Hi,

This is SVN patch request.
Type: Bugfix

Bugtracker references:
http://bugs.typo3.org/view.php?id=11902

Branches: trunk

Problem:
The MediaCE only works with absRefPrefix for generating qualified URLs. 
User might forget this, use the CE and wonder why the video isn't displayed.
Also when configure with flowplayer (which is a very good and often used 
player) they wonder why it doesn't work. Flowplayer has his power with 
JS configuration and plugins, but doesn't work with standard swfobject 
configuration, so complete different naming of params is needed.

Solution:
* use baseURL if configured
* use absRefPrefix if configured
* if both isn't configured, calculate backpath from player

Additionally integrate a hook for manipulating conf array.

I attached a basic extension in Bugtracker which replace TYPO3 player 
with flowplayer and use the hook for writing the params flowplayer need. 
The extension also demonstrate the custom render hook and generate a JS 
and a simple link, the way flowplayer works in general.
