Post by: Lord Anubis on November 13, 2007, 05:46:39 PM
This is a very nifty script to add a "Video Bar" to your site... You can add a horizontal

Yes a script block...

And this is also a good thing to add if you have a channel on YouTube or you want videos related to your site ;)

You can see how I set mine up HERE (http://nextsite.org/forum/index.php?page=33)

correct me if i'm wrong, but doesnt that use your hosts bandwidth
(thus your bandwidth alotment for the month)

i dont have unlimited bandwidth

i dont think so...think of an image, if someone is using an image from your website on theirs who's bandwidth is getting used? It is definitely not theirs, so why would you expect videos from youtube to be using your bandwidth?

lol

It would most likely be using youTube's bandwidth

actually if there is an image on your site it is their bandwidth being used

and if they stream video from their site it is theirs aswell

but i was just wondering if it links back to YT or does it stream from the site?

cool i guess i am wrong

It streams from YouTube. You don't install the video. All you do is embed the source code into the topic, block and it is essentially the same as using an iFrame.

It is a direct script from Google, and I don't see that option, unless you add different "YouTube Channels:" and use a comma separated list

Have you tried this?
