I am trying urgently to embed video from the Copenhagen climate change conference on my site. The on-demand webcasts of the meeting (see http://www1.cop15.meta-fusion.com/kongresse/cop15/templ/ovw.php?id_kongr... can supposedly be embedded). I have followed the instructions to create the embed code, and copied it into a blog post on my site. The instructions from the Copenhagen website are simply:
"You can copy this code into your homepage to embed the videosequence you selected." I have video filters working and other video links working fine. What to do???? Should I simply put the code inside [video: ] as with a normal url??

Input format is Full HTML, as you suggested.

Hmmm, not sure. When I copy
Hmmm, not sure. When I copy and paste that code into a standard Drupal 6 site Full HTML page, it works--I see a media player of some sort.
Perhaps your Full HTML Input Format has a filter turned on? Can you check the configuration settings for that Input Format? They are in admin/settings/filters meaning Admin -- Settings -- Input formats
