  How can I embed the JW Player to my wordpress.com post page?

  Here is the original embedded code:

  <iframe width=”600″ height=”338″ src=”http://www.npr.org/templates/event/embeddedVideo.php?storyId=185510193&mediaId=185755347″ frameborder=”0″ scrolling=”no”></iframe>

  Hi there!

  On WordPress.com, there are certain types of code that are not allowed to be used in posts or pages – including iframe code – due to security concerns. Here’s more information on the types of code allowed on WordPress.com:

  I hope that clarifies things! Let me know if you have any questions.

  There’s got to be a way to modify the code so that it is compatible for wordpress.com (not org). I’ve been able to modify codes for mixcloud, juno, etc which are not compatible and feel there is a way to do this. Here is the original embed code that I want to modify for wordpress.com functionality.

  <iframe width=”600″ height=”338″ src=”http://www.npr.org/templates/event/embeddedVideo.php?storyId=185510193&mediaId=185755347″ frameborder=”0″ scrolling=”no”></iframe>

  Unfortunately, we are unable to provide custom development support in embedding non-supported media formats on WordPress.com.

  We currently support embedding videos from YouTube, Vimeo, Hulu, Flickr, DailyMotion, Viddler, Blip.tv, TED Talks, Educreations, and Videolog. Here’s more information on our current video embedding support:

  If you feel we should add support for NPR videos, please add the suggestion to our Ideas forum so it can be considered for future updates:

  I hope that clarifies things! Let me know if I can help with anything else.
