As part of this article, we will tell you how to host your own video or audio and give it to users in the player you have configured.

To do this, we recommend that you use the Uppod service, which not only can generate a player for you and let you configure it, but also provide a Flash player that you can store on your hosting. But about everything in order.

Embedding a video on the site in a custom Flash player

To get started, register on Uppod and download a Flash player in SWF format, and then place it on your hosting. Then go to the settings and write down the paths to the player, the folder with the styles of your player and the playlist pack, if you will use them.

Pay attention to the check mark "Encrypt links" — it is necessary so that the minds watching the code of your player inserted on the site could not pick up your video directly if you have no reason to share it with someone.

Next, proceed to setting up your player. There may be several of them, for each style you will receive a configuration file and will be able to apply it quickly on your site.

The configuration of the player is very convenient and clear:

Almost all player parameters are available in a free account. In the extended one, which costs from $ 3 to $ 7 per month, the following features are available:

— adding a link to the player and watermark
— domain verification
— auto-generation of images from your video
— video password protection
— video playback by link from YouTube
— and others.

Next, when we have created the player style and saved it, you need to download a text file describing your player and upload it to your hosting in the folder that you specified in the initial settings of Uppod.

Now add the file to be inserted. The example will use a trial video in MP4 format.

Embedding audio on the site in a custom Flash player and photo galleries

Everything is the same here: we create a style, download it, upload the style and the MP3 file or photos to the hosting and get the code to insert on the site.

In the case of audio and video, it is worth remembering about the loads that can occur during mass distribution, which you did not think about in the case of the same YouTube.

And yet ... the fate of the player and the videos that you use on the site does not depend on the fact that the Uppod service is available — it only helps to put everything together. The player, styles and files are stored only with you and you are solely responsible for them.
