I'm allowing users to post YouTube and Vimeo links only. I have no need for the browse/upload button. How can I get rid of this and make it default to the link field? Should I write a custom module to modify the form or am I missing something? Thanks.

If all you need is YouTube and Vimeo, (and if you don't need the media file browser) you might look into http://drupal.org/project/video_embed_field as an alternative.

I know this is an old issue, but the module threw me for a loop for a minute (I've used it before, but forgot).

This module adds an additional field widget: Embedded Media Field

This widget looks like a plain text field, but it validates the URL that is put into it against the enabled Media Internet Sources modules (i.e. YouTube, Vimeo, etc). So I think it would serve the purpose of disabling the library browse or upload buttons by simply not enabling them (i.e. you won't be using the Media Browser widget)
