How to link a video

From Openwaterpedia

You can post a YouTube video like this:

by typing in <videoflash>8LRZYqXBMSI|600|360</videoflash>

The content can include hyperlinks, photos, text, dates and videos from various free video-sharing websites including YouTube, GoogleVideo, Vimeo, DailyMotion, Sevenload, Blip, Metacafe, Revver or any HTML5 videos in webm, mp4 and ovg formats.

If you would like to add a video to your entry in Openwaterpedia, you can use the following Wiki code (http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:VideoFlash):

To add YouTube videos, the appropriate Wiki code is: <videoflash>xxxxx</videoflash>.

For example, if the YouTube video URL is URL http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kq3Dw8YlgJg, then you enter kq3Dw8YlgJg.

Essentially, you take the last trail of letters and numbers in the URL (e.g., kq3Dw8YlgJg) and paste it instead of the xxxxx.

The Wiki Code would be <videoflash>kq3Dw8YlgJg</videoflash>

If you would like to adjust the width and height of the YouTube videos, you can add the following Wiki code: kq3Dw8YlgJg|200|100

The Wiki code will be <videoflash>kq3Dw8YlgJg|200|100</videoflash>

So you type in <videoflash>kq3Dw8YlgJg</videoflash>' or with width and height: <videoflash>kq3Dw8YlgJg|200|100</videoflash>

For GoogleVideo, if the video URL is http://video.google.it/videoplay?docid=1811233136844420765, then the appropriate Wiki code to add video is: 1811233136844420765.

or with width and height: 1811233136844420765|200|150

So you type in <videoflash type="googlevideo">1811233136844420765</videoflash> or with width and height: <videoflash type="googlevideo">1811233136844420765|200|150</videoflash>

For DailyMotion, if the video URL is http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xi23l_geris-game, then the appropriate Wiki code to add video is xi23l.

or with width and height: xi23l|640|480

For Vimeo, if the video URL is http://vimeo.com/9394817, then the appropriate Wiki code is 9394817

or with width and height: 9394817|640|480

So you type in <videoflash type="vimeo">9394817</videoflash> or with width and height: <videoflash type="vimeo">9394817|640|480</videoflash>

For Sevenload, if the video URL is http://en.sevenload.com/videos/Eh4mjir/Bewegungen-der-Natur, then the appropriate Wiki code is Eh4mjir

or with width and height: Eh4mjir|640|480

For Revver, if the video URL is http://one.revver.com/watch/138657, then the appropriate Wiki code is 138657

or with width and height: 138657|640|480

For MetaCafe, if the video URL is http://www.metacafe.com/watch/2387062/pump_it/, then the appropriate Wiki code is 2387062

For Blip, in order to get the correct ID, click on 'embed' in Blip and extract the ID used in the flash embed code. For example, the appropriate Wiki code is AdvpMQA.
