Usage

To embed flash files into your posts, please insert the URL into following code: [flash URL VALUES]. URL is the full address with heading http://. Possible VALUES are listed beneath.

If you want to embed movies from YouTube, Google Video, etc., simply post the full address of the item's site.
Example: [flash http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SOME_CHARACTERS or [flash http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=SOME_NUMBERS.
Width and height are set to the respective settings of the supported hoster automatically.
You don't need to cut sth. out of an address or HTML code!

flv/mp4 support just use [flash URL VALUES], the flv/mp4 file is detected automatically. (You have to buy a license to use that player commercially.)

You can also embed media ([flash medium=ID VALUES]) and playlists ([flash playlist=ID VALUES]) from the media manager. (Attention! Each flashvar overwrites his counterpart in following order: admin panel settings < media & playlist settings < flash tag settings.)

!!! The following documentation of possible values is eased heavily by the admin panel popup (since v1.5) !!!

VALUES can be one or more of these:

• If you want to override the default values for width and hight, use the following code: w=WIDTH h=HEIGHT. WIDTH and HEIGHT are in pixels as number-only without unit.

• If you want to override the default value for the class, use the following code: class=CLASS. CLASS is the class to be used. If you don't specify a class, the default class "embedflash" will be taken.

• To specify the style for the <object> without defining a class, use the following code: style={STYLE}. STYLE must be valid CSS code. Please ensure that you put it into {} brackets!

• To manage gallerys, use the following code: [flash FIRSTMOVIEURL title=FIRSTMOVIETITLE gallery={MOVIE1URL MOVIE1TITLE,MOVIE2URL MOVIE2TITLE,}.

• You can also display a link to the file with a specified text: extern={TEXT|LINK} or extern={TEXT}. TEXT is the text to show as link, LINK will be the target. If no LINK is given, it defaults to URL. Please ensure that you put it into {} brackets!
  Example #1: extern={Go to YouTube} will output: <a href="URL" title="Go to YouTube">Go to YouTube</a>.
  Example #2: extern={Visit the author's website|http://domain.com/?site=home} will output: <a href="http://domain.com/?site=home" title="Visit the author's website">Visit the author's website</a>
  If you are embedding a video from a hoster supported by this plugin, you can add a "Watch it at ..." link by adding extern=1 instead.

• If you want to specify additional parameters to the <object> tag, use the following code: o={PARAMETERS}. PARAMETERS can be one ore mutiple valid parameters for the <object> tag except 'data', 'width', 'height', 'class' and 'style'. Please ensure that you put it into {} brackets!
  Example: o={tabindex="2" name="flashmovie"} will be outputted as: <object ... tabindex="2" name="flashmovie" ... />

• If you want to specify additional <param> tags, use the following code: p={NAME-1;VALUE-1|NAME-2;VALUE-2|...|NAME-N;VALUE-N}. Both NAME and VALUE have to be specified. You can add quite infinite <param> tags by seperating the different couples with the "|" character. Please ensure that you put it into {} bracktes!
  Example: p={menu;false|quality;high} will be outputted as: <param name="menu" value="false" /><param name="quality" value="high" />

• If loading preview images from YouTube and GameVideos has been disabled by default, you can still use it by adding preview=force. The alt attribute of the image tag is set to "preview image". You can set the width and height by pw= and ph=.

• To easily overwrite the default mode of embedding your flash content, you can specify mode. Examples: mode=0 will use the object tag, mode=1 refers to SWFObject.
