2nd, I understand that for the current moment the dailymotion can work only with "Regular expression". This is 100% clear for me.

3rd, I am just trying based on dailymotion to make it working also with "Extract destination data".

As I understand this one can be done so?

And at this point I meet with the problem.

Here is my test case.

1. I use URL
   http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x9m63m_canarias-timelapse_creatio
   
2. There in HTML Source I see:
   

       <link rel="canonical" href="/video/x9m63m_canarias-timelapse_creation" />[*]

3. I am trying to get the needed video name from this line.
   
4. So I make:
   
   • Regular expression
     
     PHP Code:

     http://[w\.]*dailymotion\.[com|alice\.it]+/[\w/\-%]*video/([\w\-]+) 

   • Extract destination data
     Yes
     
   • Embedding Regexp
     
     PHP Code:

     <link rel="canonical" href="/video/([a-z_0-9-]+)" 

     • I also tried:
       
       PHP Code:

       href="/video/([a-z_0-9-]+)" 


And this one doesn't work.

I am trying to understand - why?

What I am doing wrong?

I don't think I totally understand what you are trying to do. The embed Regexp is designed to extract important parameters from a web page where the URL doesnt contain enough data that it needs. This feature won't extract other information for other uses (i.e. the title), though I suppose I could add a hook into the system which would make it easier.
