its easy?

now have a embed jwplayer that read a playlist.rss acording the chanel name, but if this player reads the videos in chanel make work easy.

any sugestion?

You can use only the videos that can be played in jwplayer, youtube and uploaded.
Where did you get stuck? So I can help you pass that phase.

The idea is make "live" channels
What I need is at enter in the channel page, have a player that plays the videos of this channel in autoplay.

I copied the jwplayer code in channels tpl, and reads a handmade playlist I upload to a directory:

Code Select Expand

playlist: "/uploads/'.$channel->cat_name.'.rss"

I would like the player read in database all videos uploaded of this channel directly, without having to manually modify the playlist and upload.

my knowledge of php is not enough for me to change this and i dont write correctly in english to express correctly

I got what you need, gimme a bit of time and I can code your php handler for the playlist, right now it's weekend and I'm not at the office.

So taken from here http://support.jwplayer.com/customer/portal/articles/1406722-rss-playlist-embed

I can generate an file that accepts the id of the channel.

Code Select Expand

<?php require_once("load.php");
$playlist = intval($_GET['id']);
if($playlist > 1) {
$vq = "SELECT title,thumb,source FROM ".DB_PREFIX."videos WHERE category in (select cat_id from ".DB_PREFIX."channels where cat_id='".$playlist ."' or child_of = '".$playlist ."') and source like '%youtube%' or source like 'localfile%' ORDER BY id DESC limit 0,1000";
$videos = $cachedb->get_results($vq);
if($videos) {
echo '<rss version="2.0" xmlns:jwplayer="http://rss.jwpcdn.com/">
<channel>
';
foreach ($videos as $video) {
echo '
 <item>
    <title>'._html($video->title).'</title>
    <description>'._html($video->title).'</description>
    <jwplayer:image>'.thumb_fix($video->thumb).'</jwplayer:image>
    <jwplayer:source file="'.str_replace('localfile/',site_url().get_option("mediafolder").'/',$video->source).'" />
  </item>
';
 
}
echo '</channel>
</rss>
';
}
 
} else{
//No playlist id
//Echo an error
}
?>

so if you save it as playlist.php in root, you can access it as playlist.php?id=x (where x is you actual channel's id) from the channel embedded player.
