Problem with Photobucket videos?

[TomCat]

Most likely a noob question, but here it goes. Okay I've been using Photobucket forever to post pictures in posts for Dynasty/Association stories or whatever and had no problems and now I'm trying to post a video which I've uploaded onto Photobucket with no problems but I'm having trouble posting it into one of my posts. Just wondering if it is possible to post videos from Photobucket, and if so, how to do it? Thanks..

EDIT: I just went ahead and used youtube to embed the video because I have no problems with that.. Still wondering if it's possible to embed photobucket vids though..

take the flash embed code

Code: Select all

<embed width="600" height="361" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowFullscreen="true" allowNetworking="all" wmode="transparent" src="http://static.photobucket.com/player.swf?file=http://vid0006.photobucket.com/albums/0006/pbhomepage/video4a/panelpanda.flv">

copy the entire HTTP link

Code: Select all

http://static.photobucket.com/player.swf?file=http://vid0006.photobucket.com/albums/0006/pbhomepage/video4a/panelpanda.flv

then add our flash embed code

Code: Select all

[flash=600,361]http://static.photobucket.com/player.swf?file=http://vid0006.photobucket.com/albums/0006/pbhomepage/video4a/panelpanda.flv[/flash]

There was a problem playing your video

The video has an invalid format - Unable to load video

Edit: Worked second time around.
