turning off the search bar on embeded youtube videos

I'm workshopping this...
the internets tell me

when did they start adding those? well in the html code i would assume you'd add that bit directly following the video ID


ex:

...param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/UxTmgUx2TOE&hl=en&fs=1&showsearch=0" type="application/x-shockwav...

hmmm...just added that to the bottom one, to no effect. I've tried it with and without param /param and still there's that durn bar.

they just started it this week

on the bright side, now this whole thread looks funky, at least at this computer.

what do you mean?
is there something other than the 2 hope-to-be before and after videos?

huh. i'm home (FF on mac) now, and it looks normal. at work (IE on PC), the borders between posts were gone and i think also the alternating background colors. only on this thread.

did you try removing everything before embed and after /embed? i haveta remove that when adding autoplay to the code.

ah ha! it worked! take that YouTube search bar. that's really annoying, glad ya brought this thread up though cause a lot of my job has to do with client's youtube videos. now i know how to get rid of what will soon to be "what the hell is that why is that there???" complaints from MSG.

I just removed that code when I quoted you and it looks the same to me in FF3.0.4 / Mac OSX 10.5.5.

Looks the same in Safari too.

Same in Opera too.

Ha! I haven't used Explorer in so long, it's not even Flash enabled!

My copy of Camino didn't support flash either.

Looks the same in Flock.

My 2000-2002 copy of Netscape 7.0 also doesn't support Flash.

YouTube seems to be updating. Now the search bar is appearing only when you mouse over it, and they've added custom options as below (size, color border) O where will it land...

I tried ditching the stuff before embed, and it didn't work (results above)

Except this video I put here today with fugly custom options doesn't have the Search bar, even after you play it.

It's still there for me (FF/OSX).

did you ditch the /object bit after /embed as well? when you do all that and then submit, it reorganizes the code. im running FF 3.0.4 here and use the same at work, always works fine for me.

ahh ha - edited above again, and got rid of the bar (2nd one is edited, 1st is original)
THX rtraindwellwer!

I'm OSX FF too Carn, and I'm getting pulldown with mouse on 1st instance, nothing on second, and nothing on the other video I embedded, with the red border.

....object width="425" height="344"....embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/xbianiY84DM&hl=en&fs=1&showsearch=0"; type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"...../param.....

So I just reloaded the page and am seeing the search bar you were talking about in the first video for the first time. This whole time I thought you were talking about the progress bar under the video. I've never seen that search bar before.

no prob! glad i could help.
