Watch Video template

edit

A prototype template to display a chosen thumbnail for an audio or video file. This allows the user to choose any image as a thumbnail and not be restricted to the frames inside the video. For example, the user may wish to display a logo or explanatory label instead.

  • thumbnail image could be empty
  • file may be audio only, video only, or audio and video
  • can be used to workaround bugzilla:23160 "Theora video thumbnails corrupt"

The above does not quite emulate the layout of the normal embedded media file.

This code:

{{User:84user/Thumbnail
| file =Cal_ifps25fr25_q10.ogv
| image = Calibration-test-white.png
| align = left
}}


displays the following:

Here is some text preceding the thumbnail template.

This tests ways of adding host galaxy information to star articles. I adapted Starbox fragments from S Doradus in these examples.

This star is in the Milky Way unless the box above has "Host Galaxy".
Click show for more details.

More details here on each field ...

  • Constellation means the star grouping within which the star appears.
  • Right ascension means the distance on the celestial sphere measured eastwards from the First Point of Aries, counted in hours minutes and seconds ... examples: 05h 18m 14.35s ...
  • Declination is ... degrees, minutes of arc and seconds of arc
  • Apparent magnitude is ...
  • Host galaxy indicates where the star is located, if absent then the Milky Way is meant

Infobox parameters not used in the above examples:


| parallax_footnote = <!--Parallax footnote-->
| dist_ly = <!--Distance (in light years)-->
| dist_pc = <!--Distance (in parsecs)-->
| gal_lat= -33.4443
