Now, on include a VideoEmbedField in views, this one is printed as video (thumb/player) and the video description.

in my case, for example, i don'w want the description.

is that possible to remove it? and maybe print description as additional field?

Hi Kervi,

You can turn off the description in the field configuration - see the bottom of the screenshot

Sorry, I didn't read this all the way.

We probably need to add a new formatter that's like no description. Or separate it, or add some configuration for that. Right now if you want it, i would advise adding a separate field for description and turning it off on the field.

This is now possible in 7.x-2.x-dev

jec006, that is possible? output 2 distinct fields, one for video and another for desc?

or remove description?

i can't see any option for this in views.

Hi Kervi,

Right now its a setting on the video embed field which can be turned off. I'm thinking that maybe we need to do some better views integration. I'm going to move this to 7.x-2.x and do it there. Hopefully thats alright.

For right now, a possible workaround would be actually adding a separate field for description and turning off the description field for video_embed. (this won't work well for multiple value fields though)

Fixed the show/hide description option (at admin/structure/types/manage/%content-type-name%/display) to actually work now, so what you can do is have views display teaser versions of your video posts, and mark the description to be hidden in the teaser display. Patch attached.

Agreed that this works if you are using view modes to display your content type in a view, but if you're using fields, the checkbox to disable/enable description visibility is not available in the views configuration. See below for comparison.
