It is also possible to use a standalone plugin to show your media files which has the big advantage that you don't need any dummy file as in the content elements.
Insert the plugin in your page and choose in the dropdown what you want to show. 3 options are available:
External Files: Choose this option to show external files. This are all files from foreign servers like youtube & co but can also be a FLV file on the server of your friend.
Internal Files: Choose this option if you got your files somewhere inside your fileadmin-folder. Don't forget that the file will be copied to uploads/tx_rgmediaimages!
RTMP-Streams: Use this option for RTMP-Streams or if you want to show a playlist.
To show external media files you just need to add the urls of the videos line by line. It is also possible to set a caption for every media file (also splitted line by line).
Internal files are embedded in the same way as external files but you just need to select the files through the Element Browser
If you want to use a playlist or the RTMP-Streams you add the urls line by line as in the external media files. The additional field “Description” can be used to set a description for a single media file.
