Description
I've been playing around with the Video CCK module, but I can't figure out how to get the video to display. I've created node-video.tpl.php, but I don't know what to put in there to display the video, and I couldn't find any documentation anywhere.
Looking through the code, I see that there's a bunch of theme functions, but if I need to call them or what.
Right now, I just have
<?php print $node->field_video_link[0]['embed'] ?>Which of course just prints the link instead of embedding it.
I see the
function theme_video_cck_video($field, $item, $formatter, $node) {But if I have to call that from my template file, I don't know what $formatter is...
I'm sure it's not too hard, it's just a matter of understanding how to do it. Thanks for this great module and your help.

<?phpprint $node->field_video_link[0]['view']
?>

I put that in my tpl.php and it doesn't put out anything. The cck field doesn't have that field:
Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[embed] => http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OEjh0P_IPI0
[value] => OEjh0P_IPI0
[provider] => youtube
)
)

Fixed the problem-- I had an older version of CCK. Make sure yours is updated!
#4
Youtube movies are enabled in CCK-video configuration. Without API
Embed code or Video URL:
http://www.youtube.com/v/k8BUIUVjstg
In my contemplate I wrote:
<?phpprint $node->field_video[0]['view']
?>
In the body/teaser variables, this is showed:
$node->field_video (array)$node->field_video[0] (array)
$node->field_video[0]['embed']
http://www.youtube.com/v/k8BUIUVjstg
$node->field_video[0]['value']
$node->field_video[0]['provider']
$node->field_video[0]['view']
No video code is displayed in the instance of the content type.
Why?
Great thanks.
