The basic syntax looks like this: {{videosite>videoid?size}}. Where videosite is one of the identifiers listed below, and videoid is the identifier of the video at the respective site. The size parameter is optional. You can either give it in the form widthxheight like 500×300, or use the keywords small, medium or large. The video can be aligned by adding spaces on the left or right inside the curly brackets (like in the image syntax).

Display a YouTube Video:

{{youtube>L-WM8YxwqEU}}

Show a larger player:

{{youtube>L-WM8YxwqEU?large}}

Right-align the player :

{{ youtube>L-WM8YxwqEU}}

Show a small, centered player:

{{ youtube>L-WM8YxwqEU?small }}

Additional sites can be added to the sites.conf file in the plugin directory.

This plugins is optimized for sharing video website. It could be interesting to add two aspects to this plugin

1. display video from local DokuWiki
2. make use of html5 <video> tag

The idea is to fallback to video sharing service, if the browser does not handle html5 video tag. Exemple

<video src="myLocalVideo" controls>
    <object width="xxx" height="xxx">
      <embed src="XXX" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="xxx" height="xxx"></embed>
     </object>
  </video>

It seems there is a problem for flashvar parameters. In the code there is :

list(,$vars) = explode('?',$url,2); 
// later
html_flashobject(..,$data['vars'],$data['vars']);

but html_flashobject is waiting for an array of string and $vars is only a string. I suppose you want to take all parameters (key=value) defined by the user in the url (after the ”?”) in sites.conf and map them with <param> tag. It will be a great idea because some flash players need these parameters.For example to enable full screen support on youtube the user could set the url : http://www.youtube.com/v/@VIDEO@&fs=1?allowFullScreen=true.
