Controlling playback speed with Wowza

Use the slowmotion plugin to interactively control the playback speed.

standalone demo


The Slow Motion plugin provides these features to Flowplayer. The Wowza server is required when using this plugin. Wowza calls this feature 'trickplay' and this page shows how to use it with Flowplayer.

Configuration

We use the Slowmotion plugin to control the trickplay. We are streaming from the HDDN network, they have slow motion enabled in their servers.

flowplayer("trickplay", "http://releases.flowplayer.org/swf/flowplayer-3.2.11.swf", {
    log: { level: 'debug', filter: 'org.flowplayer.slowmotion.*' },
 
    // configure the required plugins
    plugins:  {
 
        slowmotion: {
            url: "flowplayer.slowmotion-3.2.8.swf",
            serverType: "wowza"
        },
 
        rtmp: {
            url: "flowplayer.rtmp-3.2.10.swf",
 
            // HDDN supports slow motion
            netConnectionUrl: "rtmp://rtmp01.hddn.com/play"
 
        },
 
        // add a content plugin to show speed information (this is optional)
        speedIndicator: {
            url: "flowplayer.content-3.2.8.swf",
            bottom: 50,
            right: 15,
            width: 135,
            height: 30,

                    color: '#ffffff'
                }
            },
 
            backgroundColor: 'rgba(20, 20, 20, 0.5)',
 
            // we don't want the plugin to be displayed by default,
            // only when a speed change occur.
            display: 'none'
        },
 
        controls: {
            // enable tooltips for the buttons
            tooltips: { buttons: true }
        }
 
    },
    clip: {
        // use the RTMP plugin
        provider: 'rtmp',
        scaling: 'orig'
    }
 
});
