"That was my other thought Kathie --- were's the equality for the merchants?  I know how many hoops I had to jump through to get my merchant facility and take payments online -- and I'm pretty certain that I wouldn't be able to say "no PIN"....  There is something sadly lacking in the whole process." - Charly

"Hi Bev, M4V is the MAC version of a MP4. You could literally upload the M4V files and link to those. If you've run the M4V's through Quicktime and some people are reporting a blackscreen, I'm going to assume the following: 1. You're using a MAC and have some QT plugins installed 2. Those that are reporting problems are likely using a PC. I've had this problem a lot when I receive videos created from video production houses where they use HD plugins.  Being a PC user, I can't use these files because they aren't transportable.   Very, very frustrating. When you transferred from M4V to MP4 using Quicktime, did you use Export For Web?  When you say the playback is terrible, is that on your computer or after you upload it and display it on your site? If it's after putting it on your site, you've likely uploaded a larger size video and trying to resize it in the player.  You are best served exporting the Video to the size you want to display on your site and trying that. HTH" - Charly

"Hi Elena, It really depends on what you're using to convert the video. I've had issues with AVS, and some Quicktime encoded videos because of the encoding used. The link you provided is invalid.  If you can tell me how big the video is - the filesize - and what you're using to encode the video, that will help. Cheers, Charly." - Charly

"Hi amediaguy, Sorry for the delay in responding, it's been a pretty hectic time. I use a mix of products.  Mostly I use Camtasia and select "produce for WEB". I've had trouble with using Quicktime encoded videos if they use extensions specifically for MAC's only.... the video just stays black. If you can give me some details on what you're using and the settings, I'll do my best to help." - Charly

"Hi Joe, The "paramaters" for each type of button this plugin supports are detailed under each FAQ item.  If the parameter isn't specified, then it isn't supported. It would seem, although you haven't said it, that you are trying to input a paypal button with options.  The ONLY buttons this plugin currently supports is: 1. Hosted 2. Buy Now 3. Subscription It does not support options. You can try to use a hosted button (NOTE:  I haven't tested that with Options) and see how that goes.  You need to review the FAQ item on the support page labelled: How do I add a Hosted Paypal button with the Enhanced Paypal Shortcodes plugin? to find the full usage and parameters to use in the code. If a hosted button does not work, this plugin is not the right one for you to use." - Charly

"Joe, please read the FAQ's that are provided on this page: thewpwarrior.com/wordpress-plu...  to determine how to enter the code.  If you read the FAQ's they explain exactly what parameters you need for the type of button you are using, and even provide examples that you can cut and paste to modify." - Charly

"Hi Jason, we're still investigating the issue.  Can you post your URL where this problem is occuring - and can you tell which version of the plugin is installed please? Thanks!" - Charly

"Hi Thomas,  I thought I had responded to your question but obviously not!  In general, most video players will co-exist with each other but you do need to check it out. I've used JW Player with two or three other plugins and haven't had any issues." - Charly

"Hi Jesse - glad it helped.  I know exactly waht you mean by the nudge in the right direction." - Charly

"Hi Loretta!  Thank you for kudo's. Yeah, encoding videos is normally the issue.  I've spent hours reviewing issues for some of my clients. I'm assuming that your video player shows the swirly thing that indicates that the video will start playing?  But it just shows the black screen - and if you wait long enough, it will eventually play. I'm not familiar with Handbrake - and only use a PC. Perhaps you could share a link to a video that isn't working and we can take a look? And hopefully, MAC Users who also use Handbrake will chime in too!" - Charly

"Hi Kevin, A few things come to mind: 1. you need to have a plugin like EXEC PHP enabled on your site. 2. Make sure you edit that part of the code in the html editor (not visual editor) because the" - Charly
