embed video hosted on remote sever (youtube.com or video.google.com)

The only thing I can think of is that Gallery is not allowing the raw HTML markup in the description field of the item you added. If you click on "edit item" what text appears in your description box? Make sure you followed the directions on the wiki page for this project that describe how to modify the gallery source code to allow the raw HTML markup to work properly.

I believe that I have figured it out, the theme that I use doesn't show the image description for the image. Are there any work-arounds for that?

yea, its the wordpressembedded theme, its the only theme that works well with my wordpress page. I guess I'll mess around with the theme and see if I can get the description field to work.

Thanks for the module....i installed it without any problems. but when im trying to add utube video or google evideo it goes through the process off accepting what i requested but finishes half way through and gives me a blank screen.

if you want i can give you the site admin password details for you to check it as the gallary is still not yet setup.

I m using the latest Gallery pack.

Thx for your support

Gallery version: 2.3
PHP version: 5.2.5
Gallery Link: http://soscomputers.org/joomla2/gallery/
Webserver: Apache 1.3.33

Youtube video url; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Cc6koI0fDo

I attempt to add the youtube video to a fresh install of your gallery plugin. It says it is succwwsful, it shows up on the page as if it is working correctly. BUt when I click on the thumbnail, I see it as an image, with no video playback.

I've followed the directions on: http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery2:Modules:embedvideo

I attempt to add the debugOutput=true variable but it never shows up. I have turned on the debug setting in the gallery config file. I've left it on and attached the debug output (debug.txt) from adding the video in the Youtube video url above.

I also could not save the html file so attached a screenshot - Untitled-1.jpg

If you need anything, just let me know.

The next step in the process (based on your debug output) is the action of applying the watermark to the image. That involves calling some internal Gallery methods that depend on various graphics toolkits being installed. The next step is calling some other gallery internal methods to add the item to the photo album. So, the first thing you can try is disabling watermarks. If that works, then you have some kind of problem with the graphics toolkits you have installed in gallery. Give that a shot.

I just added a new parameter called "centerVideo" that will add html centering tags "<center>" to the beginning of the description (embed video code) and "</center>" to the end of it. It will be in the next release, coming very soon.

You have done nothing wrong. The script relies on youtube API calls to extract information about the video from the youtube site. After posting a new video to youtube, it can take up to 24-48 hours for them to make information about that video available through this API. So, if you try to add it again in a day or two, it should work just fine...

Error on new video.

Please help. Thank you.

It's working fine now. Thank you.

When I try to add a YouTube video, I get the following error:

hi there,

I've been using this module without any problem. I did not need it for quite a while, and today, I'm facing an issue I do not understand:

This is not a "video not found" problem, since this video has been uploaded few days ago, and tagged as Public.
So, what is it?...

Thanks for your great job & help!

sincerely

An excellent catch! I've made the fix to the code and will release it in the next release. Thanks for your help.

Have installed this plug in and it works but I tried to change the variables in the Embed Video Settings and am having trouble. I deleted height and width and tried to reenter using larger numbers (640 by 360) to allow for the video to play larger than the default that was set in the original install. When I enter the variable and click on the add variable button, the new variable is not added to the list. I also tried Add a new override variable and nothing worked there either. Any ideas?

Thanks
Sue

I am trying to get this module to work on my G2 installation here: http://hovedogs.co.uk/gallery/gallery2/main.php

I have turned on Raw html and completed the commenting out to the GalleryUtilities.class file.

I just get this when I try to embed a link:

Error (ERROR_BAD_PATH) : Unable to get video information at url: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tTf2YHxaVw -

I cannot seem to add the debug variables nor any others for that matter.

Anyone any idea what is going on here...do I have to have a youtube devID, if so how do I get it please?

I just managed to add a link to a myspace video, so it does appear to be an error from youtube rather than one of my configuration.

since YouTube does make lots of changes, will it work OK with metacafe or dailymotion?
