Possibility to hide bar ?

Permalink
Hi,

I'm trying to play an h.264 mp4 movie, we want it to start autoplay and not loop.

We also need to hide all controls from user, since it's used only as a banner, without sound. Even on mouse over, no controls at all.
Is it possible out of the box or by editing some parts ?
Thanx for your reply...

Here's what Joshua told me :

I just updated the Flash Video add-on to 1.7.1.

There are two parameters, "alwaysHideControls" or "alwaysShowControls", which can now be used to force the controls to stay hidden or to stay shown. These are not settings in the block, but can be added using a custom template. If you haven't made a custom template before, here's the drill:

- Create the directory /blocks/flash_video/templates
- Copy "view.php" from /packages/flash_video/blocks/flash_video into your new directory
- Rename your new file (like "no_controls.php") then edit it
- There's a list of parameters which are sent to the SWF file. Add "alwaysHideControls" with a value of 1.
- After adding a Flash Video block, click on it and select custom template

In the custom view.php, I used:
var parameters = {};
parameters.allowFullScreen = true;
parameters.alwaysHideControls = 1;

with no success. Jack, is that where you placed it?

Thanks!
