This is a tutorial page about how to insert a Flash movie into DevalVR: interactivevideo_tutorial.html

To embed a Youtube video, you must find the url of the Flash video in SRC parameter of "Embed" code.

For example, for this video, you can see this embed code:

<object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Fgfg8X0lHGU"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Fgfg8X0lHGU" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>

In "src" parameter you can see "http://www.youtube.com/v/Fgfg8X0lHGU ". This is the url to the Flash movie, copy this url in FILE instruction of DevalVR script.

DevalVR uses the latest 3 characters of the url to know the file type (file extension), you can create a invented parameter to finish the url with appropriate extension, in this case "swf". For example, adding "&exten=swf" at the end:

(pano) { TYPE=MOV; FILE=gransuite.mov; NODO=-151.9,-10.76,-30.64,-178.9,-11.55,-83,-150.1,-43,-30.45,-181.24,-44.7,-84.25, 0,0,1, tv; } (tv) { TYPE=IMAGE; FILE="http://www.youtube.com/v/MWnBZ3vRNUk&autoplay=1&exten=swf"; SIZE=324,262; REFRESHRATE=12; BGCOLOR=#000000; }

You can include "&autoplay=1" in the url, if you want to start the videoautomatically.

Youtube videos have a size of 320 x 262 pixels, you must include SIZE instruction in the object image. And a REFRESHRATE of 12 or 15 is appropriate for a Youtube video.

You can use BGCOLOR instruction to adapt the Flash background color to your content.
