I looked out for. I am amazed with the support they provided me; the installation was user-friendly and it’s very easy to install.
