Embed Your Website Video

[G-Person]

Hello folks, I am trying to learn how you can Embed Your Website Video on Facebook, but
everytime I search I get the reverse "How to embed a Facebook video on your website"

Anyone knows where to look for what I want? :  " Embed Your Website Video on Facebook "

( Using Dreamweaver CS6 )

[Jon Fritz]

Do a search for "Add custom code to facebook page"

I can't open any of them from the office, our network filter is a bit overzealous when it comes to the word "facebook" appearing in a link, but the info should be in the first couple results, likely using iframes.

Why do I want to modify any Facebook page?

We talking about my own webpage on my server.

Because you said in your original post that you are trying to figure out how to "embed your website video on Facebook".

I'm not sure if English is your first language, we have a lot of non-English speakers here, but the way that's written would mean you have a video on your website and are trying to add it into your Facebook page.

That may be why you're having a difficult time finding information on what you want.

Here are a few questions that will help clear up the confusion...

Where is your video now?
Where do you want it to display?

Where is your video now?   Like I already said, on my sever.

Where do you want it to display?   Facebook wall.

Now is that clear ?

That's is correct, what you don't understand?

That's correct, so you must add some code before you can link to Facebook.

I don't know any better English than that, which in fact is perfect English.

It's unclear what you want now as you're the one who mentioned Facebook in your original post.

If you want to just add video to your personal web page (non-Facebook) use the HTML5 <video> tag.

<video controls poster="your_poster_image.jpg">

<!--replace this sample with your MP4 video file-->

<source src="http://techslides.com/demos/sample-videos/small.mp4" type="video/mp4">

</video>

I think this is very clear "Embed Your Website Video on Facebook"

The same way you take a link from youtube video and post it on Facebook.

Nothing wrong with English, more clear than that, cant not be.

Since this is not a Dreamweaver question, I will defer to Facebook's Help Center for the answer.  See link below.

Good luck with your project!

This is a dream weaver question because unless they have change it, I saw it before and you had

to add some kind of IFRAME Code, that's what I saw once, that's why I put the question here.

I just did a test giving Facebook the address of a gif file on my webpage, and shows up ok,

I will upload a video and try again.

But years ago to do what you do with YouTube, I read you had to have a few lines of code

so Facebook could display the video, looks like they have change that ( Facebook )

Thanks Nancy......

Ok for those of you that said that my English is not that good.

You folks should go here: Webmasters - Sharing - Documentation - Facebook for Developers

I knew what I was talking about, but naturally, I do have very good brain cells.
