thanks for this :)

It would be cool if the tag was switched to just "video" and could be a link from googe, youtube, break.com, streetfire.net, fquick.com, ebaumsworld .....

Then how would it tell them apart if only the ID was entered?

As for the other sites, Break.com's embed code has nothing in common with the URL you view the video at, so it's out. Streetfire is doable. fquick.com wouldn't be used by many people, so it's not worth my time. ebaumsworld is also nearly there (is it really that hard to link to the video rather than embed it?).

I was just saying entire urls ... Not sure how many people picked up on the ability for it to embed with just the ID.

I just liked the idea of embedding it because it keeps users on my site. Keeps them looking at my ads, keeps my traffic up. At least to a small extent.

Nice and Installed. Thanhks

Great mod, but shouldn't it be able to extract the title of a youtube video?

Define "shouldn't it be able".

Is it possible? Of course, assuming you have a server that allows fsockopen(). Will I add the feature to my plugin? Nope, there are other plugins out there if you want that. Mine's simple on purpose. ;)

Thanks for the quick answer. Great mod none-theless.

Does this hack work for http://www.break.com/ and http://www.liveleak.com/?ogr=1 ?? If so what would be the BBC code?

Nope, only YouTube and Google Video currently. I plan on adding IFILM and Metacafe at some point though.

Break.com won't work because their embed code has nothing in common with the URL in your address bar. I mean, it could work, but it'd be too hard for the average use to be worth it. Better off linking to Break.com.

Never heard of http://www.liveleak.com/, but I'll look into it.
