    Flash disappear in feedreader

    Hi, I've created a post and inserted a flash movie (from Youtube) in my bodyText with Insert media file in TinyMCE. If a go to my blog, I can see the movie. But, in my reader (google reader) the movie's not there. Is there a way to fix that? Because I want that my reader can view my Youtube movie.

    Thank you for your help.

    I'm sure it should be possible, have a look at the source html of your RSS feed and see what might be wrong there. It could have something to do with having relative links vs. absolute links. Although, YouTube would not use a relative link. Compare the HTML on your page with what is in the RSS feed and see if something is being left out.

    Hi thanks for your reply. It seems ok to me. But neither my reader nor the rss.aspx page show the video. Here's the code (from view source in Firefox) :

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><rss version="2.0" xmlns:content="http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/content/" xmlns:wfw="http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/" xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/"><channel><title>Blogue d'Allô prof</title><link>http://alloprof.test.telequebec.tv</link><generator>Allô prof</generator><description>Pour en savoir plus sur Allô prof</description><language>fr</language><item><title>Test avec des embeded</title><link>http://alloprof.test.telequebec.tv/2010/5/22/test-avec-des-embeded.aspx</link><pubDate>Sat, 22 May 2010 07:30:52 GMT</pubDate><guid>http://alloprof.test.telequebec.tv/2010/5/22/test-avec-des-embeded.aspx</guid><description>

    This is different from the way that (for example) BoingBoing has YouTube video's embedded in their feed, it looks like this:

    <object width="500" height="405">
 <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/V1HSNV9y25A&hl=en_US&fs=1&border=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param>
 <param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param>
 <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/V1HSNV9y25A&hl=en_US&fs=1&border=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="500" height="405"></embed>
</object>

    I have never tried putting YouTube video's in RSS, but this might be a clue for you to see what's wrong. Try embedding your own video by just changing the URL and leaving the rest of the html intact, see what happens then.

    Yeah, I found out that the embed part is missing. But TinyMCE always remove these tags. So now I try to figure how allow <embed>
