Logo Box plugin

This plugin displays an area with a logo (or other image) above, below or on top of the video. The logo can link to an external site. The background of the box is white by default, but can be set with the backcolor flashvar of the player.

This plugin is compatible with version 4.4 of the player.

Examples

Here is an example of the Logo Box plugin in action.

Get the Flash Player to see this player.

file=files/bunny.flv&plugins=logobox&logobox.file=files/logobox.png&logobox.link=http://www.jamitnews.com

Configuration

The plugin is loaded with the flashvar plugins=logobox. This will automatically load the latest version of the plugin straight off our servers. It offers five configuration flashvars:

  • logobox.align (left): alignment of the logo in the box. Can be left or right.
  • logobox.file (undefined): logo to load in the box. Can be a PNG, JPG or GIF image. SWF animations are possible too.
  • logobox.link (undefined): the website to direct to when a user clicks the logo. By default, the logo doesn't link anywhere.
  • logobox.margin (8): whitespace around the logo in the box, in pixels.
  • logobox.position (top): position of the box in the player. Can be top, over or bottom. When set to over, the box background is hidden.

Again note that the logobox plugin uses the backcolor flashvar of the player when set positioned above or below the video.
