Layout of Video player in RC4

1. Thanks to Patrick @pcwriter for the suggestions.
   here is what I have come out with the layout.

   This is a working example,
   What modifications, you all want or what layout, please let me know.
   The gallery will be available tomorrow as there are some issues I am dealing with, specially face recognition is causing me a lot of trouble. still I am persisting with it, let us see, I hope, I can make user tagging in this release.

   Thanks

3. Hi Brajesh, adding the function for a video playlist player is already priceless. I would imagine that tweaking layout of the video player would entail some additions to CSS to the playlist div with a background image or background color and tweaking the text or such :-)

   "I hope, I can make user tagging in this release." - I hope so too. If not, maybe in next version :-)

   You ARE the man! That's beautiful... and pretty darn close to what i had envisioned!

   2 questions:

   1 - Will sizes/colors/etc of the playlist be editable in the stylesheet?
   2 - Will media descriptions appear in the playlist?

   Thank you very much for this!

   Just checked now. will be messaging you back in a minute :)

   @mercime, @patrick
   Thanks for the comments, I do want to complete the face tagging in this release to make it better :)

   yes, the layout is completely controlled via css, You will have playlist.css which you can use to tweak this in any way . btw, I am improving it too before release. It was a bare player and playlist when I uploaded the screen shot:)

   The description can appear if we want, well let me do that too :)

   As the kids say... OSSUM!

   To keep the playlist appearance manageable, can the description that appears in the playlist be capped with a maxlength or an excerpt?

9. @pcwriter - Yup, thought about the same stuff, though I'm not too concerned about that because Brajesh always adds CSS hooks for themers to play with :-)

   @Brajesh - Good stuff. Thank you.

10. That looks great! I'm not sure how the player works, but it only works for uploaded videos right? I imagine that with oEmbed + Flowplayer you could add external sources to? I'm asking because I can't host videos but a video gallery solution would be cool. I'm sure this has been asked before, but so far I was focussing on the image aspect of the plugin :)

11. hi Bowe :)
    Agreed with you about external videos.
    In this release I am decoupling player from the core plugin, so if someone wishes to use another player say JW Player, they can. keeping it out of core and pushing it to theme should help in the customizations a lot.

    I will be adding the support for external embeding say youtube,vimeo/flickr in 1.1. For now, I am trying to make it reliable and more robust :)

12. +1 on embedding videos in player whenever available, Bowe and Brajesh :-)

13. Yes please keep in mind those of us who host our video's on separate servers, cdn's. I intentionally do not allow any video uploads on the wordpress server as I don't want the resources taken up. Having separate rtmp servers makes this problem mute and will only further improve when I move to the highwinds cdn.

14. I agree with you all, the only thing is, It may not be coming in 1.0. yes, It is a feature we must have, and database is designed to handle remote files, so It will come in future for sure, hopefully in 1.1

15. Understood Brajesh. You must have a very very very long page of to-do's for BP Gallery :-)
    Thank you for the amazing work you have accomplished so far for this plugin. Cheers.

    yeh, there are a lot of things to do, today after Rc4 I am going to setup traq for tracking the bug/features/milestones, so we can have all of them organized :)
