    Sagar,

    What external site? Youtube or something like that? What format is that video in? Is it flash? Link to your own site always helps as well.

    as an update:
    when i paste my link in "Upload Video" and then press Embed it will shows that this is not supported.
    I searched for the same and i found some work around but not usefull.

    so can anyone help me on this?

    Thanks,
    Sagar

    So let me see if i get, You have a flash video on your own hosted site which you want to share with someone else outside of your site?

    Hi i have tried it another way and i am succeeded a bit.

    In that , i am using below URL:
    http://qa.alliancetek.com/demoiqmedia/embed.aspx
    so when i click on "embed" it will show that video.
    but while i click on "Publish Video" it will not show video over there but only above URL.

    Is there anything that i am missing to embed video?

    Thanks,
    Sagar
