Video embedding is easy in WordPress.


YouTube provides code to embed videos into web pages and, until now, I have used it myself. Turns out, I don’t need it. I don’t have to bother figuring out what proportions I need to include to have it play at a custom size that fits my blog format.
Wordpress is so good now, all that’s needed is the URL of the video. As you see, it displays and works just fine. Not a bad little example to watch, either. Next, I’ll have to try a video that isn’t from YouTube.
How about one from Vimeo …

How about one from my server?


Hmmm. My turtle is slow to load and there is no poster frame showing at the beginning, in some web browsers. (It is there in some browsers, but just shows a blank space in others.)
BTW… we came across the big turtle, walking down to the Lake Ontario beach near Kathleen’s place. Summer, 2011
