About Elite Video Player WordPress Plugin
When video is the ad or the content on your site
Embedding a YouTube video on your site means giving away your viewer's attention: logo, title, share button and a column of related videos that lead your visitor somewhere else. If you also want to earn money from those videos, the YouTube player won't let you place your own ads. Elite Video Player solves both problems with a single player.
Elite Video Player: YouTube without the YouTube interface
Its most striking feature is that it completely hides the YouTube interface (Watch later, Share, logo, title and related videos), so the video plays as if it were a regular mp4. You can also use the default YouTube player or one with custom controls. It supports single videos, playlists, user channels, 360 VR videos and YouTube livestreams.
With one click it can replace all the YouTube embeds you already have on the site. It is inserted with a shortcode in a page or post, after choosing the player type.
Your own ads or ad network ads on every video
This is the real value for anyone monetizing:
- VAST, VPAID, VMAP and Google IMA: linear ads (pre-roll, mid-roll, post-roll and PODS) and non-linear ads (banners or text), with no coding.
- Self-hosted ads: your own videos as pre-roll, mid-roll or post-roll, plus popup ads, with no external XML files.
- Configurable skip ad: you can set a different skip time for each video.
- Combination: your own advertising can be mixed with VAST, VMAP and IMA.
With Google Analytics you can measure video views and downloads, and also how many times an ad is watched, how long it plays before being skipped and how many clicks it gets.
Where to host your videos and what to decide before buying
It plays YouTube, Vimeo, self-hosted mp4, Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, Amazon S3, local videos and HLS streaming (m3u8). You can mix several sources in the same playlist. It includes Chromecast support and smart thumbnails on the progress bar.
The core decision: if all you want is to embed a video now and then, a player this complete is overkill. It makes sense if you handle several sources or want advertising inside the video.
Does it work for videos hosted on my own server?
Yes, with files in mp4 format.
Can I place ads without knowing how to code?
Yes, both VAST, VMAP or IMA tags and your own ads are set up without code.
Does it really hide that the video comes from YouTube?
It removes the visible YouTube elements, but the video is still hosted there: it is not a way to stop depending on that platform.
Does it work with every video service?
With the ones listed above. If you use another service, check in the demo whether it plays before counting on it.
