Unable to embed videos from youku

This is not a supported video provider. If you'd like to try and make a provider file, please take a look at youtube.inc.

leaving this open if someone wants to take a go at it someday :) though i don't know the language, so wouldn't even know where to begin with studying its api.

A patch has been submitted that adds youku capabilities:
http://drupal.org/node/230571

Please give it a try and add any problems you have to that queue.

that patch doest not include Youku and does not work very well.

youku.com has provided the swf address, may the directly quote:
http://player.youku.com/player.php/sid/XMTI0NTcwNzY=/v.swf

As Youku is very popular in China, can someone help to support it ? thx

I have created a module for this at
http://drupal.org/project/media_youku

The dev snapshot will be available in the next 12hrs time.
