PRESTASHOP VIDEO pop up (beta release)
goto embedded video version

I've never liked youtube video embedding, so I've developed this simple additional code in order to easly insert manufacturers' and products' video in prestashop. Video formats accepted: wmv and flv. This code is neither a module nor a plug in: I like call it "small impact code" ;) If You like (or need) it, You can use it for free. This is a beta but seems to work correctly.. ok, enough correctly. Next steps: bugs' correction, best video + languages management, css style for pop-up video window, video size.
Use the prestashop forum to report bugs, please, so other users can verify and send possibly their own comments.


Open supplier.php and find $smarty->display(_PS_THEME_DIR_.$objectType.'.tpl');
Before this line write: include("video/videoSic.php");

Open product.php and find, at the end of file, $smarty->display(_PS_THEME_DIR_.'product.tpl');
Before this line write: include("video/videoSic.php");

Open [themes/YourTheme]/manufactuter.tpl and before {include file=$tpl_dir./errors.tpl} line
write:{$videoSic}

Open [themes/YourTheme]/product.tpl and after <div id="pb-left-column"> line
write:{$videoSic}

The End....

Now You can create manufacturers and products flv and/or wmv video (352x288 or... similar), in one or more languages. Rename video as n.wmv, n.flv (n= manufacturer or product ID) and put them in sub folder manufactures (if manufacturer video) or products (the other case). That's all!
If you create video (n.flv/n.wmv) in more languages then rename them as n_1.wmv, n_2.wmv, n_1.flv, n_2.flv... where 1=language 1, 2=language 2, ...

Example: manufacturer Tizio has ID=4. I make video tizio.flv and tizio.wmv, rename them as 4.flv and 4.wmv and upload them in /video/manufacturers remote folder. If I have language 1=english and 2=italian and I create 4 video, tizioEngl.flv, tizioEngl.wmv, tizioItal.flv, tizioItal.wmv, I must rename them as 4_1.flv, 4_1.wmv, 4_2.flv, 4_2.wmv, and then upload them in same folder.

In product case it's all the same, but the remote folder is /video/products.
