How to embed video in Views slideshow ddblock (fixed)

I am using views_slideshow_ddblock version 2.x.dev. Then I installed emfield 6.x-1.24, enabled the embedded media field and embedded video field in Modules, set permissions. But now I don't know what to do.

The url is http://cch.diosav.org . Am trying to add three videos similar to the slideshow at http://themes.myalbums.biz/content/embedded-content-example.

Thanks again.

I've added a field to the content type called field_ddblock_if_video_url. I also added Content: field_ddblock_if_video_url to the Views Fields. When I create the node, I am able to enter the Embedded Video URL and the video displays in the node. How do I get the video to display in the slideshow. I'm guessing I need to add a preprocess function to the template.php? But this is where my skills stop. If you could assist that would be great.

No problem.

I tried your suggestion.
I mapped the embedded media field (Embedded video url - video_video) to the slide_image (target).
No embedded media field display in the slide. It only removed the images in other slides.

Thanks for your help.

Thanks for quick response. I tried the following but no display of video in the slideshow block.

1. Added to content type (ddblock image field example item):
field (field_ddblock_if_embedded_video),
type (Embedded video),
provider (YouTube)

2.Added to View ddblock_if_example_slideshows:
field (Content: Video),
format (Full Size Video)

3. Added a video embed code to a node. deleted the image.

4. In ddblock_if_example_slideshows View:
selected style: settings
added a target (slide_video) with the source (Content:Video (field_ddblock_if_embedded_video)
saved the view changes

Something is not set properly in the View. but I cant figure out the problem.

Thanks again

I got it working. I am using a custom template upright 50l and I had overridden some settings for upright50 view. so I reset to default setting and reapplied my settings in upright50. The video displays now.

How do I make the video custom thumbnail display in the pager_image?

Thanks again.

Everything is working great in Firefox but not in IE8. For some reason the template_size css is not being applied in IE8. I have a workaround for now, I added the template_size css code to views-slideshow-ddblock-cycle-vsd-highlight-50l-B.css.

I have another slideshow with just the images (no the embedded video) same exact setup that displays perfectly in Firefox and IE8.

CSS optimization solved the IE issue. I sincerely thank you for your help. Once my sites are complete, I will add them the sites using ddblock page.
