Experimental project

This is a sandbox project, which contains experimental code for developer use only.

This module was created to solve a problem that seems to have a lot of issues in Drupal - creating a good user experience for content creators who want to embed Vimeo or Youtube videos. This module expects the content creator to paste a plaintext link to their Youtube or Vimeo video. This module adds a display format to go out and grab a screenshot of the video, pass it through Imagecache_actions to add a play button watermark, and make it linkable to a colorbox that holds the video.

To the end user, they just paste the url to the video they want to display and hit save. With some minor customization this module handles the rest.

This module is no longer supported. Please refer to the Youtube module instead.
