How to Embed an Externally Hosted Video in WordPress

On February 16, 2010, in Video, by Kenton Ross

YouTube VideoThis post uses a plug-in called Video Viper Quicktags which makes it fast and easy to embed video from various video sharing sites like YouTube, Vimeo, Google Video, etc. If you want the rest of the world to see the video on your site, this is the right plug-in. 

For original video material that you want to host yourself, perhaps you want to lose the YouTube watermark or keep your content private (for training, etc.) For this, you can use the FV Flowplayer plugin. It is highly configurable and has some great options like embedding html code after the video. See More Cool Things About FlowPlayer in my WordPress Tutorials section
