HOW TO USE
go to this site Metacafe Video (http://www.metacafe.com) and find a video you want to post,now below your selected movie you will see this "Embeddable Player"
Now in that string of code which will look like this
<embed src="http://www.metacafe.com/fplayer/224484/spongebong_hemppants.swf" width="400" height="300" wmode="transparent" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed><br><font size = 1><a href="http://www.metacafe.com/watch/224484/spongebong_hemppants/">Spongebong Hemppants - video powered by Metacafe</a></font> you need to cut and paste this part of the code between the BB tags "224484/spongebong_hemppants.swf"
eg: 224484/spongebong_hemppants.swf
or simply take from the Metacafe url when you find your video this part of the url 224484/spongebong_hemppants and add the .swf to the end so it would look like this between the tags
224484/spongebong_hemppants.swf

Great!! I tried this and messed it up!

However, I took yours and just added .swf right after {param} in the replacement code. Now all you need is the number/name from the MetaCafe code and it works great.

Cheers!! *clicks install*

check and make sure you are entering the correct code in between the tags

thanks for the infor. I should hv cut and paste instead of typing the code manually. Makes it prone to mistakes.
