I am offering users to share video links from various third party sites like youtube, vimeo etc.
I want to playback those videos on my site like pintrest and other websites are doing. I am not able to find out some free jquery plugin for this. Flowplayer etc are solutions but they are not free.
Any suggestions?
PS: I dont want to have a modal box or something.
Vimeo and YouTube both have embed APIs that you can use. So you could detect which service was used and then use the embed code for that service. For instance YouTube has a very easy-to-use
<iframe>embed method that would require only a small bit of logic on your-end.I’ve seen JPlayer used quite well but I don’t think it does a Flash video fallback. Other than that I know FlowPlayer and JWPlayer will work great but you have to pay to get rid of the logo (free if you don’t mind the logo).
