<p>It’s the same oEmbed functionality you know and love from your WP 2.9 post editor, now enabled for comments!</p>
<p>Your comments can now embed content from the following sites:</p>
<ul>
<li>YouTube</li>
<li>Blip.tv</li>
<li>Vimeo</li>
<li>DailyMotion</li>
<li>Flickr</li>
<li>Hulu</li>
<li>Viddler</li>
<li>Qik</li>
<li>Revision3</li>
<li>Photobucket</li>
<li>Scribd</li>
<li>WordPress.tv</li>
</ul>
<p>How do you use the plugin?  Simple!  Input <strong>any</strong> URL from one of the listed sites above into a comment.</p>
<p>When the comment is posted and approved, the URL automagically transforms into the embedded content.</p>
<h3>Blacklist feature</h3>
<p>This feature allows you to blacklist websites from being processed by oEmbed.</p>
<p>For example, say I wanted to block YouTube links from being embedded.</p>
<p>Open <code>oembed-config.php</code> in a text editor and add the following line to the end:</p>
<pre><code>$oembed_comments['blacklist'][] = 'youtube.com';
</code></pre>
<p>This will blacklist all links from YouTube.com from being parsed.</p>
<h3>Known issues</h3>
<ul>
<li>Hyperlinking an oEmbeddable link and inputting the same link in plain text will show the oEmbeddable item three times (two times if using anchor text) (not many people will do this)</li>
</ul>

<p>Broken Link Checker for YouTube is a WordPress plugin that will automatically validate<br />
YouTube embeds found in your published posts content using the official API.</p>
<p>It does this by extracting video IDs from each post and querying the YouTube<br />
API to ensure those IDs are still valid. This is a MUST for any video<br />
site that wants to retain their visitors and not annoy them with broken<br />
content.</p>
<p>The truth is videos are uploaded and removed frequently – either by the user<br />
or the site itself for usage violations. If this happens to a video you have<br />
embedded on your site, your visitors are going to see broken content instead<br />
of the video they expected. Don’t let that happen.</p>
<p>Quick Summary:</p>
