CommonSpot Elements

Media File Player

Use this element to embed an audio or video media player in a Commonspot page. The element has one required script parameter - "link" - which is the full URL path to the file.  In the following example, we've included the URL for an MP3 file hosted in SCU's iTunesU store.

 
 

There are two optional parameters for this element; "width" and "height".  The default settings for the video player dimensions are 400 x 330, and 400 X 20 for audio.  You might want to change the width settings if you're including this element in the right column of a page - in that case, a width setting of "160" would be appropriate.

This element currently supports MOV (Quicktime) and SWF and FLV (Flash) video formats, and MP3 audio only.
