What does this do exactly? EmbedVideo does more than just youtube. Does this make it easier? You didn't exactly put alot of documentation... - MaJoR (talk) 00:48, 5 November 2012 (CET)

Ninja'd. Nice work on the documentation. One comment though. Can you add an example of the completed code, start to finish, as it would appear on the page? It would help make it a little clearer to see it all together in code form. - MaJoR (talk) 00:53, 5 November 2012 (CET)
I'll update when I have more free time... For now, div clear must be put only after the latest video. See source code of 1080° Avalanche to see the proper usage with multiple videos - Jhonn (talk)

I went on ahead and updated Xenoblade Chronicles. I was going to ask if you think having tons and tons of thumbnails was an issue. But uh, while doing it, I have a weird problem. At my laptop's resolution (1366x768), it messes up the thumbnail spacing. Does it happen for you? Apparently it's a problem with the template, cause when I used the old embedvideo style, it worked correctly. Check the sandbox. - MaJoR (talk) 09:30, 5 November 2012 (CET)

Figured out. In the sandbox, the alignment issue occur when the video title have more than two lines. Using embedvideo style, everything appears fine because the title are only one line. I can reproduce the issue even with embedvideo style if I link the video URL with the title or if i add garbage on the title to make the first and second videos title bigger than 2 lines... I'll see what I can do regarding this - Jhonn (talk)
Ok, isn't a simple issue. For now, the only workaround I have found is putting a <div style="clear:left"></div> after the video that cause the issue (in case of Xenoblade, the third video)... - Jhonn (talk)
  • Related to the heights, we either need to pad the height to keep 2/3 line entries the same height as 1 line ones, or trim the titles to fit 1 line. I can try to work out some CSS magic to do that. - Kolano (talk) 20:40, 8 November 2012 (CET)
Where you would implement the CSS style? The "final" output is entirely handled by the wiki plugin itself, I'm unsure if we can edit it's style without changing the plugin source. It wouldn't be hard, but I think only Parlane have access to the server-side - Jhonn (talk)
  • The issue with handling <div style="clear:left"></div> may be better handled by a parameter. If an optional 4th <last> parameter is specified the template would output the clear div post the embed. How's that sound? Then the instructions would simplify to, if yours is the last video in a list include the fourth <last> parameter. - Kolano (talk) 20:40, 8 November 2012 (CET)
Really liked this... I'll update the template and documentation to get the 3th parameter soon (already updated), I'm still working in a way to randomize 3 videos and add the others as links, as you suggested in Project:General Discussions - Jhonn (talk)
