FV Player 8

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 85% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

   I just started using FV Player 8 and using a lot of streaming audio, and the player works well in an audio configuration… hence the rename from ‘FV Flowplayer Video Player’ to ‘FV Player’ 8.

   You did a great job building the tool and then in the latest version there are Two elements that are more than very annoying to users First is the copy link button that gives you the video link I want to hide or disable The other thing is the ability to click on the name of the video and it opens YouTube I want to stop these two features and there are no features for them in the tool. Is it possible to do this or customize this in exchange for purchasing the paid version of it? Please respond because the player is great but these two icons and functions may make the tool not good at all I tried to contact you via email to find a solution for it but I did not receive any responseI hope there are solutions for it
