If you look at the module with no editor instead of TinyMCE you will see the following code.

<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/16775986?title=0&byline=0&portrait=0" width="310" height="174" frameborder="0"></iframe>

Showing the devs have used a simple iframe to display this video. Good to save bandwidth and to help cut down on the size of the download but bad in other ways. If I were you I would simply create a new module in position sl1-r and use the allvideos plugin.

Forget the toggle editor button, go to global settings and select no editor.

You can also adjust the settings of TinyMCE and if done correctly it will show.

However, you are better off creating a new module in the same position and using the allvideos plugin.

If you cannot work out how to setup your editor then drop me your admin logon details via PM and I will set it up for you.

Oh, you really do not want to stay in Hemel for long;)

If you use the allvideos module then updating the video should only take a few seconds. I do it all the time on my site. (http://www.windsurf.me.uk). I simply have a custom html module and just edit the video code each time. With youtube videos you just have to paste in the 10 digit video code.

So for http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jOEbihnsZwI&feature=player_embedded

you would just paste in the jOEbihnsZwI

So as an example of the code in my mod_avreloaded module on the top right I have in the media code box – {youtube width=”365″ height=”286″ wmode=”transparent”}jOEbihnsZwI{/youtube}

And to change it I just change the 10 digit code ore press the special button that does all the work for me.

mod_avreloaded can be downloaded free from here – http://allvideos.fritz-elfert.de/
