Hi there,

Was there a fix to this problem......as I'm in real need to get this working on my site asap & both the TAG method, and the option to add a video via 'Use Online Video Service' is not working for me either!?

Please see this page where I have both setup BUT NOT SHOWING?

Thanks,
Chris H.

By using the full URL - www.facebook.com/vince.hogan.56/videos/10213454965423351/ I was able to see the video, but since the video is shot on portrait and AllVideos (the responsive template) embeds only 16/9 videos you might need to use the Classic template instead.

Hi there,

I tried the 'responsive template' & the 'framed' template options....but neither seem to work with the video above or with this other video which I believe is 16/9 = www.facebook.com/www.ourdogs.co.uk/videos/10155378695439001/

Can you send me the exact shortcode you are using?
Or a screenshot from K2?

Hi there - SO I got it working basically had to add the {facebook}code into the EMBED TAB then after saving it transfers into the 'Use Online Video Service' TAB with the Divx player selected!

My next question though; is it possibly to add multiple videos to any type of media/video source ie like the image galleries??

Unfortunately a playlist or gallery functionality is not available.
You can build a custom one if you are using K2 by overriding the custom template or better yet you create a nice K2 module.

I just want to add a point which may be relevant to others with this problem... it stumped me at first, but when changed the K2 Media 'Use online video service' for Facebook works correctly.

...Remember to set the video you're trying to add to 'public' in Facebook.
