Ooyala

The Ooyala WordPress Plugin is specifically designed to take advantage of the many new capabilities of the latest versions of WordPress platform and to give publishers a more updated look and feel.

• Ability to search by Title, Description, embed code and also refine results by labels.
• Upload in the background and notify the user when the video is finished processing so the user can embed the video.
• Easily manage video labels from the video browser.
• Support for the Ooyala Player V4 as well as additional options for the V4 player on the settings screen.
• Allow JavaScript player parameters to be modified by an ‘ooyalaParameters’ function defined in the global JavaSvcript namespace.
