How do I play a video instead of a still image?

Hi there

 

How do I go about playing a video instead of a still image on the product info page?

 

When a customer clicks on an image in the previous page. Be it the index page or whatever, They are then brought to the info page where an image is displayed with the price and a description etc. I want a video to start playing there instead of the still image.

 

I have installed flowplayer and can get it to work on my homepage but I can't get it to work here. I also need to be able to create a variable so no matter which clip they click on, that clip plays in flowplayer in the product info page. This seems to be how it works for the still image. I just need to know what code to add to flowplayer.

 

How on earth do I do this? I have no programming skills so fumbling around in the dark with this. I would really appreciate someones help with this

 

Thank you!

place a video on your product description... i saw some modules which allow you do this... also 2.3 has a feature that do that, so cool!

hi

 

just go to your admin - catalog - product - edit

 

in product image

large image -> small image

html content -> go to youtube(just an example) click on insert and copy the code (something like <iframe title="YouTube video player" ..... frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>) and paste on the field html content(for popup)

 

and that's it

Thanks for the reply.

 

What if I am using a stand alone player and want to link to a video clip?
