with the code:

<config>
  <link>http://example.com/</link>
  <file>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=weILNyHEqmI</file>
  <image>http://example.com/path-to-image.png</image>
  <repeat>true</repeat>
  <autostart>false</autostart>
</config>

it shows :

Video not found:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=weILNyHEqmI

What is the problem? What can I do?

Solution

  • Have you tried setting the provider to youtube?

    provider=youtube

    And are you reference the yt.swf? You need to host it for youtube video, if you look in Firebug where your player you should see a call to it.
