Is films on demand in the list of sites on your proxy server? I think you need to do more than just put the proxy prefix on the url, you need to have FOD listed as a place to authenticate.

I've tried adding our ezproxy prefix into the embed code, which does result in the correct authentication screen appearing, but then the video doesn't display after institutional credentials are entered. Does anyone know how to make it work? Thanks!

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
