Installation Instructions

Before installing, make sure your hosting environment meets all requirements.

  1. If you're not hosting RTMP with us go to RTMP Application Setup for installation details.
  2. Install the component and module zips from Extensions > Install/Uninstall in joomla administrator interface.
  3. Froom joomla administrator interface fill rtmp application address in component parameters from Components > VideoWhisper.com Video Conference .
  4. Enable the module from Extensions > Modules (joomla administrator interface) if you want to list public video conference rooms on your site.
    Module also shows interface to allow frontend users to create and manage rooms.
    In Joomla 1.6-1.7+ you should configure these to show module on standard templates: Status: Published, Position: position-7 (usually left column), Module Assignment : On all Pages, then [Save&Close].

Notes:

  • You can install and use multiple VideoWhisper communication components on same website.
  • Set Error Reporting = Simple from Global Configuration > Server as notices and warnings can break parameters.
  • Disable/configure any SEO/ad injection components to not alter these components and modules. Changing links or adding extra content to component output will usually cause flash application parameter errors.
