there is a random problem with embedding video, after you do the embedding, the table that the video is shown in doesn't expand to the video size so the send button isn't active unless you click on the x button, then you can select send....but no one will know to do this, they will just assume that they can't embed videos......but if you follow the process i just explained, and go to embed another video, it works just fine, the table expands to the accomadate the video and the send button is active.....

and now it's not even random, it's consistently doing it

Are you using any external theme?
no, i'm using origin theme....it attaches images just fine, but when adding the embed code is when it is doing it.....

i have it installed on my test server, mowes portable, but that shouldn't cause it, mowes has never caused me problems before....

easiest explanation, the div isn't expanding to encompass the video and the sub div that the player is in is extended to the right, over the send button, rendering the send button useless....

here is a pic of the newsfeed messing up, if you notice, the box that the video is supposed to fit in, is shorter than the video...and the send button is rendered useless.

Tracy which browser ( name+version) did you use? I have been testing in Firefox 15 , but everything works ok there.

Visually this looks like the problem I have with the Disable Rich Media settings, but I want to remove the ability for users to upload the Rich Media in all instances (except the photo gallery plugin).

Shane, we were not able to reproduce the problem reported by Tracy.
>>but I want to remove the ability for users to upload the Rich Media in all instances (except the photo gallery plugin).
You will need to modify .html files ( remove "Video" and "photo" icons) of "Newsfeed" plugin.
