The page template loads the js file of the player. The element in the page determines location of the player. The in a player dependent way you need to provide either link to the video file to the player as an attribute, or as somebody already pointed out, you might need some other page producing xml descriptor for the player and link only to that descriptor while the descriptor itself will contain direct link to the binary file in magnolia. Since it is a player specific, you need to look in which form your player expects data. > > I have tried some things in it but couldn’t work out.

As for the default implementation code is out in open, there's no secret. Look at http://svn.magnolia-cms.com/view/community/modules/standard-templating-kit/trunk/magnolia-module-standard-templating-kit/src/main/resources/templating-kit/paragraphs/content/video.ftl?revision=32670 the div element there works as a placeholder and on display is ammended via js with the embed element that will look something like <embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="/.resources/templating-kit/swf/flowplayer.swf" width="100%" height="100%" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="sameDomain" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer"; id="fp_26364802_api" bgcolor="#000000" name="fp_26364802_api" flashvars="config={"clip":{"autoPlay":false,"autoBuffering":true,"url":"http://demoauthor.magnolia-cms.com/default/dms/demo-project/videos/magnolia_intro_480px.mov"},"playerId":"fp_26364802","playlist":[{"autoPlay":false,"autoBuffering":true,"url":"http://demoauthor.magnolia-cms.com/default/dms/demo-project/videos/magnolia_intro_480px.mov"}]}";> Of course if you want to go for more primitive approach you can just hardcode the <embed/> tag directly in your template. But what the correct params are for your player ... that's for you to figure out.
