  I have had some problems embedding a video into my blog. I tried the embed code but it came up “//” after I had put the code into the HTML and tried to publish the article. Below is the embed code and as you can see, I am using the Oxygen theme. Is there any particular reason why it does not work?

  <script type="text/javascript">vmmaplayer={videoUrl:'http://flvpd.vtm.be/videocms/stadion/2013/02/10/201302092322139010032016057005056B763420000006152B00000D0F008459.mp4',width:400,height:225,title:'Video: Lokeren – Zulte Waregem 09/02/2013',imageUrl:'http://static1.stadion.vtm.be/sites/stadion.vtm.be/files/styles/vmmaplayer_big/public/videocms/image/2013/02/d5eef4c918c5572c90c43573e74e617b.jpg',url:'http://stadion.vtm.be/artikel/lokeren-zulte-waregem-09022013',adZone:'/4064/4064.vtm/stadion/home'};</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://stadion.vtm.be/vmmaplayer/embed.js"></script>

  Yes, it’s Javacript http://en.support.wordpress.com/code/
  See here for the video embeds that are supported and the instructions for embedding them http://en.support.wordpress.com/videos/

  Looks like I won’t be able to put the video on the website then. Thanks for your help.
