Youtube plugin and blip.tv

1 Mar 07, 2007 10:59    

Hi there,

I'm trying to use the YouTube plugin to display a video from Blip.tv. I've used it OK in the past to post Google video so I know the plugin is working.

When I try to embed a blip.tv video the player appears, but it's not picking up the video itself.

The underlying code is showing: 


<div class="youtube center">
<embed src="http://blip.tv/scripts/flash/blipplayer.swf?autoStart=false&amp;file=http://blip.tv/file/get/167352" quality="high" name="movie" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" height="256" width="320">
</div>

I think the problem is with the 

&amp;

which I think should be a straight &.

Where would I find that in the plugin code?

The ampersand is not the problem. For blip.tv you have to paste in the file name rather than an id number.

Thanx, good job.

[u]Question[/u]: is it possible to extend the plugin for some other video portals as well? I have to have a deeper look in some of them, but maybe the one or the other has some nice things or features, the currently supported ones don´t habe...
