| Posted: | | | | Is there a way of doing this?... I while surfing the net with my daughter... we found our way to youtube... watching the opening theme for The Secrets of Isis... she is very excited about the upcoming release and can't wait to see it. I was wondering if there was some way of doing TV Show Openings/Movie trailers by using youtube. I know they have the code on each page for embedding them for webpages and such... but not sure this could be made to work in an html window... I tried putting the code in the notes section with html for notes on... but that didn't work. Any of you code geniuses out there know a way to make this work? I think it would be a good option for those of us that don't have the hard drive space to save trailers/TV Openings on our harddrive. | | | Pete |

| Posted: | | | | I just tried it and it worked perfectly. You need to take the code in the "embed" field on youtube. I just pasted the following code in my Notes field and it worked.
<object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/RokR9Dx4R6g"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/RokR9Dx4R6g" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object> | | | My 4x4 Club: Club FJ Cruiser Quebec DVDP Français: Forum DVD Profiler Français DVDCOL:DVD Collectors Online Video: LG RU-42PX10 Audio: Sony DreamSystem DAVFX100W | | | Last edited: by Touti |

| Posted: | | | | That is weird.. I put that same exact one into one of my profile notes to see and all I get is a blank field... but my scroll bar shows up like something is there... that is just not showing up. | | | Pete |

| Posted: | | | | Notes field working fine here too...
I don't see why an HTML window should be trouble... | | | Achim [諾亞信; Ya-Shin//Nuo], a German in Taiwan. Registered: May 29, 2000 (at InterVocative) |

| Posted: | | | | Yeah... I do. I keep it checked so that when I use... <epg=1> <gallery=#> It don't show up in the notes field. | | | Pete |

| Posted: | | | | Definitely have internet explorerer... not sure about a working flash plugin... but I would think so since I am able to see the videos online. Of course that is in firefox I don't know about IE since I never use it. but wouldn't the plugin work for both browsers? | | | Pete |

| Posted: | | | | You can check by going to the You Tube thread with IE, if they load then it's installed |

| Posted: | | | | Got it working!... You would not believe the problem!... I was checking the site on IE... and I couldn't get anywhere! so I called comcast.net! Last week when they were here solving a problem I had... they messed up the set-up.... it worked in firefox but not IE... so I called... they had me change a couple settings... and IE worked again... which allowed the video to load in dvdprofiler! Now... anyone here know a good way to give this it's own html window? I am not smart enough to do it myself. (Not code smart at all!) The only thing I can think of is doing a folder of html files by UPC... similar to what we do with Episode guides... and have something like <youtube=1> in notes to show where we have it. for that title. | | | Pete | | | Last edited: by Addicted2DVD |

| Posted: | | | | I think you could have <youtube=[youtubecode]> in notes? Like so (from Touti's post): <youtube=v/RokR9Dx4R6g> Whats 'v/' in 'v/RokR9Dx4R6g' anyway? |

| Posted: | | | | LOL... have no idea... I know very little about coding... basically enough to attempt to make something work by editing something else I have/had (such as the original epg idea.) | | | Pete |

| Posted: | | | | That's fine Addicted... lets brainstorm some more... Are we talking about multiple youtubs/profile or just 1? Is it necessary to have them locally?
If it's just the one and it's not to be stored locally we could alter some of the smaller HTML window code previously made. Like the Wiki, imdb or Gallery code. |
