Longtail Flash Video Player

Sunday, January 31, 2010

If you're looking for a great customizable flash video (.flv) player for your website, LongTail Video has the perfect solution.  I've been using this little number on a few different sites (weddingsbyday.com, braunfilm.com) lately and I couldn't be happier.  You can specify a still image, a link, the resolution and if you really want to get fancy an XML playlist.

This player also has some great plugins so you can throw ads in there to support your site.  There are also a number of different player skins available for download OR you can quickly skin it yourself to match your site's colors.  If you're tired of hearing "I don't have [Windows Media Player plugin/Quicktime plugin]" get this player and startusing quick-loading flash video!
