= Easy Video Player Plugin Usage =

*Settings Configuration*

It's pretty easy to set up this plugin. Once you have installed the plugin simply navigate to the Settings menu where you will be able to configure some options. Mostly you just to need check the "Enable jQuery" option. That will allow the plugin to make use of jQuery library.

*Embedding Shortcodes for the Videos*

Now it's time to finally embed a video shortcode. To do this create a new post/page and use the following shortcode:

`[evp_embed_video url="http://example.com/wp-content/uploads/videos/myvid.mp4"]`

here, url is a shortcode parameter that you need to replace the actual URL of the video file.

*Video Autoplay*

If you want a particular video to start playing when the page loads you can set the "autoplay" option to "true":

`[evp_embed_video url="http://example.com/wp-content/uploads/videos/myvid.mp4" autoplay="true"]`

*Control Size*

Many users don't care if the videos are not responsive, and therefore want to control the player size. You can easily do so by specifying a width and height for your video:

`[evp_embed_video url="http://example.com/wp-content/uploads/videos/myvid.mp4" width="500" height="400"]`

*Control Player Ratio*

The player ratio is set to "0.417" by default. But you can override it by specifying a different ratio in the shortcode:

`[evp_embed_video url="http://example.com/wp-content/uploads/videos/myvid.mp4" ratio="0.345"]`
