    Oh, its not at all that hard. I’ve got dozens on my site and I haven’t messed with any of that stuff. The main rule is this:

    You must disable the rich text editor (under Admin>Options>Writing) and log out and back in.

    Now, if you just copy and paste the code that google video gives you into your post it will work perfectly.

    If you want, in the code you can resize the videos. Furthermore, if you want to show your own .flv videos (encoded with the free Riva encoder) then you can download google’s videoplayer.swf or use the YouTube one from here (http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?item=Flash_Video_Player) and then all you have to do is host your video file someplace, and then update the links in your html of your post and you are good to go. Send me an email if yor still need help of want to see what these look like in action. thadjudkins (0) hotmail . com

    Hi,
    I can get Google videos to show up in my posts, but they don’t show up on the front page of my blog when the post has been published. I have to click the link to the post and then the video shows up on the post page.

    Is there anyway to make them show up there as well as on the page that has the actual post?

    Thanks!

    Probably your index.php template file is using the_excerpt tag instead of the_content.
    Good reading here:

    http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/the_content

    That was it! Thanks so much for the quick and effective reply. Just replaced the_excerpt with the_content and everything is working as I need it to now.
