Brilaps - MiaCMS, Joomla!, Mambo Extensions Demo Site

Thanks for visiting MamboJoomla.com. First a few disclaimers. MamboJoomla.com is not affiliated with Mambo Foundation, or Joomla! Open Source Matters, Inc. You can access their official websites via the numerous links on this and the following pages. We do not endorse one over the other, the decision is entirely up to you and due diligence. (ok! honestly, we favor MiaCMS a little bit more )

What is MamboJoomla.com for?

First of all demo site for the few extensions by Brilaps. You can see all them around you.

Look above! The videos. You see? That's moseasymedia. And the demo is here.

On your right, you can see Easy Donate Paypal Module. An easy way for your visitors to drop in a few bucks for your good cause. Feel free to click the link (*it's tied to our Paypal account, beware).

On your left, there is the Easy Pay Paypal Module. Another enormously easy way to collect service charges through your Mambo or Joomla! site.

Unfortunately, we cannot show you what an awesome WYSIWIG editor MOStlyCE is. Take a look at the screenshots, or if you're a Mambo user, you'd already know what we're taking about.

^{*MamboJoomla.com serves only as a demo site. You can access the documentation here, and support forum here.}

MamboJoomla.com also consists of two sub sites, which are serving as demos for the available MiaCMS, Joomla! releases. The default data that comes with the distros carry pretty valuable information, therefore we left them intact in all the sub-sites.

http://mambo.mambojoomla.com : MiaCMS 4.6.x releases (Sorry, no Mambo and J! 1.0.x at this time.We recommend MiaCMS over Mambo 4.6 and J! 1.0 versions).

http://joomla15.mambojoomla.com : Joomla! 1.5.x releases

We also welcome other extension developers to use our site to demonstrate their goodies. Contact us if you're interested. *Can't put together a few words without disclaimers, so here it comes; "we reserve the right to turn down your request for the publishing your extension."

Last but not the least, who knows, we may make a few bucks off the ads we publish on those websites.

Thanks for visiting our sites, and come back again.

embedia Preview Beta1 Release can be downloaded from

http://code.google.com/p/embedia/downloads/list

embedia 3.0.0 Beta Demo

The following paragraphs are still somewhat valid. We're still working on the  "moseasymedia" -> "embedia" transition.

As you will see in the demo pages, moseasymedia and embedia are pretty much the same thing. Download it, and give it a try!

Here comes moseasymedia 2.0 with some pretty cool features.

moseasymedia supports media plugins and media players that support wmv, wma, divx, midi, avi, mpg, mpeg, asf, asx, swf, flv, dcr, dir, mov, mp4, ram, rv, rpm, ra, mp3, playlist files (RSS, Atom, XSPF) extensions to name a few.That pretty much covers all the media formats  that exist today. Under the circumstances when the media type cannot be determined from the extension, moseasymedia tries to match the media's host domain with it's supported players.


moseasymedia 2.0 supports regular window popups for videos, and a Thickbox window. This way, you can allow your visitors watch the videos without all the obstrusive content around them, or perhaps popup the music in a seperate popup window and let your visitors keep browsing on your site. You can also add a mediathumbnail image on the main page, and a link beneath it to say something in the lines of "click here to watch".

moseasymedia is very customizable, very flexible and very simple. Almost all the object/param/emded tags can be customizable for each supported player, and you don't even need to know anything about them. We already set some defaults for you. You may choose to change them globally in the Mambot/Plugin configuration, or override a few of those params per each file you're embedding.

With the 2.0 release moseasymedia introduced a few more parameters to handle the popups.
"popup (=none, =window, =thickbox)", "popupwidth", "popupheight", "popuptoolbar", "popupmenubar", "popupscrollbars", "popupmediathumbnail".

See how they're used in the next pages. And take a look at the documenation on http://wiki.brilaps.com 

moseasymedia supports the following players out of the box.

• Windows Media Player
• Flash
• Shockwave
• Quicktime
• Real Player
• DivX
• JW FLV Player
• JW Media Player
• JW MP3 Player
• XSPF Web Player Extended & Slim
  

The following pages will demonstrate the flexibility of moseasymedia. In almost all cases you can get away with a simple { moseasymedia media=somesong.mp3} tag, and that's all.

Notes and Remarks:

• You may not be able to view some of the demo pages, possibly because of missing plugin or codec.
  
• The space between the "{" and "moseasymedia media=.........." is put in there to demostrate the moseasymedia tag to the reader. The actual video embedding tag must not have it.
  
  
• In our site wide configuration, the popups are set to "thickbox", therefore anytime we want to show the media on the actual page, we use popup=none in the moseasymedia tag.
  
  
• I am rapidly growing tired of those demo videos myself. If you have something interesting (nothing PG or R rated please) and would like us to include in those pages, please shoot me a message and save me from my demo-page misery : ))
  
  
• In this demo site, we set the popup windows default to "thickbox". Therefore, we use a few popup=none attributes in the moseasymedia tags. If you set the default setting to none, you won't need to add those.
