Video Format: Embed instead of link

Hello,

Is it possible to use an embed code instead of the link for the video format posts?

I want to use our videos from JW Player

iframe works?

Also, it seems the theme is automatically turning the embeds into spanish. Look:

I would love to know how you are getting iframe to work as I have tried adding iframe code from youtube videos and vimeo into the featured video section on post edit.

When you visit the page and press play the video does not play and shows this;

If you know of way to use iframe, I would love to know as not overly keen on just using video links as you cannot use the embed options.

Hey Catalin…

Using the embed iframe code does not work on any videos I try and use, believe me I have tried many times as most of my posts are either youtube or vimeo videos.

When you say…”video does not work because it’s broken or it’s private and cannot be viewed but only if you will be logged in”

Firstly they are not broken or private, because when I add the iframe embed code into the post text field, it works fine. See here.. http://www.inspireorb.com/you-create-your-reality/ – and what has being logged in got to do with anything… logged into what exactly.. but that aside…

…Here you can see i have used the embed code in the featured video and in the text section. Also video theme template 9 is in use.

So what do you have to say to this…?

Surely if the embed code iframe works ok in the post text field, why is it not working in the featured video section with your video templates?

Why are you hijacking my thread? Go open your own.

Catalin, kindly answer my questions.

Akaii… how am I hijaking, the issue I am raising is the same as yours.. what’s your problem??!! I would understand your point if there was no crossover whatsoever.

Catalin.. said you can use iframe, and we have both asked how!

I was looking for answers to the same issue you are experiencing and was given this thread in the search results. Trying to find an answer to this just as you are pal.

I do not see the point in opening another thread on the same issue.. where is the sense in that as the solution is going to be the same. It’s called being efficient and preventing the support guys from answering the same questions multiple times on multiple threads.

I though that was the whole purpose of this being an open chat forum.

I tell you what… Let’s ask Catalin.

Catalin.. would you like me to start another thread asking for an answer to the same question Akaii has asked, so you can waste your time going from thread to thread answering the same questions over and over again?

Hi Catalin,

The site’s default is English. It’s something specific with the theme turning it into Italian. I’ve never had this issue with any of the 15+ themes I’ve used – until switching to this one.

I also checked with my staff. All of whom confirmed they are using the English link.

I checked the source of page and it’s showing me this:

<div class="td-pb-span8 td-post-featured-video">
<div class="wpb_video_wrapper"><div id="fb-root"></div>
<script>(function(d, s, id) {
var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) return;
js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/it_IT/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.10";
fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
}


We can see the /it_IT/

I understand.

What about the embeds converting the video into Italian and setting it to mute by default?

It’s not youtube. It’s Facebook embeds.

Catalin,

It’s been 7 days and 18 posts and we still haven’t progressed.

The theme is turning the Facebook video embeds/player in Italian as well as muted by default.

I have a staging copy of my website and I tested it with other themes. It’s only coming from the Newspaper theme.
