How does one embed a video from Hulu? YouTube videos are straightforward, and the disclaimer in the 'insert video' button says Hulu is supported also, but when I post the link with the video tags for a Hulu video, it just posts a hyperlink; no embedded video.

I've also tried using the embed code but that was a step backwards, if anything. :p

I didn't find the video on YouTube that I'm trying to use; otherwise I would have defaulted to that.

Any ideas?
 
I found a picture that sums up all that I know about embedding videos, Khatru.

Post what you tried - exactly as you tried it - for the Hulu video. (using 'noparse' tags)

:)
 
I notice that the html code being generated is different for Hulu and YouTube -- Hulu gets a simple anchor with 'href='; YouTube gets a dimensioned iframe with 'src=' -- I think this is a RoboOp question now...

:)
 
On a whim, I also tried:

[video=hulu;1183]http://www.hulu.com/watch/1183[/video]
[video=hulu;1183]http://www.hulu.com/embed/1183[/video]

- which produced different html code than the other times with the "Insert Video" feature of the editor - but that looked like it ought to have worked - but did not...

You should try flushing your DNS. :p

lol ipconfig /flushdns or.....hit Repair in the network properties..:)

Haha yeah I'm familiar with the command line. PopTop is trolling me (inside joke). :p

Hmm, I was hoping to not bug him but it looks like I must bug away. Thanks GRA! BTW, did you ever figure out your anonymous poll conundrum?
