Bug Description

KARL doesn’t handle embeding YouTube or Brightcove videos. Below are a few examples of code that should work, but somehow gets mangled by TinyMCE or something else along the way.

BRIGHTCOVE

Balazs, I'm out this week. Can you take a look at the layers in the onion (TinyMCE cleanup, server-side cleanup), diagnose where it is happening, and work on a fix?

Hi All,

I could paste the links in this report, and it seems to work for me. I tried to paste with the HTML editor of kupu, and also from other pages (only with YouTube), worked for me in all these cases.

My questions are the following:

- can you please confirm that it still fails to work?

- How do you exactly embed the video? Please describe the process briefly.

- How does it exactly fail? (They did not get mangled for me, but there may be some other problem.)

The fix seems to solve a problem.

There is a separate issue: the BrightCove video I pasted for testing, displays wider than the available content area. At the moment, I don't know how to address this problem, - and if it should be addressed at all.

Hi Balazs. Could you put in a comment that captures our conversation about Eolas patents, the media button, and the Brightcove id issue? Pasting text from our email conversation is ok by me.

Do you want to keep this task? If you're booked, we can defer it and let Derek/Mike pick it up.
