How to change playlist for flash video playerTutorial

From Moyea Web Player Pro version, there would be a playlistXml file named "MediaList.xml" generated in the publish folder, which you can directly delete, add and replace flash video file for the generated web player to transfer for playing without using the desktop of Moyea Web Player Pro.

To change the playlist file, you should firstly right-click the "MediaList.xml" file in the publish folder, open with notepad, then you can delete, replace and add new flash video file into the playlist for playing.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<playlist>
<playitem caption="MwbtW9xhji4" path="MwbtW9xhji4.flv" image="FirstFrame.jpg" clickurl="" clicktarget="" endurl="" styleoftarget="" endtarget=""/>
<playitem caption="Oq83WngmoxA" path="Oq83WngmoxA.flv" image="FirstFrame.jpg" clickurl="" clicktarget="" endurl="" styleoftarget="" endtarget=""/></playlist>

The above is a playlist file opened with notepad. Totally, they are two flash video files linked to the web player for playing. "MwbtW9xhji4" and "Oq83WngmoxA" in blue are the caption of one flash video file; "MwbtW9xhji4.flv" and "Oq83WngmoxA.flv" are the name or path of the two flash video files; "FirstFrame.jpg" in green is the first image appeared for this flash video file in the web player. Besides, if you have specified, there are also "click url, clicktarget, endurl, styleoftarget, endtarget, etc" available for setting.
