re-embed embedded player? Created Nov 12, 2009

Have a look at the embed plugin, it should do what you want.

That's not quite what I'm looking for. That plugin is used to generate an embed code on the host site. I'm looking for a way to show an embed code in an embedded video, that is in a video that is already embedded on a 3rd party site. Youtube and vimeo have the embed code built right into the player. Does that make sense?

I understand - sort of ;-) Sounds like this should be a flash plugin.

yes, I agree. I think it would need to be. I think this kind of thing would be important for the viral success of a video, to allow it to spread really far without people even knowing about the host site.

Well, they would know about the host site if they ever had a look at the embed code ;-) But, yes, I agree, nice idea for spreading the video ... and flowplayer, for that matter (hint to developers, ahem).

Do the developers have any plans to build this feature?

I'm pretty sure Liam's custom controlbar's do this.

Checkout one of the Plus version demos, there's an embed built into the controlbar. I just tested it and it let me embed from an embedded player.

Its using the flowplayer embed js but I haven't checked to see how its implemented yet. http://flowplayer.org/plugins/javascript/embed.html

Excellent. Thanks Edge.

Not quite....

We noticed a bit of a booboo with this also. The current embed button on plus is simply a call to a javascript function, but it wont throw an error if the JS function isn't recognised.

However, as I just said in another post, we have since ported this to flash, we just haven't rolled it out onto plus.

You can see it working though on a bespoke player we just finished (some features may not work as it connects to a private API)

Indeed, when this is added and updated to Plus+ (along with social bookmarking) you will be able to embed and embedded player!

Thanks,
Liam
