Features

BlueSpice Player is a video player that enables you to play all the usual HTML5 video formats in your wiki.

• Activated with the <showtime>Video.mp4</showtime> tag
• Settings:
  • change the size
  • start the video immediately (autoplay)
  • play the video in a loop
• Supported formats: mp4, ogv, ogg, flv and webm
• It is possible to include multiple videos on one page
• In IE and flv, the HTML5 player falls back to a Flash version (default in VideoJS)
• For compatibility reasons, bs: jwplayer is also supported as a tag

In the user settings (Special:Preferences) under Appearance, users can set if the videos should start automatically.
