Instructions for embedding video in this wiki
From Mizzou Wiki
To embed video in the wiki, use the following code:
- {{#ev:service|id}} -or-
- {{#ev:service|id|width}}
Where:
- service is the name of a video sharing service.
- id is the id of the video to include
- width (optional) is the width in pixels of the viewing area (height will be determined automatically)
When you find a video on a video sharing service like YouTube, Daily Motion, Google Video, and others, there is an id associated with that video. On YouTube, for instance, you find the id in the URL YouTube gives you for that video. For example, "The Evolution of Dance" video has the following URL:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=dMH0bHeiRNg
Thus, dMH0bHeiRNg is the id.
To embed this video on your page, you'd write the id in the code accordingly:
{{#ev:youtube|dMH0bHeiRNg}}
and that would show this video:
And if you wanted the video scaled down to thumbnail size, you could use the pixel based number "100":
{{#ev:youtube|dMH0bHeiRNg|100}}
to get:
Or to insert a video from Daily Motion, you would write:
{{#ev:dailymotion|7tE9MbSfWo9YaeNRP|300}}
And that will give you:
The code will work with the following services:
You can visit Project Homepage for more examples. The extension for embedding video comes from this site.
Right now, the wiki cannot have internal video hosting.
