Hey guys, I try embedding a youtube video on the demo page and on my own local host and neither one works. I tried doing it through the flash button on the toolbar and pasting the embed object code into the source and all I get is a box with the word "flash" in red in the middle. I have been trying with good links from youtube, and when I use the flash button from the toolbar, I don't even get a preview.
Needless to say, I have flash player installed (I can watch stuff on youtube), so I am really puzzled by why this is not working, even on the demo page on cksource.com!
I am really stumped guys I must be missing something. Please help!

You will not get the answer in this forum.
Re: embed video not working on demo page
I see your posts around the forum and I think we have the same problem. Do you have any idea how to get the video playing in the editor not on the demo site but on your own setup? Is there anyway to get ckeditor to work like it should in terms of embedded video?

If you answer no to both questions, can you recommend any alternatives to ckeditor that will embed videos properly?
It just annoys the hell out of me that it keeps saying I don't have flash player installed so I can't play it. That is just not true. I have flash player installed and the shockwave player installed (I don't get the difference) but the embedded video still won't play. Even if I just paste in the embed code from youtube straight into the source it won't play!!
Got a reply on stackoverflow.

The trick is to save the data using editor.getData(), the ckeditor will replace the flash image(fake object) with the actual code. Hope this helps
