A New Plugin Developer Has Emerged...

It's been a while since a new Developer has traversed the maze and emerged with a viable plugin for Rapidweaver. That part of the Developer Community is a small group who have been able to successfully scale the mountain.

Welcome SymfoniP to this list. The first plugin is: symFlowPlayer

This new plugin creates a "media page" style in Rapidweaver that is easy to use and update. Store your movies and mp3 files on a server in a "warehouse" folder and simply link to them in symFlowPlayer.

Key Features:
✓ Playback FLV, F4V, H.264* mov, mp4, m4v and audio mp3
✓ Add content into Styled Text Header and Footer Areas
✓ One time setup and configuration.
✓ Variable Width and height settings for your gallery setup
✓ Full control of FlowPlayer control bar settings
✓ Use external warehoused urls (saves space in your RapidWeaver project, yes you can use local assets if you want to but this increases your project and publish time)
✓ Gallery page style
✓ Hover Title and Description captions
✓ Easily add you FlowPlayer commercial key and brand the Video Player with your own logo
✓ Automatic Generation of scaled Poster Image for the symFlowPlayer page.
✓ Works great with Pluskit to import into Blocks or Stacks

This new plugin, to me, replaces the aging Quicktime Plugin page style with something that works in all browsers and has a lot more functionality!

Kevin Burns and his partner Ronan have created a great first plugin. I know they have many more in store and I would not be surprised to see their second plugin arrive very quickly
