  Can I embed video from a site, that’s not on the oEmbed whitelist?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  The video embeds that WordPress.com supports for all of our blogs – no upgrade required. http://en.support.wordpress.com/videos/

  Video shortcodes > http://en.support.wordpress.com/shortcodes/#video

  For the videopress upgrade see here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/videopress/

  For a Flash workaround see here > http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2010/07/22/gigya-shortcode-3-widgets/

  Thanks @timethief for the prompt reply. I had checked out the first three suggestions, but thanks for flagging them again.

  I wasn’t sure if a videopress upgrade would allow me to embed the <iframe> code, as I figured it would only upload video (I create) directly into my blog. As opposed to video created on an external site.

  I will definitely try to latter version asap.
