[Web4lib] Facebook

[David -]

I initially used YouTube, but found that the visual resolution was so poor that the videos became unusuable.  Did you experience this problem?

We host on our YouTube channel and then use Involver.com's free YouTube Videos application to display our 6 latest embedded YouTube videos on our Facebook Page.

We opted to not host our videos directly on Facebook because YouTube allows us more flexibility to embed our videos on multiple platforms, and to collect stats.

If you host videos on Facebook, do you gave anyway of displaying them
elsewhere like the embed code offered by YouTube?
