Hi I am using a premium wordpress theme called videomag. The theme only allows it's proprietary html5 player or watermarked free jwplayer. I want to use KVS player but not sure how to change all my videos over to it. I would like to do it automatically as I have hundreds of video posts. Any code I can put in my stlesheet or in php files that will override the theme and set KVS as my default player?
Thank you
Steven

You should alter the theme, not videos.

I realize this but I have no idea where to even start. I have reached out to the theme author but they are horrible at getting back to people. I was looking around in the functions folder for my theme and saw the .js and .swf files for jwplayer in there. Should I create a new file for that directory that can automatically make kvs the default player? CAN I GIVE YOU FTP ACCESS? You could go in there and find out what I need to do? I want to buy this plugin so I can display my affiliate ads but I cannot commit until I know this is possible. I cannot do each video file one at a time with short codes that would be outrageous and I just do not have time.
Please help me out, thanks.

I am looking to find out the same. Did you ever find the answer to this? I'm going through the code, but no luck yet.

I would be glad to help, but I don't have the mentioned videomag theme to look inside and tell you how to use it with KVS Player.

Thanks for your response and willingness to help. Here's my problem. I'm using a theme (black tube), where I'm having the same problem. The video player used will either be the default(which I am trying to make KVS Player) or the player that is used in the embed code(I have to place the embed/object code in a "video_player" custom field area).
If I place the kvs shortcode in the post, and leave the "video_player" custom field empty, then all that shows is an empty black box on the site. My knowledge of php is minimal, but it appears that if the "video_player" custom field is left empty, it considers the entire post to be empty and won't revert to the normal post area.
I think the fix to my problem would be to fix the code so that I wont need to put anything in the "video_player" field or if there is a code to put kvs as the embed video player in the custom field.
I can give access to my wordpress or send you the files to take a look.

You can't "fix it" via CyberSEO. Your WP theme is the only script which has control on how exactly the post content will be rendered at your site. In case of the Black Tube theme, you have to contact its author (his nickname is Fris) and ask him on how to replace the default player with KVS one, because the only way to do it is to alter the theme templates.
The CyberSEO plugin can help you to automatically generate content in a format, suitable for any theme, but it can't change the way the theme will display it. So here is the instruction for Black Tube:
1) Syndicate the feed.
2) Assign the feed title and set the "Post thumbnail" option to "Generate from the 'thumb' custom field".
3) Scroll to the "Custom fields" box and paste there the following content:
screen_url->screen_url
screen->screen
clip_url->clip_url
flv->flv
mp4->mp4
duration->duration
4) Put the PHP code below into the "PHP code <?php .. ?>" box:

Don't forget to replace "http://www.google.com/" with your affiliate link.
5) Click "Syndicate This Feed".
