First your code is missing a ". It should be "{param}".
Next, this BB code is not working in VB4x. I'm sure is a Facebook code change on their end. Can you update this?

="{param}" will not work strangle enough. the video will not show in posts. thought VB4 had this bbcode built in???
and yes, something has changed, as i just tested my own bbcode and video shows black, but click the screen and it plays. hmmm, may have to look into this.

EDIT:
after doing a lot of tests, only one that works at the moment is the bbcode shown in screenshot. not sure if we can do much better atm, as ip.boards fb video is doing the same thing. black blank screen, but click screen and it plays. maybe fb wants us to use as seen in screenshot that bbcode.
