We all know Youtube.com is one of the best way to publish your videos online but there are large number of people who still prefer to share videos using Facebook.com. There may be several reasons sharing videos via Facebook such as privacy issues etc. Youtube officially allows everyone to embed available videos in blogs and websites within few clicks as they provide embed code below (almost) every video which makes easier to embed a Youtube.com video. But what if you want to embed a Facebook video in your blog/website ? as they do not provide embed code officially? Here is how you can embed a Facebook video in your blog or website page.
How to Embed a Facebook Video in Your Blog or Website ?
- Play the Facebook video and click on "Go to Video" that appears at the end of video.
- Now look at the long URL address that appears in URL address bar (where you type website URLs). It will look like
http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=165075460218032
- Above is a page url of a facebook video which helps to embed a video outside facebook i.e. in your blog or website.
- You will have to edit this URL so that it could be use to embed a video successfully. Edit the URL so that i could look like as shown below (note the changes, number stays same).
http://www.facebook.com/v/165075460218032
- Copy below given code and replace BLUE lines with short form of Facebook video URL.
<object width="500" height="314">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.facebook.com/v/123456789012345"></param>
<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param>
<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param>
<embed src="http://www.facebook.com/v/123456789012345" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="500" height="314" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed>
</object>
<param name="movie" value="http://www.facebook.com/v/123456789012345"></param>
<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param>
<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param>
<embed src="http://www.facebook.com/v/123456789012345" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="500" height="314" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed>
</object>
- Now, paste the code in HTML of your blog.
- Thats it !
