Enabling video files playback2

Through advisory help of Mr. Yeraze, video is finally played amazingly with the following step:

  1. Downloaded the vPIP Package(version 1.10 ) from http://wiki.vpip.org/index.php?title=All_Other_Installs
  2. Copy the lines from the following URL, and paste those to between <head> and </head> in monobook.php, then replace lines with actual URL
    http://wiki.vpip.org/index.php?title=All_Other_Installs
  3. Download the VPIPPlugin and unzip it and ensure there is two images(DownloadButton.gif, PlayButton.gif) and vPIP.php inside the folder "vPIPPlugin"
  4. place those 2 GIF images somewhere, I put those under "wiki/images"
  5. place the vPIP.php under "wiki/extensions", and specify location of a image in source code where you can find line with "img src" tag near bottom.
  6. Modified LocalSettings.php adding: require_once("$IP/extensions/vPIP.php")
  7. After all these done, go to "Special:Version" page, ensure there is <video> added
  8. Specify those attributions where you want video to play, following same way as follows:

    <video>
    url=<video URL>
    height=<video height>
    width=<video width>
    image=<placeholder image URL>
    title=<video Title>
    caption=<video Caption>
    download=<download URL>
    type=<video MIME Type>
    </video>

  9. If it ends up displaying 2 square vacant objects, problem may be in source code of vPIP.php, using the one provided by URL below may solve.

Enabling video files playback

One of a means I’ve found was use of vPHP that is a plug-in that enable videos playing in place dynamically embedding after the viewer clicks on its link. However, plug-in provided can’t seem working without any file inside zip archive found after I unpack it.
