06 October 2008 --------------- Appending the nocache string to filenames seems to have broken content, but I'm sure it was working before. Recommitting without the cache setting until I can be sure it is working right. 03 October 2008 --------------- #314045 - Constants incorrectly defined - fixed. 23 September 2008 ----------------- Cumulative changes that address a number of issues. Identification of default players on the admin screen was wrong. swftools_get_media_url changed due to bug that resulted in double / appearing in the file path (#308172). Auto-detection of sizes changed so that players are always auto detected even when a remote media url is configured. Test content added to status page to help identify if SWF Tools is working. Missing php from is replaced by [swf ] during the prepare phase, so the code isn't stripped by HTML filters. [swf ] can be used directly when writing a filter. Filters can now be written using just [swf file=""] or [swf files=""] and filter will use file/files to determine if a playlist is intended. [swflist ] can still be used so old filter entries will work as originally planned. Filter amended to strip

from around the filter, to allow W3C validation to pass. Direct embedding mark-up changed to be standards compliant. swf() function parameters altered - now works more like the rest of Drupal 6 as an array of parameters is passed, rather than a series of parameters - pass an array with (optional) keys params, flashvars, othervars, methods. Params are passed to the generation code, flashvars becomes the flashvars string, othervars and method are passed to SWF Tools handlers. Check for existence of playlist directory (and creation as required) added to swftools_get_playlist_path() so it is created without having to visit settings page. Constant SWFTOOLS_INSTALLED added to make it easier to notify other modules if SWF Tools is available. Adding js to every page now defaults to TRUE (and SWFTOOLS_ALWAYS_ADD_JS added as a constant for code legibility). This means that SWF Tools behaves as "expected" with filters, without users having to specifically set this option. More descriptive messages when no player is configured, so users are directed to the appropriate settings page. Various drupal_set_messages made translate by use of t() function. Wording of settings pages changed to make more consistent with rest of Drupal. When playing media file_url is added to othervars['file_url'] so that player modules can access the media file path if they need to. This is particularly required for FlowPlayer to allow the appropriate config string to be built. swftools_push_js() added to hook_init(), rather than hook_menu() since it is technically not a menu function! New code added to direct embedding to assign an object id to the outer (IE6) object - without this JW Media Player 4 with IE6 causes pages to say they have an error. swftools.admin.inc ------------------ Form creation code adjusted to suit v6 menu call back Allow full screen parameter added to embed form Missing files now generate a download link if the download key is set in the methods array. Settings page altered slightly to put all file handling options together (some were under embedding settings). Means embedding settings is now simple for new users. Settings moved to sit under Administer > Site configuration > SWF Tools rather than promoting SWF Tools to a top level below Administer. Option added to file handling to allow SWF Tools to respond to requests to access swf, jpg, jpeg, mp3, flv and xml under a private file system. Cache flushing now calls drupal_flush_all_caches() which clears filters, block and page caches, so is more likely to ensure changes to flash content are properly rendered later. swftools.admin.status.inc ------------------------- Added a status page that generates reports much like the system status report. Intent is to provide some diagnostics if an installation isn't working. At the moment it can report on whether the embedding and playback features appear to be correctly configured (methods are available, supporting files are available etc) Status report is found at admin/reports/swftools. genericplayers.module --------------------- Menu updated to v6 Option to disable autoplay flv disabled as generic player always autoplays. swfobject.info -------------- Modified to v6 swftools.info ------------- Modified to v6 swfobject.module ---------------- Added a download key to swfobject_swftools_methods() so the admin form can provide a link to the required files onepixelout.module --------------- Menu updated to v6 Added a download key to onepixelout_swftools_methods() so the admin form can provide a link to the required files _swf() and _swflist() functions removed as redundant wijering.info ------------- Name string renamed JW Media Player 3 to make explicit to version 4 module. Description string changed to make explicit this is for JW Player 3. wijering.module --------------- Menu updated to v6 Added a download key to wijering_swftools_methods() so the admin form can provide a link to the required files _swf() and _swflist() functions removed as redundant wijering.admin.inc ------------------ wijering_admin_form_submit updated to forms API v6 Form routine tweaked to make it look more like a regular system settings form, ie Reset to default option added to admin form Confirmation message added to simulate settings form wijering4.module / wijering4.admin.inc / wijering4.info ------------------------------------------------------- Initial version of a module to support Wijering media player 4. Some of the parameters have been renamed, some are gone, and some new ones have been implemented. imagerotator.module / imagerotator.admin.in / imagerotator.info --------------------------------------------------------------- Image