  I would like to embed a UStream video into a draft blog. I captured the video on Vodpod, obtained the shortcode for the embed and put the code into the blog editor. The video didn’t show. I went back to Vodpod, selected the option for a direct embed into the draft from the site; that didn’t work either.

  Help?

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

  What is the exact code you are copying-pasting from VodPod, and where exactly are you copying-pasting it to?

  Here is the shortcode that I have copied from Vodpod and pasted into first the visual and then HTML editors with no success:

  [vodpod id=Video.16055377&w=425&h=350&fv=]

  Could not get the shortcode to work. I was just able to embed the video directly from the UStream “share” button using the old embed code (no iframe). However, despite the fact that the code specifies a width of 720 pixels, the video displays in a smaller size. How can I enlarge the screen display?

  Here is the code:

  [ustream vid=20141863 hid=0 w=720 h=566]
