couple of steps to that process. The Playlist player can already do it, steps are here:

Docs: "HowTo: embed the playlist player in an external site"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/jamroom-admin-handbook/1556/howto-embed-the-playlist-player-in-an-external-site

Same idea for any of the other systems though, get a page that just shows whatever player you want and nothing else, then embed that page wherever you want it.

Check out the ALLOW_ALL_DOMAINS section from this doc:

Docs: "HowTo: allow streaming from other sites (embedding players in other websites)"

The one built into jamroom should be fine. There are lots of ways to do it.

My first choice would be to see how well an iframe'd page works.

create a file in your skin embeded_video.tpl (or whatever you want to call it.) That page will be accessible at the url
yoursite.com/embeded_video (or whatever you called it.)

Then structure the code to just output a player.

This code should work in its own template to play video id #5
{jrCore_include template="meta.tpl"}
<body>
{jrCore_media_player module="jrVideo" field="video_file" item_id=5}
</body>
</html>

Then swap out the item_id=5 for a selection mechanism to identify which video you want to play. maybe from the address bar, but there are other ways. Not sure how you're wanting to do it so hard to offer advice.

Hi, I wonder if you can help me please? I would like to embed the player on my Home page as a main player to Livestream and to play Archived videos from my hard disc. Is this possible? I have an old Livestream player at the moment but original.Livestream is no longer available. Thank you. www.FatsaFatsa.com

How would the files get from your hard drive to your site?

Hi Brian - Sorry. That was an absolute waste of your time and only goes to show my lack of know-how. I've had my platform from you guys for some time now and haven't done anything with it as i don't have any understanding of putting it together.
Could you please advise me how best I can go about approaching you/your team to set it up and asses the cost. I've tried the monthly support, of which I get my problems solved, but mean nothing to me since I cannot implement them.
Thanks for your time. Much appreciated.
