Youtube video URL Format [#1934856]

Hi All,

Using this module,the video is being played in the shadowbox only if the youtube url is in the format
http://youtube.com/v/voceyAq-R9E whereas the actual url of the video is http://youtube.com/watch?v=voceyAq-R9E .This is fine for custom url,but I have a view of videos that needs to be played in the shadowbox,so it is pulling the actual url (http://youtube.com/watch?v=voceyAq-R9E) and not
http://youtube.com/v/voceyAq-R9E (which is the required format for playing videos in shadowbox) and even while adding content for url,its taking the actual url and not the required one,So the videos are not being played in the shadow box.Can Please help me if I am missing something somewhere or if there is a way to convert the actual url to required one.I am using Embed media field and Media:youtube modules along with shadowbox.

Thank you.

A new option in auto handle configuration to automatically convert any not compatible youtube link into shadowbox compatible link.

The shadowbox compatible links that are generated are of the form:

http://www.youtube.com/embed/YOUTUBEID

which opens shadowbox using its iframe player and shows the youtube video player filling the whole iframe.

Had the same problem and now it's solved for me, thanks!

However... the other part of it not reported here still persists for me. Namely, video preview images don't display at all when I use shadowbox as formatter.

Just upgraded to shadowbox 7.x-4.0-rc1 and the patch still works. Marking this RTBC in hopes it gets into the actual release so I don't have to remember to patch each upgrade. :-)
