youtube. Add comments

what are you gonna do when you see a video on youtube that has been embed disabled,which you desperately want to embed on your blog/website?,well don't worry next time,i have a solution.

check this video here i posted via my account.You can notice that i have disabled the embed option of the video,you can see that i have still embedded the same video below,wanna know how?,Just follow the steps i have described below the video

• Get Download link of the video

copy the url of the youtube video go to keepvid website,past url as shown in picture below and then click on download button and you will be shown the download link,copy the link location as 2nd picture and save the url so that you can use it later for this trick.

• Now copy this code and paste this code to where you want to publish it

<object width="430" height="375" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0"> <param name="salign" value="lt"> <param name="quality" value="high"> <param name="scale" value="noscale"> <param name="wmode" value="transparent"> <param name="movie" value="http://geekfile.googlepages.com/flvplay.swf"> <param name="FlashVars" value="&streamName=Your_flv_video_url&skinName=http://geekfile.googlepages.com/flvskin&autoPlay=true&autoRewind=true"> <embed width="430" height="375" flashvars="&streamName=Your_Flv_video_url&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;autoPlay=true&autoRewind=true&skinName=http://geekfile.googlepages.com/flvskin" quality="high" scale="noscale" salign="LT" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" src="http://geekfile.googlepages.com/flvplay.swf" wmode="transparent"></embed> </object>

• After you copy the code,replace"Your_Flv_video_url" in the code with the url you copied from Keepvid website
• you can adjust height by replacing height="430" and if you want to adjust the width just change "375" in width="375" to your desired value

and here is your result


Making the size of player small will increase video quality

   Hello,
   
   I was happy to find your post about Youtube. And i tried to apply your trick.
   
   Unfortunately it does not seem to work with other videos than the Indian clip from the example.
   
   Could you have a look to this youtube link:
   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gapZxBuVQvI
   
   I would like to embed this in one of my sites. But despite many trials it's not working :-(
   
   It would be really nice if you could have a look.
   
   Best regards.
