Subject: [COREblog-en] flash in blog entry
Message-ID: <46B0E32D.9040704@brechmos.org>

Hi,

I am trying to get embedded flash going in a COREBlog2 blog entry.

So far, I have added the following to media_view.pt:

    <metal:commentform_macro define-macro="file_video_x_flv">
    <div class="contentsHanderItem">
            <object type="video/x-flv"
data="http://localhost:8080/Plone/++resource++flowplayer/FlowPlayer.swf"
                width="320" height="262" id="FlowPlayer">
                <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />

                <param name="movie"
value="http://localhost:8080/Plone/++resource++flowplayer/FlowPlayer.swf" />
                <param name="quality" value="high" />
                <param name="scale" value="noScale" />
                <param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
                <param tal:attributes="value string:config={loop:
'false', videoFile: '${obj/absolute_url}', autoPlay: 'false' };"
name="flashvars" value="" />
            </object>
    </div>
    </metal:commentform_macro>

And I added 'File:video/x-flv' to media_types.

To get the FlowPlayer, I added the latest Plone4ArtistsVideo Product.

As well, I added the MIME type x-flv.

I uploaded a FLV file as a File in COREBlog.  I said it was an x-flv
file (so that is good) and I was able to watch the video when I clicked
on the FLV file in the Content listing -> Files.   I then added the flv
as an object reference to a blog entry. 

On the entry page it shows the FLV file name on the right hand side (and
as a link). 

Based on some very simple tracking it seems to come up as a type
"Othrers" rather than file_video_x_flv.  So, I am not sure why it can't
figure out it is the type 'file_video_x_flv'??

I would really appreciate any help and suggestions on this!  I would
love to get it going.

Thanks,

Craig

I'm not sure if this is related, but I've been required to declare HTML safe elements to use
flash with embedded <object>. Else there're escaped...
To do this, go to your ZMI, then portal_transforms => safe_html, and add needed html elements.

Hope that helps.


Cheers,
Seb

I tried that and it did not seem to help.  Two things, the <object> tag
is used for quicktime movies and they seem to play just fine, as well,
it seems the problem comes before the <object> as the file type does not
seem to be determined correctly (it comes in as Othrers as opposed to
file_video_x_flv.

I *think* the problem has something to do with the determination of the
file type and passing the correct information to figure out which macro
to use (macros defined in media_view.pt). 

It seems getRefsByKind is the right place to start, but I am not sure it
is being used, if it is, I am not sure how things are passed around.

(I appreciate the thought below thought!!)

Any other ideas?

Message-ID: <46CAFC9B.9070005@brechmos.org>

Hi,

I was wondering what the timeline is to have a version ready for Plone

Thanks.... Craig

Hi all :-). This is Atsushi.

Of course, I know many of them are interested in Plone 3 integration of 
COREBlog2.

Actually, when the first Plone 3.0 beta released, I took a time for 
additional implementation. COREBlog2 became Plone 3.0 savvy at that 
time. But it seemed that some API change happened after that ;-(, so 
that COREBlog2 is not Plone 3.0 savvy now.

I have a plan to take time to fix the problem again. I guess it will be 
early or mid September.

Please be patient :-).

Message-ID: <6a9d8c4c0708310451w259f07a0yd6f9dfeee07dd3c7@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,

I've just upgraded from Plone 3.0 rc2 to the full Plone 3.0 release.
I've installed the root zeo cluster version and it's running on Ubuntu
(Feisty) Linux.

I've got COREBlog2 9.82b installed. On the rc2 version of Plone it had
a problem with Kupu which prevented me from saving new entries because
it didn't recognise the body content (which is partly why I've
installed the full release of Plone 3.0).

However, now I can't even create a new blog entry and get the following error:

--

Does anyone know of a fix for this?
