Making a video sharing site, need a videoplayer

Question

I want a videoplayer like youtube\'s on my site. What should I look for? I\'m making a video sharing site in PHP with MySQL.

Should I look into flash? Maybe you know

Answer 1

Have you gone through these http://www.vidiscript.com/, http://www.phpmotion.com/ and http://osshare.sourceforge.net/. These are clones of youtube-like video media sharing sites. The source code is freely accessible I guess - you can get some help from it.

Answer 2

Flowplayer is by far the best I've found. It has a very nice Javascript API that lets you manipulate the video player in every single way you could possibly want.

Answer 3

uff you have lot of work to do.

FlowPlayer its an opensource flash based player can you customize and use it in your site

Answer 4

What you are looking for can be searched for on Google for as either an "flv player" or a "flash video player component". E.G. a video player skin or player with media list.
