One more thing. In your opinion, will your plugin give me headache if I use WordTube plugin (because of Jeroen Wijering’s player) on same installation?

Yes, my plugin uses Jeroen Wijering’s player but only for FLV files. YouTube videos for example are played back via YouTube’s player.

JW’s player is the most widely used player for FLV playback for a reason — it’s damn good. Plus if you want to use it on a commercial website, the license is only 20 Euros.

Support for http://oembed.com/ might solve some of your problems

That is very slick, although it requires that the server be able to make a remote connection (not all can). Plus it’s list of supported sites isn’t that long and the next version of my plugin already supports quite a few on that list via URL parsing.

I have plans for using the HTTP API that will be in WordPress 2.7 though to add support for sites that don’t have a URL in common with their embed code.

Please try not to ignore WPMU while developing this baby. Thanks.

I’m actually developing this with WPMU in mind (gonna submit it to a WPMU plugin competition). Although honestly a properly coded plugin doesn’t actually need any changes to be made WPMU compatible. Installing my plugin for WPMU will just involve installing normally and then moving just the main plugin file to the mu-plugins folder.

Although my UI does do some WPMU checks to hide features designed for regular WP users (such as custom CSS).

I’ve been using your plugin for a while now on my blog. I’d really like the ability to embed YouTube playlists in my Wordpress posts. Many thanks for all your hard work.

Yep, the next version will support that. :)

I wondered why the interface I was seeing in my console didn’t look at all like the screenshots here or at the plugin repository… in fact, I have only one quicktag button even in the visual editor and it doesn’t at all resemble the ones shown in the screenshots for this plugin, but it works just the same.

The screenshots on the repository are old and were taken on an old version of WordPress which used an old version of TinyMCE (the rich editor). The configuration screen should look nearly identical to the ones there though.

Looking forward to the new version, too.
