Super Video player – play your videos with playlists and subtitles

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

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 · 60% 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 checked out the screenshots, which clearly showed you can have a playlist in the free version. Once installed, I discovered it does not allow this, and you need to purchase the Pro version. I’m sick of these plugins that are so extremely limited and basically just an advertisement to purchase their paid version. You do realise WordPress was originally created to be free right??

   After almost giving up on finding a video player that plays my films from my own server with multiple caption options – here it is. Easy wordpress integration – can it be so simple? I did notice that the caption size stays the same even when the video is maximized. This is not ideal. It does keep people from just showing my video to crowds of people without my permission though, I guess…

   The free version offers everything you typically look for: mute, loop, autoplay, add subtitles, and several other features. Installation and configuration are easy. It. Just. Works. Great. Thank you!

   I downloaded the plugin and everything worked great. And after a few days, everything broke. I read the message that after the update the plugin needs to be reconfigured. OK. It’s not terrible, I reinserted the new subtitles, wasted hours trying to set everything up again, when after the new update, everything broke again. In addition, it is impossible to select the subtitle, it is always disabled.I tried to get something positive out of it. The only positive from me is deleting this plugin because there is no point in it being so unstable and unplanned programming.

   To quote the plugins FaQ. “No, Its completely free.” Is a total lie. 70% of the features are locked behind a paywall, even simple features such as player controls. This is a joke.

   When playing video and close it by clicking anywhere on the website, the scrollbar will not be visible. Please help me fix this weird issue. There is no issue if I close the video using the “x” icon but clicking anywhere will hidden the scrollbar.
