gddHere's the patch. One consideration would be how would this impact an existing Feed made with the old method. I haven't tested that yet.

mcunningham CreditAttribution: mcunningham commentedYes, if you have an existing feed, the mapping for the video_url shows as "Missing" after applying this patch. Once you re-add the mapping, everything is fine. The addition to import the Description also works as advertised.

Comment #4
mcunningham CreditAttribution: mcunningham commentedWhen you are setting up a feeds mapping, there are now two different targets relating to Video: Embed url and Embed description. So if you have some metadata relating the video you are importing, you can map it into the description field.

vaccinemedia CreditAttribution: vaccinemedia commentedApplied the patch and both the URL and Description fields are now selectable as targets in feeds :) However, i couldn't manage to import any data from a CSV file. I tried with 3 columns: unique key, url and desc.
Some of the fields had multiple values which I separated using a pipe and added the pipe as a tamper on each of the fields. No joy. So I then removed the desc field so I was only importing urls (still using tamper) and still no joy.
Any ideas?

plopescHello
Patch attached applies and worked fine, so committed in 377e32b.
About comment in #5, I saw there are problems importing multiple values for this field, but this is out of the scope of this issue, so creating a separate issue for that.
Regards.
