Doesn't work with current version (1.16a)
Just as EmbedVideo this fork doesn't work : "Catchable fatal error: Object of class EmbedVideo could not be converted to string in {url}/Setup.php on line 323" --Anton Dertovk 02:25, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

Custom Service not possible for FLV files?
Great code work! I'm just trying to figure out the URL for custom .FLV files I have on my webserver. I get the error message:

EmbedVideo received the bad id "Paramount_Previews.flv" for the service "bullfrog117".

The wiki code I used was this:

The LocalSettings.php mod I used was this:

require_once('extensions/EmbedVideo.php'); $wgEmbedVideoServiceList['bullfrog117'] = array(   'url' => 'http://bullfrog117.com/video/$1' );

The test page is here:

Any ideas? Bullfrog117 15:49, 22 December 2011 (UTC)

Likely broken in MW 1.18+
This is yet another extension calling $wgMessageCache->addMessage to add localisable strings?

There's no way this can work in MediaWiki 1.18 or later without modification as $wgMessageCache no longer exists. Current extensions typically include a *.i18n.php file with a hook to load the messages on startup and this extension will likely need this (or at least the addMessage stuff removed) to even try to run. That doesn't preclude other compatibility issues, such as that raised by the one previous user trying to deploy this to MW 1.16, but it is pretty much a guarantee that things will break under current MediaWiki. Error 500, anyone? --Carlb (talk) 06:07, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
