Testvideo
Usage
The EmbedVideo parser function expects to be called in any of the following ways:
- {{#ev:service|id}}
- {{#ev:service|id|width}}
- {{#ev:service|id|width|align}}
- {{#ev:service|id|width|align|desc}}
- {{#evp:service|id|desc}}
- {{#evp:service|id|desc|align}}
- {{#evp:service|id|desc|align|width}}
Where:
- service is the name of a video sharing service (See "service name" in the list below)
- id is the id of the video to include
- width (optional) is the width in pixels of the viewing area (height will be determined automatically)
- align (optional) is an alignment (float) attribute. May be "left" or "right".
- desc (optional) is a short description to display beneath the video when it is aligned
For example, to include the famous "evolution of dance" YouTube video, you'd enter:
{{#ev:youtube|dMH0bHeiRNg}}
And if you wanted scaled down to thumbnail size, on the right with a short description, you could use:
{{#ev:youtube|dMH0bHeiRNg|100|right|This is an embedded video!}}
- Note: See the Project Homepage for more examples.

Enabling full-screen mode for youtube
Note: This modification is described by various commenters in the Discussion tab.
1. Open the EmbedVideo.hooks.php file and change the following:
- line 130 from :
" wmode=\"transparent\" width=\"{$width}\" height=\"{$height}\">" .
- to :
" wmode=\"transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" width=\"{$width}\" height=\"{$height}\">" .
- line 158 from :
" wmode=\"transparent\" width=\"{$width}\" height=\"{$height}\"></embed>" .
- to :
" wmode=\"transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" width=\"{$width}\" height=\"{$height}\"></embed>" .
2. Open EmbedVideo.Services.php and add add &fs=1 to both youtube URL values. For example, change http://www.youtube.com/v/$1 to http://www.youtube.com/v/$1&fs=1
To enable HD by default, add &hd=1 after the &fs=1.
Developer notes
The major benefit of using a parser function as the injection mechanism for video clips (as opposed to an extension tag) is that parser functions can utilize template parameters (of the form {{{1}}}).
For example, say you found yourself making a lot of YouTube videos in thumbnail size, right-aligned like an image. You might make a template called Template:Youtube_tn which could contain this:
<div class="thumb tright"> {{#ev:youtube|{{{1}}}|{{{2|100}}}}} </div>
And then call it like this:
{{youtube tn|someYoutubeId}}
