Integration: SDL Tridion & JW Media Player

Often clients have a need to embed videos within their rich text content fields of various formats (FLV, mp4 or streaming via RTMP).  Pasting video embed code is one way to deal with this, the video and it’s dependant files need would to be published separately in Tridion with the video URL hardcoded as part of the content.  This is not an elegant, nor a user-friendly solution.

The JW Player Video Renderer module allows the non-technical user to include a video Multimedia Component as a Component Link within their rich text field.  All that is required is a little bit of configuration and a TBB.
