I thought the techs were supposed to be doing something about making the
video tag more generally usable for other services?
Jimbojw has one extension that looks interesting,
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:EmbedVideo
Perhaps it would be best to merge functionality of multiple extensions,
extend for a few more services (I can think of Stage6[noted] and Veoh as
other used ones), and create a new one for use (Keeping the old <youtube
/> tag for backwards compatibility.
It may also be advantageous to be able to use local stuff in some cases?
But I can think an advantage EmbedVideo has, it's using a Parser
Function instead of a Parser Tag, so it will work nicely with temples,
so if we used the syntax {{#video:youtube|id}} then someone could create
a {{YouTube|id}} tag which would also do things like allowing for
framing and other stuff.

It'd certainly be nice to have, as there is higher quality vids that could
be linked from stage6.divx.com :)

At the moment, no, there isn't a way to do this. But I would guess
that it wouldn't be too hard to adapt the code, if there was a high
enough demand for it...

videos from stage6.divx.com onto wiki pages as well?
Like we can do with the <youtube> tags??
