I've used a small jQuery library called FitVids.js on projects in the past and it has worked great.

That's a nice lib.

"ooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooo" is what I said, when I resized my browser on that FitVids page...

Right? It was so damn graceful.

@psychobunny coughcough this is needed muchly.

Must have.

Is it possible to change this plugin so that instead of automatically embedding the video it will require some sort of enable characters?
Sort of like BBcode?

So [yt]youtubevidelink[yt]?
or something like the markdown image function ![youtube](youtubelink)?

We heavily rely on the shoutbox plugin and when someone postes a youtube link it embeds the video and it takes up quite a lot of space. It could be something added to the admin cp to automatically embed or require some sort of enable code.

Or is there any way we can limit the size of the embed?

[julian]

@Scuzz Yeah, personally I'd prefer a markup as well.

Possibly definable in the ACP page for this plugin...

I like this, makes sense. IMO I'm not going to bother updating this because what we really should do is make a global embed plugin one that handles all the major video hosting sites

@psychobunny Something like embed.ly embed API would be fantastic. Just without all the advertising and re-embed icons etc etc.

[Schamper]

@a_5mith I actually have a half-finished plugin that uses the Embed.ly api... Barely got enough time for all the other stuff I have to do though.

[a_5mith]

@Schamper Is their anything you're not building. Good work dude, looking forward to what you come up with.

[Beatmax]

Nice Plugin!

Is there a way to show a small version or at least a thumbnail of the video in the category overview?
If someone posts only a video without any text, it looks like an empty post in the overview.

TY

@Beatmax I've been meaning to test something with this, I'll have a look into possibilities after the Austrian Grand Prix, my man Hamilton is flying!

[Beatmax]

@a_5mith
