Hi Chris, What I 'm really trying to do is add video to a page (placeholder) so that it can be (a) embedded within the page content and (b) appear in content rollup views. The first can be achieved in a variety of ways but getting the multimedia to rollup via a list view or CQWP web part is proving quite tricky. I'm wondering if adding a custom column to my Page content type which includes the <embed> HTML could be added to the list view and rendered? I've been avidly reading the pathtosharepoint blogs about calculated HTML columns to see if I can achieve this. http://pathtosharepoint.wordpress.com/2008/09/01/using-calculated-columns-to-write-html/ But my real dilemma is finding a solution that your average end user can employ. Maybe I need a custom column? Regards,

Maybe it's just me (surprise, surprise) but for some reason any embed or object tags seem to be getting striped from my CEWPs. I was hoping there might be a relatively simple (and even supported!) method for allowing tags by editing the right system file. Will give the FLVPlayer a whirl.
