Others simply created a test post with the video they wanted. and then copied the source code from the page and put it into a text widget. Not the cleanest but it gets the job done.

Try to name the new one to just simple-flash-video and see if that takes care of things.

Here's a page with the 1.8 plugin installed http://test.curbsyde.com/test/?p=790 The code that post has is : [video filename=http://www.curbsyde.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/nzsi/si1.mp4 vid_image=http://floralloyd.smugmug.com/Motorcycles/AIO/nan/to-kathern/774266988_7wkoy-M.jpg /] And it just doesn't work. The links are good, and if I switch to plugin 1.7 it works well. There must be something I have thats conflicting. My theme is modularity from Graph Paper Press Cheers Joe Sorry, I ended up altering that page by accident when I was playing.

I want to use it on our site to host our own videos instead of embedding an external player @ www.curbsyde.com I've uploaded the plugin to a test WP site using the same theme, and am having a few issues with the shadowbox. Can be seen here http://test.curbsyde.com/test/?p=700 Any ideas? Cheers Joe Hi Josh,

Couldnt find anything wrong with my theme. I ended up installing another plugin which utilizes shadowbox, and SFV piggybacks off that, and now renders the videos properly. the stats however, still doesnt work This was the same problem I was having.

Can you please link to your blog where you are having this issue? Usually this is because the HEAD call is not made in your template or the WP plugin url did not get detected correctly.

It needs to be an h264 format which is sometimes called AVC to work. The Audio should be AAC and I suggest an MP4 container. Once you do this it should work fine with any file size as long as you have quick start enable when compressing. Please note that the longer the file, the longer it will take to start if you are not using a streaming server but that depends on your server speed and the vieweres internet connection speed.
