XF 2.0 Embed Screencast video

[Andy.N]

How would I add Screencast as enabled video site so I can embed their video on the site directly?

Here is one example video.
http://www.screencast.com/t/VAAWKV6o53Y
Here is their embed code

<!-- copy and paste. Modify height and width if desired. --><iframe class="tscplayer_inline embeddedObject" name="tsc_player" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" type="text/html" style="overflow:hidden;" src="https://www.screencast.com/users/ShaneLovellette/folders/Camtasia Studio 8 Demos/media/a24f2c10-2bf7-4bfb-bbd9-2abaa271ce68/embed" height="720" width="1280" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen></iframe>

Looks like it would need a PHP callback to figure out the correct embed code. If that’s even possible. The embed URL is totally different to the actual URL.

Thanks Chris,
The reason I ask is that we are producing online learning materials using the Camtasia. They have many interactive options like quizzes inside video. To play those quizzes, you need to use their own player. Basically, you can upload the video to Screencast.com and embed the code or you can host the video and player on your XF to playback. It's the option 1 I'm investigating now. If option 2 is easier, I need to find out how to put the player on XF and then upload the video in mp4 format into XFMG. I do not know if their own player will clash with XF player.

Any information would be much appreciated. I would prefer hosting our own video for various reasons.

The second option is likely even more complicated.

For option 1 you could see if this add on supports it: https://xenforo.com/community/resources/s9e-media-sites.5973/

If it doesn’t then maybe Joshy will consider adding it.
