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



Wiki code: AdvpMQA

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.

Questions and Concerns
The above listed video sources are not functional. I am running the latest version of absolutely everything, including Windows 7 (not that it matters), in addition to the latest XAMPP, the latest MySQL, the latest MediaWiki, the latest Firefox and latest IE browsers, the latest Java, Flash, etc. I am fully up-to-date.

The videos on Dailymotion, Sevenload, Revver and Google do not function. The flash player for Sevenload doesnt even render in the browser (leaves an ugly gap), while the other four renders but does not play.

Currently there is no support for videos on:
 * TeacherTube

History

 * 1.1 - 2007-03-24 - Added Revver support; fixed xss vulnerability (tnx Jimbojw)
