EmbedVideo Version 1.0 Released

I'm pleased to announce the 1.0 release of the EmbedVideo extension for Mediawiki.

EmbedVideo is a highly capable and configurable extension for embedding flash video content from hosting sites such as YouTube. The extension is being developed on Github and is available for download from there as well. Information is also available on the extension page at mediawiki.org.

Major new features include:
  • Completely rewritten code base to follow current MediaWiki best practices
  • i18n internationalization support
  • Support for new hosting services
  • Backwards-compatibility support for EmbedVideoPlus
  • Thumbnailing, floating alignment, and attached descriptions
  • Support for custom embedding clauses
  • Support for per-service default width and width/height ratios
Contributions and patches, especially those that add support for new video hosting services, will be much appreciated.
