I'm having trouble posting a playable swf to the newsfeed a la "Feed Gaming". The open graph object in my_og.php (code below) looks fine in the facebook debugger and recognizes that it is a video embed. But when I post to the feed using the javascript api and feed dialog (code below), it doesn't recognize that it should be able to be clicked on and load the swf to play and just displays the static image.
js api call:
var obj = {method: 'feed', link: 'http://example.com/my_og.php'};
FB.ui(obj, function(response) {});
my_og.php :
<html lang="en" xmlns:fb="https://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml">
<head prefix="og: http://ogp.me/ns fb: http://ogp.me/ns/fb">
<meta property="fb:app_id" content="xxxxxxxxxxxx" />
<meta property="og:type" content="game" />
<meta property="og:url" content="http://example.com/my_og.php" />
<meta property="og:title" content="title" />
<meta property="og:description" content="desc" />
<meta property="og:image" content="http://example.com/test.png" />
<meta property="og:video" content="http://example.com/test.swf" />
<meta property="og:video:width" content="200" />
<meta property="og:video:height" content="200" />
<meta property="og:video:type" content="application/x-shockwave-flash" />
</head>
</html>
Try to add a "source" property that points to your swf file (instead of "video" in your code) and a "picture" property that points to your icon (instead of "image"). That is what I did and it started working
Started working without any changes. Must have been a fix on Facebook's side.

Try this ;)
Check your url here(URL debugger) to make sure you are providing info as expected by Facebook. Like to share image you need to add og:image property with meta tag.
Why are you adding following meta?
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; URL=uuuuuuuuuuu" />
This will redirect from current url to uuuuuuuuuuu
It is easy to put youtube video into meta tag. But I am trying to put a facebook page video into the og:video meta tag. However, the video doesn't show up. Any idea?

I found the facebook video download link can be used to put into the og:video and I changed the og:video:type to video/mp4. It works.
i have created an Open graph storie on my facebook app. I want to to integrate the code to my website...
this is the meta tags i use
<head prefix="og: http://ogp.me/ns# fb: http://ogp.me/ns/fb# rovespier: http://ogp.me/ns/fb/rovespier#">
<meta property="fb:app_id" content="349547121879416" />
<meta property="og:type" content="rovespier:art" />
<meta property="og:url" content="Put your own URL to the object here" />
<meta property="og:title" content="<?php $message; ?>" />
<meta property="og:image" content="http://www.rovespier.com/uploads/videos/images/142367443594.jpg" />
<meta charset="utf-8">
i used facebook debugger. the thing is that (because i use this code for mulptiple pages) in some pages the open graph shows ok but in some shows values like 'sample video' or another image from the one i specified on the meta tag or no image at all. Any idea why is that? Sounds kind of crazy
Start adding a width and a heigt to your og:image. If there is no image width or height set, it may take another image than the one that is defiend.
<meta property="og:image:width" content="200" />
<meta property="og:image:height" content="200" />
I added open graph tags to the following URL to enable video embedding on Facebook: http://store.staging.shoppost.in/Sm0OAdAleEW--6J6AW8brw
This worked up until a few days ago but now the thumbnail on the Facebook post no longer has the play button. Clicking on it now redirects to the URL rather than displaying the embedded Flash video. The puzzling thing is that the Facebook Object Debugger says there are no errors and that video embedding is enabled (as seen here).
Here are the open graph tags I am using:
<meta property="og:title" content="Wow, Look at that!" />
<meta property="og:type" content="product.item" />
<meta property="og:description" content="and now something that you've never seen before in all your days...." />
<meta property="og:image" content="http://media.staging.shoppost.in/physicalitems/0e1a8af7-736f-443e-b5e5-d09830c88f38/art/38213a2d-fe0e-4898-9d0e-80305c6e7230.jpg" />
<meta property="og:site_name" content="Shoppost" />
<meta property="og:video" content="http://store.staging.shoppost.in/ps/Sm0OAdAleEW--6J6AW8brw" />
<meta property="og:video:secure_url" content="https://store.staging.shoppost.in/ps/Sm0OAdAleEW--6J6AW8brw"/>
<meta property="og:url" content="http://store.staging.shoppost.in/Sm0OAdAleEW--6J6AW8brw" />
<meta property="og:locale" content="en_us"/>
<meta property="og:video:height" content="296" />
<meta property="og:video:width" content="526" />
<meta property="og:video:type" content="application/x-shockwave-flash"/>
I have been struggling with this for a while, please let me know if you have any insight. Thanks!
I have a page (URL) that visitors to my website can share on their wall. What I'd like is when their friends view the post in their feed that the link of the post clicks through to my website but that the post on their wall also include a video they can play directly in their feed.
I have been trying to get this to work with Facebook page meta data but so far no luck. I have added the following tags, is there anything obvious I'm missing?
<meta property="fb:app_id" content="xyz" />
<meta property="og:title" content="My Page Title" />
<meta property="og:type" content="video" />
<meta property="og:url" content="/url/to/my/site" />
<meta property="og:description" content="Lorem ipsum" />
<meta property="og:image" content="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCydfLwgXI" />
<meta property="og:video" content="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCydfLwgXI" />
<meta property="og:video:height" content="640" />
<meta property="og:video:width" content="385" />
<meta property="og:video:type" content="application/x-shockwave-flash">
<meta property="og:video:secure_url" content="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCydfLwgXI" />
Indeed, very popular question.
