Embedding Youtube Flash Videos

BajaNomad - 1-27-2012 at 05:37 AM

Currently, to embed Flash videos from Youtube, you need to click on the "Share" button, then "Embed".

From there you need to select the "Use old embed code" checkbox, and then select a size for the video that's probably and preferably no more than 640 pixels in width - absolutely no more than 800 pixes in width. After that, then copy the embed code, which looks something like this:

Code:

<object width="640" height="360"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/SrgsPsNi_6g"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/SrgsPsNi_6g" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="640" height="360" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object>

Now DROP EVERYTHING from there except the:

- width value (640)
- height value (360)
- and "value=" (or "src=")URL string - which in the above example looks like this:

Code:

http://www.youtube.com/v/SrgsPsNi_6g

Now just follow the BB Code example from the FAQ page here:
http://forums.bajanomad.com/faq.php?page=misc#1

...and put it all together like this (no spaces between the brackets and the word "flash" though):

Code:

[ flash=640x360]http://www.youtube.com/v/SrgsPsNi_6g[/flash ]

Which looks like this (when you remove those two spaces):

Okay, let me try!

First, after watching a YouTube clip, two links are given at the end 'embedded' and 'url'.

The url link is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9m1u1pba4Ps&feature=playe...

and the embedded link is: <object width="640" height="360"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/9m1u1pba4Ps&hl=en_US&feature=player_embedded&version=3"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/9m1u1pba4Ps&hl=en_US&feature=player_embedded&version=3" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="640" height="360"></embed></object>

This is a video of me pulling a 2WD Tacoma out of a sand pit and up the Diablo Dropoff in Anza-Borrego...

Wow... okay, if I want the part that is inside quotes after 'value=', then I have this: http://www.youtube.com/v/9m1u1pba4Ps&hl=en_US&featur... somehow, this is more stuff than your example, but is the part inside the quotes..?

So, start with this tag:

?

[flash=640x360
http://www.youtube.com/v/9m1u1pba4Ps&hl=en_US&featur... [/flash]

Above with spaces added to prevent it from working, yet... and below, all together...

Embedding Vimeo

I am trying to post a Vimeo project in order that I can begin and post additional projects from that site.

How do I embed the following code??

<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/36808327" width="500" height="331" frameborder="0" webkitAllowFullScreen mozallowfullscreen allowFullScreen></iframe>

Use the Vimeo "old embed code" link to get the src reference you need:

Now, that really is OFF ROADING!

Nice burp at 2:10!

Thanks!

Okay, now, let's see how you got back. :lol:

Fernweh - 2-16-2012 at 08:59 PM

Well,

we got back without all that Pacifico we had

After 4 days driving, we made it from the Pacific Ocean straight across the Baja to the Sea of Cortez. The grueling last 3 days were spend on only 5 miles of rebuilding a severely washed out road....

Now here's our victory run
