Subject: Embedded Flash Object Not Showing
Forward | Print | Individual message | Report this message | Find messages by this author
Hi,

I have the problem that some embedded flash object are not shown.

If I use YouTube videos, it works fine - embedding e.g. a WordPress
flash video from wordpress.org didn't work.

Here is the source code that is the basis of the FeedBurner feed
(http://feeds.feedburner.com/MarcoLutheOnline) and which does NOT work
in Google Reader:

<div>
<object width="400" height="224">
<param name="movie" value="http://v.wordpress.com/hFr8Nyar"></param>
<param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param>
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param>
<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param>
<embed width="400" height="224" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
src="http://v.wordpress.com/hFr8Nyar" allowScriptAccess="always"
allowFullScreen="true"></embed>
</object>
</div>

Here is a YouTube example that works in Google Reader:

<div>
<object width="425" height="344">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/8t8aHowRb74"></
param>
<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param>
<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param>
<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/8t8aHowRb74" type="application/x-
shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"
width="425" height="344"></embed>
</object>
</div>

Hmmm... I will try to get rid of WMODE in the first example.. maybe
that is the problem.

- Marco

I have also experienced this problem - youtube is fine, but other
video players/mp3 players often aren't. Pretty annoying.

BTW:
Deleting WMODE didn't help - it's still not visible.

We have taken a whitelist approach to embedded video, thus we'll need
to include WordPress for its embeds to show up. This should happen in
the next Reader release.

Please keep in mind that the video appeared on wordpress.org, but is
actually hosted on wordpress.com, which you can see in the embed code.
Just wanted to make that clear, I think one could get confused reading
my initial post.

Thanks!

BTW:
Wouldn't it be nice to make that whitelist public, so everyone knows
what site content is one is able to embed?ŽAnd maybe you could even
add a form, so that new sites could be submitted.

Hi Saphod,

Thanks for the suggestions. We're actually currently working on ways
to make it easier to submit embedded media players for verification
and eventual inclusion in Reader. We've proceeded cautiously due to
security concerns but are always looking for ways to make using Reader
a richer experience. Thanks for bringing this to the forefront.

Thanks again,
Roger

Hi there,

Yes, I am having a similar problem, but with Photoshelter photos and
slideshows embedded in my wordpress blog posts. (The actual content is
on the Photoshelter servers)

Please do what you can to make more flash content show up in Reader!

Thanks

Tony

Apparently most people don't have problems getting YouTube videos to
display in Google Reader, but I do.

Subscribers to my blog can not see embedded videos within Google
Reader.
The blog is at http://www.solacesystems.com/blog, and I checked the
feed and the video IS being included: http://feeds.feedburner.com/SolaceSystemsBlog

The code is taken directly from the "Embed" field in Youtube.
<object width="425" height="344" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/
XdBd14rjcs0&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-
flash"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param
name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src"
value="http://www.youtube.com/v/XdBd14rjcs0&hl=en&fs=1" /

><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /></object></p>

Any idea how/what I'm screwing up?

Never mind. Figured it out. Somehow the copied "embed" code was wrong.
