I am a newbie to Moodle and full screen video is important to my course planning. I am not sure just which files from the advanced FLV filter to up load to my Moodle filter file on my hosted Moodle server ... the .DS_Store, defaultsettings.php, filter.php, filterconfig.html, flvplayer.swf ... which ones or all, but do they first need a folder created in the mutlimeda folder? Finally, there already is a filter.php file in the folder and I worry about overwriting a folder with the same name. Again, I am far from an expert and I am just trying to learn and avoid damaging the files that exist.
when I tray to config this FLV filter this mensage apears

This error is encountered if you do not have admin privileges or if you are not logged in. This means that you are not authorized to enter such an area or run such scripts.
I'm sure I can accses to this file becose I have configurated to 777, but this problem stills.
For the first time in quite a long while I have finally done a little bit of Moodle development gain. I love working with Moodle code and find it quite easy to manipulate. If you have a little coding skills under your belt I strongly recommend you head to the moodleDocs and start getting your hands dirty. It is surprisingly easy and very rewarding.Today I started (and finished) creating a new advanced FLV filter to replace the one in the moodle core. While the standard one works very well and does an admirable job, I found myself wanting to more easily control elements across my site such as player size, a placeholder graphic, auto playing of movies and the ability to hide the control bar. So today I made a new player that does all of that and it is controlled through the filter admin interfaceInstallation InstructionsDownload the new filter from the modules and plugins database on moodle.orgExtract the FLVplayer folder from the archiveUpload the FLVplayer folder to your moodle’s “filter” directoryTHATS IT! your all installed and ready to go. You will now see FLVplayer as a new filter in admin.Important NotePlease make sure if you are going to use this filter that you disable the existing FLV filter built into moodle. Details are in the accompanying video.If there are any other additional functions you think that should be added to this filter please make sure to leave them in the comments.
