Adding a video player

[Sabbia]

Hi everyone!

I'm trying to add a video to my SmartGwt app, but I don't know how to start.

In my app, users can search for a word pronounced in a video. Results are displayed in a TileGrid (one snapshot for each video), and what I want to do is, by clicking in one of the pictures, show the video that the snapshot references.

First thing I'm trying is to use a Flashlet, I've read that I have to add this line in the xml file:

<inherits name="com.smartclient.theme.enterprise.com.smartgwt.SmartGwtPluginBridges"/>

but when I do it I get an error, "unable to find". Do I really have to inherit this module?

I don't know if it's important: I've thought about using the Flowplayer to show the video.

I really beg your help, it's the last thing to finish my tesis (and so, University) :)

Ah, my SmartGWT version is 2.4.0.

Thank u very much

Well, after days trying, I've found the solution just after asking for help.

As I think this can be helpful for someone else, just say that Flowplayer is the absolute solution. The only thing you have to do is to download it and take a look to the example attached in the download. Adding a js, and a couple of lines, and u turn your gray and rude face in a smiling one: you have your videos on your application.

I hope it will be useful.

Greetings!!
