NoahT Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 Can you embed video from facebook in a post here on cc.com? I know how to get the embed code from facebook, and have been embeding videos to blogger.com. Curious about doing it here. Thx--N Quote
olyclimber Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 I hadn't heard of a lot of people doing that, but if there are people out there that want to use facebook video to embed here, I can make it happen. Quote
NoahT Posted September 28, 2009 Author Posted September 28, 2009 Hi Jake-- Might be a good option for the future (or present). Facebook is nifty because they let you upload videos up to 20 min long (vs youtube's 10 min max) and up to 1GB ( which is less than youtube's 2GB max). I've found it easy to put together vids over 10 min long, but compress them to less than 1GB. I think youtube's 10 min/2GB may be set with HD vids in mind--not something I've done. Something to think about! Cheers, noaht Quote
olyclimber Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 Cool...good to know. I'll add it in when i get a moment and drop you a note if there is some video you want to share from there. Quote
goatboy Posted October 4, 2009 Posted October 4, 2009 I have some amusing FB videos I'd like to embed if it becomes an option here on cc.com. Quote
olyclimber Posted October 5, 2009 Posted October 5, 2009 heh sorry i was not clear. it is possible right now. click on the icon in a post window...to the right of the camera icon (the same for posting a youtube or other video). i added this feature. you can see my faceboo video above, and i used this functionality to add it.

goatboy Posted October 5, 2009 Posted October 5, 2009 I'll try again... [video:facebook]http://www.facebook.com/video/?ref=sb#/video/video.php?v=1049270957851 Quote
olyclimber Posted October 6, 2009 Posted October 6, 2009 Hey there! You only need to put in the code after "...video.php?v=". something does appear to be not working here! it might be how Facebook sizes the video...i'll do some checking. Quote
olyclimber Posted October 6, 2009 Posted October 6, 2009 be sure to just use the number at the end of the URL of your video. Quote
