Here's the code:

<embed wmode="transparent" allowscriptaccess="always" allowscriptaccess="always" allowscriptaccess="always" style='display:block' src='http://media.mtvnservices.com/mgid:arc:video:southparkstudios.com:9afcec46-293f-492d-8b8f-08a29aa7ba15' width='500' height='281' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' wmode='window' allowFullscreen='true' flashvars='autoPlay=false' allowscriptaccess='always' allownetworking='all' bgcolor='#000000'></embed>

Fuck me sideways, this one's annoying. Embed within this comment doesn't work, but a regular submission doesn't throw any exceptions and the player is loaded properly, so I'd say give this code a shot.

For a different South Park clip, just replace "9afcec46-293f-492d-8b8f-08a29aa7ba15" with the respective ID. In case of your second clip, that ID is "4c756450-99e2-469c-b97a-e7ddceff54aa".

Code for second embed:

<embed wmode="transparent" allowscriptaccess="always" allowscriptaccess="always" allowscriptaccess="always" style='display:block' src='http://media.mtvnservices.com/mgid:arc:video:southparkstudios.com:4c756450-99e2-469c-b97a-e7ddceff54aa' width='500' height='281' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' wmode='window' allowFullscreen='true' flashvars='autoPlay=false' allowscriptaccess='always' allownetworking='all' bgcolor='#000000'></embed>


Tutorial: Either pick this code as a template and replace the ID or fetch a regular embed code for another MTVNServices video, for example TDS, and simply replace the video url with that of the South Park video, but only after you ran the original code through VideoSifts own submission system.

Random DailyShow embed, after I ran it through the system:

<embed wmode="transparent" allowscriptaccess="always" style='display:block' src='http://media.mtvnservices.com/mgid:cms:item:comedycentral.com:419809' width='500' height='281' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' wmode='window' allowFullscreen='true' flashvars='autoPlay=false' allowscriptaccess='always' allownetworking='all' bgcolor='#000000'></embed>

Replace the part in bold font with the respective South Park code, then run it again.

Well, it doesn't work in here, so that's something new.


How did you get that code? However, http://media.mtvnservices.com/mgid:arc:video:southparkstudios.com:a6f651e6-ed00-11e0-aca6-0026b9414f30 is the wrong video clip.

Well, this seems to work, sort of. But it's as wonky as it gets, if you ask me.

If you want to embed other Team Coco videos, just replace the "41587" with the respective ID of your clip. Twice. >> ^ant:

Thanks. I will try that later. We need an automated iframe converter for VS.

Oh hey Rommel...I would really love to be able to embed videos from webarchive.org (the wayback machine)
There are hundreds of great public domain and art, ephemeral videos there. They have never worked in the past and i suspect there's simple tweaking to code involved.....have tried and failed-

It's not that hard-if you stare at enough embed codes you start to recognize the patterns and replacing the lines of code is pretty simple-dimple.....Just use your cut-and-paste fingers!!!

@dag and @lucky760 should add this host for future versions.

That's the result of 30 minutes of experiments, but it seems to work. Makeshift code at its best.

I picked this video at random. For any other clip, you'd have to replace the parts I marked in bold. The actual video file is linked twice (troubleshooting_512kb.mp4) and so is the respective folder (http://archive.org/download/HampshireLinuxUserGroupTroubleshootingTools/). Those are the only four entries that need to be changed, as far as I can see.

So, who volunteers to give it a shot?

Edit: bugger, forgot to replace those pesky code characters.

Edit #2: Argh, I hate that bloody code. Now I removed the html tags.

Edit #3: Apparently, those bold tags are not welcome this time around. They make copy-paste much more difficult, so I left them out.
