  I am looking to have a section of folders with short video clips inside (like a gallery module) any suggestions on the best module to use for this?

  I am surprised you ask this question, because you already use crpCalendar. The same author wrote a module called crpVideo...

  Also the Content module can play youtube and vimeo clips.

  Hi supa,
  mmhh, to be honest I'm not sure what Content or crpVideo does to get by the safehtml stuff. I think a MultiHook needle would be the easiest to get it in (maybe there is already something like that ).

  Easy Erik, SafeHTML doesn't touch template code, only input code, both modules have the blocked code in the template, thereby bypassing the filter. All Content actually uses is the id code that's in the URL for YouTube.

  So are we saying this should be fairly easy to add to the News module's templates? Am I getting a bit giddy here? Cause this would be a great add to the News module. This an other inclusions are reasons why users might look at another module for other content.
  
  Halbrook is the statement you made for sure factual?

  All I said was how Content handles it, and I presume that's also how crpVideo handles it. I said nothing about how to implement it in news.

  Then it is still the easiest to make a MultiHook needle that you can just insert in the article that converts a movie URL to the code needed for display. I have made the Vimeo plugin for Content (heavily copied from the youtube plugin of course), so I already know a bit on the movie codes.
  
  But a question to you supa: do you have the videos local or on youtube/vimeo?

  espaan,
  I have some local flash video as well that I have never been able to use on my site. It compresses better than avi/wmv etc., so truthfully I would love to use it. I also have Youtube videos as well.
  
  thanks,
  
  supa
