I stopped using Viper’s Video Quicktags plugin a while back when I started playing in earnest with WPMu. Reason being is that this plugin didn’t really work well with WPMu last year at this time, and Anarchy Media Player was, and still is in many regards, alternative media player of choice for WPMu. However, I saw some yet undisclosed things today via Andy “I am video” Rush using the Viper’s Quick tags’ FLV player that made me want to test this plugin once again for WPMu 1.3.3. So I did, and guess what it? It worked fine, it even gave the YouTube, Google, and FLV icons in the visual editor, which was a long-standing issue as far as I could tell from the forums. So, I don;t think we will be getting rid of the Anarchy media Player anytime soon, but we may just have that many more options for playing media on UWM Blogs, but not until Mr. Rush blogs his findings (c’mon Andy!).

Generations from now, they won't call it the Internet anymore. They'll just say, "I logged on to the Jim Groom this morning.

Jim Groom is a fiery man.
-Antonella Dalla Torre
“Reverend” Jim “The Bava” Groom, alias “Snake Pliskin” is a charlatan and a fraud, a self-confessed “used car salesman” clawing his way into the glamour of the education technology keynote circuit via the efforts of his oppressed minions at the University of Mary Washington’s DTLT and beyond. The monster behind educational time-sink ds106 and still recovering from his bid for hipster stardom with “Edupunk”, Jim spends his days using his dwindling credibility to sell cheap webhosting to gullible undergraduates and getting banned from YouTube for gross piracy.

You can’t rush an artiste!
There’s a little tweaking needed usually to get the plugin to work with WPMU due to it usually being located in a different folder (mu-plugins), but yeah, it works fine.
I plan on making it work outta the box though in v6.0.0.
Viper007Bond,
This is a great plugin, and i particularly like the possibilities it affords with the FLV player, as Andy Rush will be posting about in more detail. Your development on this plugin over the last year has be going so smoothly, and it is encouraging to know it will be continuing. Thanks for making publishing multimedia from a wide range of sites and personal files a cinch, it is a huge element of making the WP user interface simple, powerful and user-friendly for a wide range of folks.
