Just a request, but I'd like an option to be able to specify the caption for a video or text for each link when using aslink, otherwise multiple videos can be a bit confusing.

Now why didn't I think of that

Would this be a good solution?
<videos youtube=code;code googlevideo=code;code ytaslink=title;title gvaslink=title;title />
this would not put a caption on an embedded video!!!

Wouldn't it be better to have the captions alongside the code? Something like:

<videos youtube=<code>//<caption>;<code>//>caption> googlevideo=<code>//<caption>;<code>//<caption> aslink />

And if the // is not there, forget the caption, and ignore it all if it's not aslink, or put the caption right next to the code at the bottom of the embedded video?

I know it's a lot more string management, but makes it a little easier for the user.

See... that's exactly why I asked first this time

I thinking a single forward slash would be sufficient, like this;
<videos youtube=code/caption;code/caption googlevideo=code/caption;code/caption aslink />
but we could use a '¤' char, couldn't we? What are the chances that '¤' is part of the title or code?
<videos youtube=code¤caption;code¤caption googlevideo=code¤caption;code¤caption aslink />

Now I know xyrano is gonna hate me but Videodetective.com has some nice trailers and they support embedded videos as well.  I wish I knew enough Javascript to do it myself.  That seems like a lot of code but I'm sure most of it can be removed.  The trailer ID is identified by the "PublishedID" value which I highlighted here.


<object classid='clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000' codebase='http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0' width='330' height='280' id='player' align='middle'><param name='allowScriptAccess' value='sameDomain' /><param name='allowFullScreen' value='true' /><param name='FlashVars' value='PublishedID=975' /><param name='movie' value='http://www.videodetective.com/codes/player.swf' /><param name='menu' value='false' /><param name='quality' value='high' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><param name='bgcolor' value='#ffffff' /><embed src='http://www.videodetective.com/codes/player.swf' menu='false' quality='high' wmode='transparent' bgcolor='#ffffff' width='330' height='280' name='player' align='middle' allowScriptAccess='sameDomain' allowFullScreen='true' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' flashvars='PublishedID=975' pluginspage='http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer' /></object>

Xyrano, if you feel you've done enough I can try to do it myself this coming week-end.

And we now have a decent title on the thread! Thanks Ken!

And I have learned my lesson... will always make the titles descriptive from the start!

How do you type ¤?

But yeah, we do need to be careful for what we use as a separator, since you never know when one of these providers will start using the designated separator character in their ID codes.

Wasn't nothing against you Touti!... we all have requests for him! and you never know... he just may be working on it... was just wondering if he was sorry he first got started on this one or not!

I personally would like to caption Embedded ones as well!  but not a huge deal either way.

I know it was nothing against me, I would just like to do my part.  It would be easy if videodetective supported direct links to the video like google but it doesn't.  It requres the whole object to be defined.  I'll try it anyway.

Which is why I put double slash in my "proposal", less chances of it happening. But any character that can be easily typed is alright by me (preferably without having to go to the Character Map).

Touti, I would wait for the answer from Xyrano is I was you. He might come back and post it with it already coded

Unless you feel the need to sharpen your javascript skills

I can't really sharpen something that is inexistent but after 20 years as a programmer I should go hide myself in shame if I can't manage to figure out less than a 100 lines of code.....including comments

Yeah I know the feeling. I know next to nothing about JavaScript, but my college degree is computer science, with a specialization in programming. But I've lost almost all of my programming skills, I haven't used them since then. But, it's still there, lurking, because I look at the code from Xyrano, and I can make out what it's doing, even though there's no way I could've coded that myself! 


To think that I graduated in Computer Science, and yet, these days, I do mostly graphics design.. the places a career can take you.
