Embedding videos
Posted: Thu Jan 26, 2012 12:54 am
I just added an experimental feature for video embedding. Basically you just add the link for the video to your tease and the site automatically turns it into an embedded video player.
Only specific whitelisted sites are supported. (See list below.)
Usage
To embed a video, you simply add the link to the video in the text of your tease. The link must be on a line of its own otherwise it won't work. It has to be the full link including http.
For testing you can create a page with this text:
Supported Sites
The following sites are currently supported, please note the format of the URL and check that your URL looks similar.
Milovana now needs your help in these three areas:
Caveat: Please note that the videos are embedded and not hosted on Milovana. There is a very real chance that the video will be removed and XTube may one day change their policies on embedding or even shut down for whatever reason. So when you use this feature you are risking that your tease will one day spontaneously break. We'll do our best to fix teases that are broken in this way, which may include contacting you to request a fix or even letting the community vote on a suitable replacement video.
Note: Unfortunately, we cannot add this feature for FlashTeases, however it will very likely be added to Eos (the FlashTease successor) at some point.
Edit: Added xHamster, XXNX and Empflix support.

No preview image before you click play. Annoying logo intro.

Sometimes shows an ad for a long time while buffering.

Milovana now needs your help in these three areas:
- What are the most important video sites that we need to add?
- A lot of older teases have links in them - did any of them get messed up?
- Try making a tease with the new feature and report any problems!
