Re: [twitter-dev] Re: Are embedded videos available through the API?
that's precisely what the #newtwitter site does -- it looks at entities, and then makes decisions as to what to embed from the URLs that the API has extracted. -- Raffi Krikorian Twitter, Application Services http://twitter.com/raffi On Saturday, March 19, 2011 at 4:57 PM, Adam Green wrote: Thanks.

Have you looked at embed.ly? You can use the entities to extract the URLs really easily too http://developer.twitter.com/pages/tweet_entities Tim On Mar 20, 10:44 am, Scott Wilcox sc...@dor.ky wrote: Hi Adam, I've not seen anything API side for it (for public use), I think mostly its built into the NewTwitter UI.

Thanks. I am aware of the entity URLs. I thought the API may have something else, but my guess is that the new UI does what I would do, which is look for URLs from known sources and then display them in the appropriate player.
