Facebook video cannot be embedded - facebook

I have a problem embeding cerain videos in my website. Video I uploaded few mounths ago, and was embeded perfectly now shows a dark blue screen with the message "this video cannot be embedded". I checked with other videos I found, they all seams to work with my code. I tried "editing" the video on facebook, and there is a check box "Prohibit embedding", which is not selected. Baside that, I couldn't find anything related.
Why can't I embed my video?

Youtube video view in swift

Is there a way to present youtube videos in app other than using webView, I've tried YoutubePlayer_in_WKWebView and hasn't been working. webView works but I just want the video to be displayed, not the whole page.
You would have to obtain the actual video file if you want just the video to display without the rest of the YouTube page. While officially it's unethical to rip videos from YT, unofficially it's not that hard.

Tips on using webview to play an embedded Flash movie

I've tried (without success) to get a video to play within a webview. I can see the video thumbnail with the default play button overlaying the video.
When I click the play button - the entire video hi-lights in transparent yellowish/orange. Clicking play again causes the Play button to blink. The thumbnail always remains, but never plays. I can even see the timeline below the video with the play-head, etc. I can never touch the video controls, because every click treats the entire video like one big button - and hi-lights like mentioned above.
They are numerous videos to be played and they are not at YouTube, so launching the YT player with an intent isn't desired.
I'm using SDK 8 (2.2), runing on a 2.3.6 device, and Have the latest Flash Player 11.xxxxx installed.
Any suggestions?
Took another approach in the app.

Adding a YouTube video to my application

I am trying to embed a YouTube video in my application, and I am going through this tutorial as a start. I get the red screen when I run it on the stimulator, so I presume everything went well.
Now when the user taps on the screen while the video is playing I need a toolbar to appear, with a slider showing the length of the video (and the user could slide to his/her desired time on the video).
I need to know if this feature comes by default when you embed the YoutTube video, or do i have to code it? If i have to code it how should i do it? Any sample codes or tutorial?
The only way to show a YouTube video in an iOS app is by having it inside a UIWebView (that is what the tutorial walks you through). Once the user taps the "play" button, the video should go full screen and automatically present the standard video controls that you see when you play videos on iOS.
Youtube provides the HTML code for embedding videos in web pages. This HTML code will also produce a video when embedded in a UIWebView. While the video is playing, all of the standard Youtube video controls (Play, Pause, Time Slider) should also show up in the UIWebView.

Youtube iPhone issue

I want to play a youtube video on a website trough a hyperlink (a website for iOS devices such as iPhone/iPod/iPad). This works almost perfect except I have one big issue:
• When the video is done, I do not get the "done" button in the top left of the youtube video you would expect to bring you back to the website from where you clicked the youtube hyperlink.
Instead, it seems the youtube iphone app is opened and "done" reads "back". Pressing back brings the user to the youtube app main page, to return to the website he has to double tap the home button to go to safari and select the website.
The result I am looking for is the same that happends when you click on an embedded youtube movie, instead of in my case: a hyperlinked youtube movie (this will play in fullscreen and displays a done button which brings you back to the webpage that movie was embedded on).
Is it possible to do this?
I'm not a iOS developer, but I have an iPhone and watch quite a few videos on it.
As far as I can tell, iOS opens the YouTube app whenever you click on a YouTube link ... and stays in it after you've finished playing. That's what you mean by "there's now done button".
Doing a little research, I found this post. To embed yt videos in your site, use an iframe, like so:
<iframe type="text/html" width="640" height="385"
src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/VIDEO_ID" frameborder="0"></iframe>
where VIDEO-ID is the string you find at the end of yt links (e.g. C8Wu3Bps9ic in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8Wu3Bps9ic).
Hope that helps!

Issue exiting video after playing(ios phonegap app)

I am currently using iwebkit and phonegap together. Once everything is compiled and tested on an idevice, I can click a video link and get it to play. It play full screen but it uses the ios web video player (the one that doesn't have the "done" button" and the top and has a bar that spans the bottom of the screen. I can then press the full screen button to have it use the regular ios media player but when i click done from that, it doesn't take me back to the part of the app before the video, it just takes me to the full screen video in the web player. I hope someone can help me solve this and I hope I was able to describe my problem in a clear way. I've spent 2 hours searching and have come up with nothing.
I'm having the same problem. iOS 4.3.x introduced this problem as far as I can tell. There's a few comments about it on Apple's developer site but so far I haven't found any solution. Part of the problem seems to be Phonegap because I experience the exact same thing you describe when running the compiled app. However, if I simply browse to the same HTML pages it seems to work fine. Note - I changed from directly linking to video files to using the HTML5 tag. Using the tag works better than direct linking in Phonegap -- the videos still open in the player but when you click the Done button it returns to where it was. Keep in mind that if you do this the video will be on the inline in the page and paused but when you click the play button it opens in the player. The only problem I've found with this solution is that it won't rotate when you change from portrait to landscape when running in the phonegap app but it does rotate when browsing to the video in mobile safari. Not sure if any of that helps. I would be interested in what you've been able to work out since you posted.
