I have been struggling all day to be able to embed a google video into one of my joomla posts. I tried opening the HTML Source editor...the Flash Editor.... and a box will come up, but there isn't anything in it.

Can any help me out in explaining how I can get a google video embeded into a Joomla Post? Here is an example video for the type of code I need to put on my post for the video to show.... I just can't get it to show up....When you view the post, you see the CODE for the embed video...but not the video.

Help Help Help!

here is an example of the type of code I need to put in:

<embed style="width:400px; height:326px;" id="VideoPlayback" align="middle" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?videoUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fvp.video.google.com%2Fvideodownload%3Fversion%3D0%26secureurl%3DmwAAAHlj8GQ-fAtlmhl9ItQ8HVlJwcz0FKv4LF-X7-LOicp3G9jVYkC_LpTHrf8DM-1mzuHsfxAIe4QTCK0iZQ370lM6HbiJ9Iv3Jd6D3ZeiD5BXJ5yNEC38CnHmqUVgugrS187TZzUqytMgp6

I'm praying someone can help me!

I have a similar problem!
I insert my flash file, but it always RESIZES the size to 0 px by 0px,
no matter what I try, it keeps automatically shrinking on me!
I can HEAR the file working! I've used the flash editor, and html source to change the size, but to no avil! to always changes back to 0!

HELP PLEASE! spazz896 @ ho t mail.com (no spaces)

I have the sam problem- but want to embed a jaycut mix into a joomla post.



It turns out that if I insert the correct html code directly into the editor- then the tinywysiwyg editor CHANGES the codes.



This is what I insert:



---------------------------------

<embed src="http://jaycut.com/flash/preview.swf" width="408" height="324" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" flashvars="file=http://jaycut.com/mixes/send_preview/4992&type=flv&returnUrl=http://jaycut.com/&author=tobiasadelgren&autostart=false&image=http://jaycut.com/mixes/thumbnail_big/4992&profileUrl=http://jaycut.com/user/tobiasadelgren"/>





-----------------------



this is the code that it is changed into:



-----------------------

><object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0" width="408" height="324"><param name="movie" value="http://jaycut.com/flash/preview.swf" /><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="menu" value="false" /><param name="wmode" value="" /><embed src="http://jaycut.com/flash/preview.swf" wmode="" quality="high" menu="false" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="408" height="324"></embed></object>

tinywysiwyg changing code
I Cannot Embed A Google Video In A Joomla Post

Go into the admin editor and TURN OFF tinywysiwyg - I usually keep it OFF - I just can't do much of anything otherwise

You guys need go to "Site-->Global configuration" and change "TinyMCE WYSIWG Editor" into "no WYSIWG Editor". Then go to your content and paste your video code. I tried your video codes in my own joomla site (Freemp3.servmn.com) and goes well. (Sorry for my bad english!!!)
