I have an account at screencast.com, which allows me to upload .swf and .flv videos. For each video I have 2 options for adding code to blog.

1. An <a=href...> described to embed link: Copy and paste this HTML to embed a link to your content. For example embed this link on a web page or blog.
- Adding this just produces a text link that takes viewer to screencast account (not what I am looking to do)

2. An <object...> described to Embed Video: Embed on your page HTML to embed this content on your website or blog.
- Pasting this object link shows the video in the blog (which is what I want to do), but it also gives an error (Illegal tag: object). Not sure how I should, or if I can integrate videos from screencast.com to my blog (running v2.4.5)

Thanks,

Why don't you post the full <object...etc > code in full and I'll see if it can be added to the video button library for you.

Maybe I'm not certain how to add this code to a post. I was simply pasting it in to the post, had not used the video button... Here is the code from one of the videos:

<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="640" height="480"> <param name="movie" value="http://content.screencast.com/users/Troy_at_TLC/folders/Default/media/e594ede4-b880-445a-ac1e-d8dddfc8fe44/flvplayer.swf"></param> <param name="quality" value="high"></param> <param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF"></param> <param name="flashVars" value="thumb=http://content.screencast.com/users/Troy_at_TLC/folders/Default/media/e594ede4-b880-445a-ac1e-d8dddfc8fe44/FirstFrame.jpg&width=640&height=480&content=http://content.screencast.com/users/Troy_at_TLC/folders/Default/media/e594ede4-b880-445a-ac1e-d8dddfc8fe44/PPT07_Zoom_1.flv"></param> <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param> <param name="scale" value="showall"></param> <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param> <param name="base" value="http://content.screencast.com/users/Troy_at_TLC/folders/Default/media/e594ede4-b880-445a-ac1e-d8dddfc8fe44/"></param> <embed src="http://content.screencast.com/users/Troy_at_TLC/folders/Default/media/e594ede4-b880-445a-ac1e-d8dddfc8fe44/flvplayer.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" width="640" height="480" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowScriptAccess="always" flashVars="thumb=http://content.screencast.com/users/Troy_at_TLC/folders/Default/media/e594ede4-b880-445a-ac1e-d8dddfc8fe44/FirstFrame.jpg&width=640&height=480&content=http://content.screencast.com/users/Troy_at_TLC/folders/Default/media/e594ede4-b880-445a-ac1e-d8dddfc8fe44/PPT07_Zoom_1.flv" allowFullScreen="true" base="http://content.screencast.com/users/Troy_at_TLC/folders/Default/media/e594ede4-b880-445a-ac1e-d8dddfc8fe44/" scale="showall"></embed> </object>
