It's working great I just wonder is there a way to render the object text from the template side instead having to specify the [video:] filter syntax in the node? I say that just bc even though it's simple enough for the user to type in [video:url] it would be even easy if I just had them paste the url then I made it render correctly from the node template. How would I do that or is that something that would have to be added?

I'll have to think about this, but I can see the use for it. It should be added as a setting, so site admins can decide. Patches welcome.

Marked #221719: parsing as duplicate. Mentioned issue has link to a Simple Machine forum plugin that might be useful.

Agree this would be a useful feature to 'dumb down' the content creation process by non-technical people.

I agree also. It would seem there should be some simple way to do this without adding a special tag, at least for YouTube. Could there be some way to make a filter that detects a YouTube URL and adds the tag?

For the site I am working on, most nodes will be submitted via email. I want them to be able to email videos directly from YouTube (which doesn't allow adding tags) and have them show up as players on the site.

Thanks.

That would be great, do you have a link to the module? I can't find it.

It is part of the emfield module package (link at #8) and it is listed within group "other" at your modules page.

Ahah, cool. Do you know if there needs to be a field on the node for this to work?

The module i'm talking about works as an input filter with just the video url without brackets.

Thanks for the tip, but I'm not seeing this module anywhere on my modules page. I just reinstalled emfield and ran update, but still can't find it. What is the exact name that appears on the modules page?

Update: I found it. It's in the dev release of emfield. I'm trying it out now. Thanks again.

Another update: I can't seem to get the emfield inline filter module to work, but no go. Any tips on how to make it work? I will file an issue over at the emfield page.

Parsing simple URL's would male this module much more useful.

If I understand correctly (I didn't read the whole post) you are looking for something like http://drupal.org/project/googtube
