Embedding videos from Gametrailers & Break.com

PCXL-Fan · May 6th, 2008

Just a thought,

I'd be kinda interested in seeing the ability to imbed videos from Gametrailers and break.com

I'm wondering if others are interested as well.

I understand enabling this is totally up to the discression of the site staff though and would require them to spend a certain amount of their own personal time to get it working. So not implememting it is 100% understandable.

Reasons for Break.com: This site hosts many videos not avaibable on youtube or ones have been taken down

Gametrailers: Higher quality stardard video. High def videos that actually work and load much much faster than youtube. Constant stream of new purely videogame related content, much of which originates on Gametrailers and takes a week or 2 to hit youtube, and when it does is almost always in inferior quality. Being purely videogame based it contains content not avaiable of youtube.

if you can find me the code for embedding and it's consistance like youtubes, i could put it in.

Only DailyMotion matters. The rest is highly trivial and not worth the time expense (is linking to the videos and the page containing it really that hard? )

Personally, the rollover (instead of highlight) spoiler script would be a wiser expense of time, but agreed, DM embedding would be nice. I believe this also was suggested in the past too (by me?).

I have a slight linking for this, but let us not sway too offtopic...

That would be good for me, since Gametrailer has a higher cap with the uploads, so I get better quality vids.

I don't know if the code above will work as its from a forum not utilizing vbulletin.

There is this however. But I don't have a vbulletin license to view the code

If none of these are what is needed I'll continue looking.

added break.com ones too

look at the first part of the embed code from the video

<object width="464" height="392"><param name="movie" value="http://embed.break.com/NTAyNDY1">

the bit we want is the "NTAyNDY1" which goes between the [break] tags.

so you get
