Hello JasBur,
Thanks for your comment! TVsPlanet have more or less 225 channels now and I have more 800 in my list (just to start). Actually I'm working on the french TVs section and after that I want to complete the Brazil section. I have A LOT of channels and country to add. My goal is to finish the v 1.0 of the site under 3 months.
All videos in modules or content are embeded with html code. I made two images for the top and the footer for player. I'm not using any addon (module or component) for that because I need flexibility. Moreover, all contents in every pages are created in html and javascript code with editor disabled.
What type of videos do you want to display in your site?
Cheers!

Haha. Funny James! ;D LOL Franck it is funny that you said Cheers at the end of your reply. The videos are of my Gyms Cheerleading Teams.
The website is http://www.ctspirit.info. Under latest news I have videos of one our teams already. To do this I am using the allvideo plugin to feed the videos from a local server or another server. I just would like to add videos to the front page.
Thanks guys for the quick reply.
You guys are awesome.

JasBur,
You can use the allvideo plugin to display videos on the main page if you want.
In my site, I display videos from another servers; then I'm not sure how to "build" the streaming.
However, If you want to display your videos with Windows Player, you can try this:
1- encode your video in wmv format (special streaming format) with windows media encoder. e.g. video1.wmv
2- open notepad and add this code:Then, save this file with asx extension (video1.asx)‹ASX version = "3.0"› ‹TITLE›Title‹/TITLE› ‹ENTRY› ‹REF HREF = "http://yoursite.com/video1.wmv" /› ‹/ENTRY› ‹/ASX›
3- Turn off the editor and add this code (just modify the url for the asx file and the dimensions of the player):<!-- Stream Code Begin --> <OBJECT id="MediaPlayer" classid="CLSID:6BF52A52-394A-11d3-B153-00C04F79FAA6" codebase="http://activex.microsoft.com/activex/controls/mplayer/en/nsmp2inf.cab#Version=6,4,5,715" standby="Loading Microsoft¬ Windows¬ Media Player components..." type="application/x-oleobject" height="360" width="380"> <param name="url" value="http://yoursite.com/video1.asx"> <param name="uiMode" value="full"> <param name="autoStart" value="true"> <param name="stretchToFit" value="true"> <param name="volume" value="100"> <param name="enableContextMenu" value="true"> <EMBED type="video/x-ms-asf" pluginspage="http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/MediaPlayer/" src="http://yoursite.com/video1.asx" name="MediaPlayer" uimode="full" autostart="1" stretchtofit="true" height="360" width="380"> <param></EMBED></OBJECT> <!-- Stream Code End -->
PS: I'm not sure this solution will work properly. I didn't search about this :
You can try in your local machine.
PS2: James! I was refering to video extension types ;D

Thank you soooooooo much!
You can be sure www.tvsplanet.com is a big project. Maybe the largest site I have been working on! I added Fireboard but I need to add boards now and modify the CSS. Today I implemented the GeoCommunity component. It was needed to turn off the control panel in the same page because the js conflict. I did some menor changes in the component to modify the colors, the ajax loading image and text. GeoCommunity is a GREAT component and I'm playing with for hours ;D

Hey Franck,
Rockin' site! Quick question for you...
I see that you are using Monoslideshow. Can you tell me how you implemented it into Colormatic?
Or better yet, if you know of a step by step tutorial somewhere, I'd be greatful for the link.
I am a total tech dweeb so the more step by step the better if you know what I mean.
By the way, you were mentioning adsense before. If you want some ideas on how to monetize a site like yours, just pm me.
Thanks,
Cameron

Hello Cameron,
I inserted the monoslideshow in the advert1 position. It's was needed to change the margins in the CSS file to remove the initial border of module position and make several test to work in IE6, IE7 and FF. IE6 is like hell but a lot of people are using.
For the monoslideshow customization I used the xml generator in the monoslishow site.
You can find a lot of good tips in the Colormatic Forum. I can't do a tuto about all my steps for monoslideshow but if you want some specific tips I can help you (just be patient because I have a lot of work!)
About monetization, I send you a PM.
Thx!

Hello RTeers,
I need a little help to verify if two new things in my site are working properly with IE6 (my standalone version doesn't work properly), FF/Mac and Safari/Mac:
1- In the main page media player, I added a little video with an animated TV before launching the TV stream. I would like to know if the code used works with the browsers mentioned. First my video and in a second time the TV of the week.
2- In the TV from USA page, I added a transparent Flash (flow animation) with wmode. I can access correctly the menu (IE7 and FF 2.0.0.4 for PC) but I don't know if this is ok with other browsers.
Main page: www.tvsplanet.com
Internal page: www.tvsplanet.com/content/view/8/15/
Thank you if you can have a look at this for me

The Flash Animation is sharp.
You say you did this with wmode? Where can I find that?
Also, did you just create your video screen thumbnails in an image editor, or is there some kind other kind of program that can do this?
Nice stuff Franck. Inspiring.
Cameron
p.s. My roommate has a Mac, so I will see what your site looks like on his when he gets home.
