Level Up Your WordPress Website With The FV Player Pro Plugin

You may be asking yourself: “Why am I here? Why should I need a video-relating plugin for my WordPress website?”

Let me answer that question for you! 82% of Twitter users are reported to watch videos on Twitter; 500 million hours of video are watched on YouTube daily; 85% of US Internet users watch online videos (from worldstream.com). Were these numbers to talk, they would scream: Online videos are the Internet world trend right now!

Thus, if your website has nothing to do with videos, you are bound to lose the fierce battle. Well then, at this point, you may be asking another question: “But I’ve already got YouTube, Vimeo and multiple others of the same kind, why should I need another video player?”.

Yes, I do agree that linking videos from YouTube or Vimeo to your site is a great strategy to attract visitors and by doing so, boost traffic. However, some of your visitors may think again, that why they should bother to come to your site to watch the very same videos, they could find on YouTube or Vimeo. You surely do not want to drive your visitors away, don’t you?

If you are shaking your head in panic, stop right there because here I am to make sure that won’t happen! Drumroll, please! The perfect video player for your WordPress site: FV Player Pro – One Ring to Rule Them All!

What Is FV Player Pro?

Video streaming has become a favorite activity on websites. Since it’s not so new anymore, you do not have such a “comparative advantage.” Thus, what you should do is to try climbing to the top!

And that is also the mission of FV Player Pro.

Introduced by FolioVision, the feature-rich FV Player Pro Plugin is one of the most potent and comprehensive plugins ever to exist in WordPress. Aiming at relieving the stress of video hosting, FV Player Pro ensures that you can have your custom player skin together with advanced video ads, overlays, AB loop, quality switching, variable speed playback, and searchable transcripts.

Not interesting enough? Well, it offers HLS encrypted videos too! What is more, FV Player Pro also integrates with Vimeo, YouTube, Amazon CloudFront, self-hosted and CDN hosting, Amazon S3, etc. With a similar interface on all devices and platforms, users can enjoy easy interaction with the plugin.

Core Features

I must say, looking at FV Player Pro’s list of features did give me a WOW! For a plugin priced at $75, I did not expect to see so many features, let alone all of which were extraordinary! Curious, yet? Let’s take a glimpse:

Now that’s just a short trailer! Want to see the whole film? Keep scrolling!

1. The Amazing Video Checker

As you may know, any issues you have with the encoding of videos may lead to consequences in the playback. That being said, have you ever thought of a feature that helps you find and fix any issues associated with this stage?

Yes, you have read it right! FV Player Pro Plugin will give you the fantastic built-in Admin Video Checker that identifies anything that could go wrong before it happens.

What is even more significant is that you won’t have to reactivate the feature. After you activate it for the first time, it will work automatically whenever you log in. If something goes wrong, you will get a message in a pop-up window, where you find information about the problem, as well as your video format’s analysis.

Of course, it will also include suggestions for improvements of the video, along with a section for comments which can be sent as a report to FolioVision.

2. Highly Usable Interactive Video Transcript

How great would it be to watch a video with subtitles, right? With the pro license from FV Player, you even get more than that! Want to know what it is?

Let’s explore the interactive video transcript first! By attaching the VTT file, which is usually subtitles, FV Player Pro Plugin generates a transcript in a box that is placed under the video. This text will also follow the playback, showing you the current line on the screen.

Moreover, you can jump to any part you want just by clicking on the lines. That is not to mention the Autoscroll function, due to which the text box automatically scrolls down as the video plays.

Also, included in this feature is the Search bar. With this function, you can find any phrase and skip to the line that has that phrase by hitting the “<>” button.

3. Magical Video Quality Switching

Understanding deeply that customers from different regions are equipped with different Internet bandwidth, the creators at FolioVision integrate this feature so that your customers can opt for whatever video quality that fits them. It wipes away your worries that your video cannot play on mobile or blurred on large screens!

To switch quality for video, hover your mouse over the player and choose the quality type you want, which will then be remembered as a cookie.

4. The Wonderful Ability to Add Captions and Splash Text

You may already know what caption is; it is the small block of text you usually see under a video, added to show the name or title of that video. With FV Player Pro Plugin, in addition to adding captions to video, you can add captions to a playlist too.

That is, however, not everything to this feature, as FV Player also offers automatic captions in YouTube and Vimeo videos. Using this option, you only need to paste the video URL into the shortcode editor, hit save/update the page, the caption will appear using the video’s title. Don’t want that? Turn off the feature then.

What about splash text? It allows you to add a text field, which will appear in an overlay over the video box inside a grey stripe as its background. Based on your purpose, you can either use it independently or with captions.

Surely there are a lot more about this marvelous plugin and its features. However, I did not go into details about how to set them up or how to use them because the creators already did, very carefully indeed.
