Hi everybody. I want to embed more than one showmedo video on the same
webpage. Including one or the other works fine, but both at the same
time only show the first one and not the second one (only alternate
text visible). Is this possible?

How did you solve it? I know that the Flash player we use has issues with some versions of Safari but otherwise I think it 'should just work'.

Can you give us a link? I'm curious to know what you're showing.

I'm not Harald but I solved it as well back when I was placing videos onto
www.python.org pages. You just need to edit the HTML/JavaScript provided by
showmedo.com to use unique identifiers for each video region.

to be specific, you just have to edit the js snippet provided by the
wiki page. maybe this should be included there!
create a new variable, _AND_ (that was my fault) create another id-
identifier element and reference to that in the js code.

i'm showing two introduction screencasts for Sage (open source
mathematics software package)
http://lite.sagemath.org/help-video.html (note for the future: the
"lite" subdomain will be removed once this page is out of development
and replacing the current one)

PS: the player seems to work fine, no issues so far...

Thanks Harald (and Jeff), I've updated the wiki page:
http://wiki.showmedo.com/index.php/Embedding_Videos

I've been meaning to make a special showmedo page for ages that generates the embed code automatically, I'll bump it up my list.

Ian.
