Creating handlers for Video Embed Field
posted on 15 May 12
Video Embed Field is a module that provides a simple interface for placing videos on your Drupal site. It works by simply providing a field of type 'Video Embed' which allows a user to paste in the link to a video from Youtube or Vimeo. The module then provides formatters to show the video and specify settings for it (for example: autoplay, width and height of player, skin color) or as a thumbnail. My hope with the module is to make videos really simple to add to any Drupal site, without a lot of configuration or headache. This blog post is a walkthrough of how to create handlers for other video services that you wish to support.
