I am really excited about the new media player. Under 1.0 we link to vimeo. I like vimeo but a drawback is we are limited to 1.0 GB upload which results in our breaking the sermon into 2 parts.

@PotentialClient Those are some great questions that I am happy to answer. The reason why we created a launch media button is so that users can still place content on their “Messages” page such a pictures, text and links to supplement the media experience.

Secondly, you can create multiple media players to store different categories of video or audio, however with the sorting capabilities that the GH 2.0 media player will have you could potentially stick with just one media player for all your content.

First of all, stoked to see this. This is exactly what we are looking for without having to hire an IT person to get it. Questions: 1. Why do you have to click “Messages” and then click “Launch Media Player” to get to the sermon page? Why can you just click on Message to pull up the media player sermon page? Also, we do a lot of promotional videos that currently is a seperate page on our website. Will we be able to have a page/media player for sermons and then seperate page for promotional video material?

@Jeremy Absolutely! You will be able to throw all your media content into one media player including your audio tracks. Consider the media player to be a hub for all your content and every function that we explained here will work the same for your audio tracks as well.

Is this only for video? What if we only have AUDIO TRACKS. When we get video we’ll still want to offer AUDIO mp3s and audio streaming i think???

what’s so funny is when we bought our cloversite 7-8 months ago, greenhouse looked state of the art to me, and now with all the stuff you’re showing us from greenhouse 2.0, what i have now looks kind of old. not bashing the current version, just saying you guys have made tremendous progress and it’s going to be AMAZING!!!

BTW, just in case you need someone to beta the new Greenhouse, I would humbly offer my services. I would even allow you to call me a guinea pig.

I am weeping right along with Rob. People at Starbucks are staring at me.

Go CLOVER.

I can’t help but feeling that with a release this incredible, this big… well that there should be some sort of release party/ cupertino-ish release event… some internet gathering of Clover-ites to celebrate!!!

@Clay Yes, many of the new features (control of colors, name of launch button, and ability to play video) will be on the mobile version! We’re not sure yet if we’ll add the ability to see all your custom columns, but anything we don’t have for the Greenhouse 2.0 launch, we’ll always improve later.
