Hi,
This module appears to be just what I want to embed a youtube video in a panel/view, but I can't find any readme to tell how to use it. I can display a video using an iframe with

<iframe class="youtube-player" width="608" height="402" frameborder="0" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/kyQKi5-kOUU?rel=0" type="text/html" title="YouTube video player">

I suspect that this field is meant to handle just such a case, but I can't see where/how to enter the information. When I enter

http://www.youtube.com/embed/kyQKi5-kOUU?rel=0

for the default URL, I get back the message "Please enter a valid YouTube URL" upon submitting the content type; I'm confused as to what I need to enter, & where.
Pointers/suggestions?
Thanks very much.

FWIW, using Win 7/Chrome with D7.12 on above.

Hi,

I got the module to take & display the video using the URL:

http://youtu.be/kyQKi5-k0UU

(stripped off some of the items); other than it worked, I really don't know why, though; if somebody has the rules for what it should be, and how/if you can specify other parameters, I'd like to know. Documentation for this is pretty scattered.

Thanks,

Jeff

Thanks Jeff,

The module is supposed to accept any valid YouTube URL format, so you may have identified a bug. I'm glad you found a workaround, but I'm setting this issue back to active so I can 1) confirm, and fix the problem if this is a bug, and 2) create a README.txt for the next person who gets stuck.

Thanks for the feedback!
