TV Everywhere has announced that its VidZapper enterprise
video platform now features a drag and drop video player builder enabling users
to build sophisticated video players with no coding skills in just minutes.
The resulting player
The system generates HTML5 and Flash and dynamic video
players and support features that include:
· · Scalable and configurable player layout with brand,
image or colour backgrounds
· · Components including social sharing, video titles,
playlists and schedules
· · Powerful video search function
· · Customisable controls
· · Hotspots and hotlinks
· · Scriptable components
· · Cut and paste integration with Twitter,
Facebook, Disqus, Polldaddy, Ebay, Amazon and thousands of other online apps
· · Customisable HTML5 and JavaScript containers
The generated players work across all common platforms
including PC, Mac, iOS and Android and on most web browsers, including IE7
which is still common in many workplaces.

“The management of online video has come a long way in a few
years,” comment TV Everywhere CEO Iolo Jones. “But most of the systems are
still very complex to use and do not offer a great deal of flexibility.
YouTube, for example, is great if you want their branding all over your
website.
“What we’re done is launch a complex application that is
very easy to use and should appeal to developers and non-developers alike. We believe that it will be particularly useful for companies who do not want to want to have YouTube or third party branding on their websites or mobile apps.”
The Player Builder requires a VidZapper account that can be
requested from http://vidzapper.com/free-trial.
