Hide Playing Process Bar

In default, the web player generated with PlayerDIY Web Player has a process bar on control bar, and this bar could move during the video playing to show how long the video has been played. However, if you don’t want to show the process bar on your web player, you could hide it in two easy ways. Here, below are two examples about how to hide the process bar: 1. Customizing a player has no process bar with PlayerDIY Web Player; 2. Inserting a line of flashvars code into the embed code of a player.

The demo without the Hide playing process bar showing on control bar:

  • PlayerDIY Web Player
  • Flashvars Code
To hide process bar on control bar, you just need to check the “Hide playing process bar” option on the following interface of PlayerDIY Web Player.

With flashvars code to hide the process bar, the embed code would be as below:

<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
<div id="flashcontent" align="center"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject('mwplayer.swf','player','500','450','9');
so.addParam('wmode','opaque');
so.addParam('quality','high');
so.addParam('allowfullscreen','true');
so.addParam('allowscriptaccess','always');
so.addParam('flashvars','playerOpts=noProcBar*true*b');
so.write("flashcontent");
</script>

The line of the red code is the flashvars code for hiding the process bar. Get more information about flashvars code.
