[edit] Blip

Currently blip uses urls like: http://blip.tv/file/1490573

You cannot use the above ID with the code

http://blip.tv/play/$someID

which is used in this VideoFlash extension.

To get the correct ID to use click on 'embed' in Blip and extract the id used in the flash embed code

 <embed src="http://blip.tv/play/AdvpMQA" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="640" height="510" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed>

Wiki code:

<videoflash type="blip">AdvpMQA</videoflash>

note: I don't know why Blip.tv uses different ID's in it's embed code as opposed to it's url. I suspect it may be changing over or something, which is why I haven't suggested editing the code of this extension to use the 'file' rather than the 'play' url for Blip.

[edit] Globo Vídeos (Brazil)

by alexandre260678@hotmail.com

$url['globovideo']='http://video.globo.com/Portal/videos/cda/player/player.swf?midiaId=%1$u';

Wiki code:

<videoflash type="globovideo">1056877</videoflash>
