Once the plugin is uploaded and activated, there will be a submenu of settings menu called FV Player. In that submenu, you can modify following settings: AutoPlay – decides whether the video starts playing automatically, when the page/post is displayed. AutoBuffering – decides whether the video starts buffering automatically, when the page/post is displayed. If AutoPlay is set to true, you can ignore this setting. Popup Box – decides whether a popup box with “replay” and “share” buttons will be displayed when video ends. Enable Full-screen Mode – select false if you do not wish the fullscreen option to be displayed. Allow User Uploads – select true if you like to upload new videos via Media Library. Enable Post Thumbnail – select true if you wish the screen shot appear as post thumbnail. Works only when uploading new splash image via Media Library.
