Videos Being Watched Right Now...

[sunshine]

Does anyone one have a similar script that would work on PC and Mac and also supported by the script creator? -- at least where they don't ignore your questions after you've paid for it.
I'll be glad to pay to have this work -- so much time has been wasted trying to get it to show up on Macs and galnet has ignored my requests for help.

Thanks

Hmm... EDIT - Duplicate post for some reason.

I'm not trying to defend galnet (ok maybe I am), but SWF files are universal. The compatibility depends on your browser. For example, your server either runs LINUX or Windows. So it's not your local OS that makes it not show.

Are you using Safari? If not, please post what browser you're using.
Chances are, you need to update your flash player.

If galnet's demo worked (i.e you can see it on other sites) then it's the code you're using on your site. Make sure you use BOTH the <object> and <embed> tags, as some browsers won't show it right (including Internet Explorer) without both tags.

If you are not seeing it at all, then check you uploaded the file in the right place. (I.E http://www.site.com/file.swf) and make sure your EMBED and OBJECT tags point to "file.swf" not "folder/file.swf".

If none of this helps, PM me and I will get it working for you.

Thanks a lot ptube, I'll try your suggestions. I'm using firefox, and as I said, it's visible on other websites. I followed all instructions in the Readme file and have been baffled for weeks.
I'll give it another shot.

cheers.

This is driving me nuts. It shows up on the pc. On other sites, it shows up on the Mac, but not on my site. I've been struggling with this for over a week. :(

Here's the code copied from the readme file:

<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0" width="550" height="140" id="recently viewed videos" align="middle">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<param name="movie" value="recentplayer.swf?x=recentlyviewed.php&t=Videos Being Watched Right Now..." />
<param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" />
<embed src="recentplayer.swf?x=recentlyviewed.php&t=Videos Being Watched Right Now..." quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="550" height="140" name="recently viewed videos" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
</object>

<script language="JScript" type="text/jscript" src="{$baseurl}/js/ClickFix.js"></script>

Hi,

I try my hardest to reply to all support requests, please note that I have a life as well. The coding has been sucessfully installed onto over 50 websites, so I can't really understand why you are having issues.

What I would suggest you try is in the coding replace:

<script language="JScript" type="text/jscript" src="{$baseurl}/js/ClickFix.js"></script>

Change this to

<script language="JScript" type="text/jscript" src="http://www.yourdomain.com/js/ClickFix.js"></script>

Changing the part: http://www.yourdomain.com to your actual domain

I was currently waiting on my laptop being repaired or replaced which has now happened, so I will be starting work on a newer version within the next few days.

Is all else fails try the code below: This is still in testing!

<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0" width="550" height="140" id="recently viewed videos" align="middle">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<param name="movie" value="recentplayer.swf?x=recent.php&t=Videos Being Watched Right Now..." />
<param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" />
<embed src="recentplayer.swf?x=recent.php&t=Videos Being Watched Right Now" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="550" height="140" name="recently viewed videos" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
</object>

</object>

One small minor change. the reference to recent.php > recentlyviewed.php

Works like a charm!

OK I noticed just a small mistake in the above code this has now been fixed, and I'm pleased to say that the code below should work for all version of vShare and Firefox:

<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0" width="550" height="140" id="recently viewed videos" align="middle">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<param name="movie" value="recentplayer.swf?x=recentlyviewed.php&t=Videos Being Watched Right Now..." />
<param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" />
<embed src="recentplayer.swf?x=recentlyviewed.php&t=Video s Being Watched Right Now" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="550" height="140" name="recently viewed videos" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
</object>

Cheers Gary for making me aware of my mistake.. !