rotator separated out from JW Media Player 3 - logically this is a different module to the main player module, so it seems sensible to have this as a separate package. To the end user it makes a logical distinction between media players and the image cycler. Also, the JW Image Rotator is still at version 3, so to have Media Player 4 and Image Rotator 3 would mean enabling Media Player 3 which is counter intuitive! Internally it still uses the name WIJERING_IMAGEROTATOR so the existing variables are preserved, even though this is now a distinct module. lutman.module ------------- Added download key to methods array to allow easy download. lutman.info ----------- Updated to v6 Is descriptor right? It says lutman is included, but it isn't? ufo.module ------------- Added download key to methods array to allow easy download. Removed alert pop-ups. ufo.info ----------- Updated to v6 simpleviewer.module ------------------- Menu updated to v6. swfobject2.module / swfobject2.info ----------------------------------- Support for SWF Object 2 added, and output made standards compliant. Uses the flashvars in array format, rather than string form, to provide clearer javascript, and seems to be working ok. Original version of this module added the js to the page header, but that causes content generated with filters to break! js now added to page body, rather than header - remembered that when filter caching is enabled the js won't get added to the page header! New code added to assign unique id to the object (using swf followed by the same id numbers as the div. Without this JW Media Player 4 with IE6 causes pages to say they have an error. flowplayer.module / flowplayer.info / flowplayer.admin.inc ---------------------------------------------------------- Feature request under SWF Tools 5.1 asked for support for FlowPlayer. This module introduces initial support, but more work needed at the moment. Adding this module resulted in the changes to swfobject2 to use the array format, and the addition of the media file path to the resolved_methods array in SWF Tools itself. Private file handling --------------------- Change to method of generating path seems to allow private files to work. Tested with playback of a swf, and also an mp3 via generic and Wijering players. If files are placed on the site via FTP then a SWF Tools option must be set on the File handling page to allow SWF Tools to grant access to media files. It allows access to swf, mp3, flv, xml, jpg, jpeg and png formats. If access is denied by any other module then access is not allowed, so content that is being protected by a module is not compromised by activating this setting. The default setting for allowing access to private files is OFF, so to let SWF Tools allow handling of private files it must be explicitly set by the user on the settings page (Administer > Site configuration > SWF Tools > File handling > Private file system). General ------- Broken identifier strings replaced with correct format UFO and SWFObject 1.5 are both superceded by SWFObject 2.0 - new module written but not tested extensively yet. Configuration pages moved to sit under Administer > Site configuration > SWF Tools, rather than having SWF Tools promoted to its own level. Default HTML alt added as a constant for clarity, and wording made a little more informative to assist users who don't see the content. File locations settings moved from embedding page to file handling page. This is more consistent, and presents new users with fewer options on the first settings page. Most people probably never change anything other than the embedding method at first. Issue queue ----------- 218326 - Full screen does not work 166804 - Fullscreen option for JW PLAYER 153780 - Full Screen Support using Wijering Flash Full screen now a parameter on the settings page, and passed to flash modules to enable it. 191279 - Strange escaping behaviour of ":" and "/" and 1 pixel out Player 173021 - 1PixelOut - Error Opening File 154364 - input formats! 202591 - 1pixelout can't find file Incorporated the suggested fix to reverse the encoding. This probably explains "203301 - Error Opening File" as well. 178283 - Patch to fix bug in "base" parameter for direct embedding Patch applied - base now properly set when using direct embedding mode. 179322 - variable_get for Flash Version incorrect Suggested fix applied. scale and swliveconnect had similar errors so fixed those too. 146935 - Menu titles get strange formatting because of surplus white space Fixed 157397 - file path for attachment is wrong Think this is fixed with modified file handling mechanism that was needed as the "double files" issue occurred with flash node too. 252956 - Private Uploads and SWFTools Should be fixed with new code that allows used of private file systems with SWF Tools. Note - SWF Tools must be allowed to grant access to playlists. 294163 - Standards Compliant Flash SWF Tools now produces standards complaint (XHTML 1.0 Strict) using either direct embedding or via SWF Object 2 *in most cases*. The filter component has been updated to string the

that wrap around the
containing the flash, but if you use the format in the middle of a paragraph this won't work properly and you will get code that FAILS validation. If validation is important then you may need to test pages containing to SWF Tools content to verify that they are validating properly. 181473 - FlowPlayer support FlowPlayer support has been added. 233375 - Upgrade to 6.0 Here it is! 186896 - Wijering player w/playlist shows up on IE, not on FF or Opera Have not been able to recreate this error, but seems to be ok under all tests during develop of SWF Tools 6, so assuming can be closed. ; $Id: CHANGELOG.txt,v 1.1.4.6 2008-10-06 16:26:02 stuartgreenfield Exp $
