I love this feature! So simple for my users to use, and great since we don't have to host or convert video. But I now have a problem. I also want to be able to paste a link from Google Video in Apps. This service is different from Google Video. Read more about it here:

Google Video in Apps works like most other services, I get these links to share the video:

Normal URL: http://video.google.com/a/primary-domain-name/#/Play/contentId=98712165d507f6a5

Embed this video: <iframe frameborder="0" style="border:1px solid #AAA; width:640px; height:387px;" src="http://video.google.com/a/primary-domain-name/ife/98712165d507f6a5"></iframe>

Gadget: http://video.google.com/a/primary-domain-name/EmbedGadget?contentId=98712165d507f6a5&width=640&height=387

I'm not a solid coder and not sure how difficult this is to solve with a new codec. Anyone willing to help out? or have any better ideas?
Your help much appreciated!

No luck with the patch. But I did get a Player window (I did not before), the same as for Google Video, but it does not show anything it is black. Google points out that these are different services, though I am not sure what the entails. They do use a different player (I attached a screen grab) so the player source is different.

To see what the source looks like I embed the video link in Google Sites using the same link as for video filter (guessing they use a similar technique). The HTML output on Sites is this:

<embed src="http://video.google.com/a/example.com/swf/98712165d507f6a5" width="480" height="387" style="width:480px;height:387px;" id="VideoPlayback" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" flashvars="fs=true" allowfullscreen="true">

Thanks for helping.
