Acknowledgments

A copy with minor adjustments of the great MP3 Player plugin.

Features

Plays wmv and wma files in an embedded player using JW WMV PLAYER.

Notes

  • Plays WMV and WMA files.
  • You can customize every aspect of the player by editing wmvplayer.cs in notepad
  • By default the player size is 320x240 for wmv and 320x20 for wma and it doesn't autoplay

Installation

  1. Download the zip.
  2. Unzip using any archive manager. At the top of unzipped package you should have two items: "wmv" folder and "wmvplayer.cs" file.
  3. Copy wmvplayer.cs into your BlogEngine extensions directory (/App_Code/Extensions).
  4. Copy "wmv" folder with all it content into root of your BlogEngine application - this is where you'll upload your wmv/wma files for embedding also.  Make sure ASP.NET has at least read permissions on this folder. (you can delete the test files after you verify it works - they're not needed)

Using

  1. Create a blog post. Add this line anywhere in the post: [ wmv:test.wma ] without the spaces
  2. You should see something like the embedded player below
