Create Video Playlists from Multiple Services in a Single Player

The site looks clean and simple to use. It offers you two ways to build a playlist - Standard Playlist or Smart Playlist. You can add up to 100 videos to a standard playlist and 50 to a smart playlist.

How does it Works

To build a Standard Playlist,  simply enter the URL or Embed code from the video’s location, for example a YouTube page. In the standard playlist videos are added one at a time.

Smart Playlist lets you build a playlist by searching for keywords or by YouTube Username. The content in smart playlists changes dynamically as new videos are found.

You can select the number of videos you want to show in the playlist, and sort by Relevance, Published Date, View Count or Rating.

During playback, videos automatically transition from one to the next. Viewers can even thumb through the screens below the main window to jump directly to the video of their choice.

Once you’ve created a playlist you have a ready made widget that you can customize and embed on your web pages or your blog too.

Which all services Embedr supports?

Embedr currently supports Atom Films, Blip.TV, College Humor, Dailymotion, Metacafe, MySpace Video, Veoh, Vimeo and YouTube. Accounts at Embedr are free, and give you access to previous playlists that you’ve created.

If you choose not to register for an account, you can still generate playlists. The only issue is you won’t be able to go back and change them if a video in your playlist stops working or is removed from its host.
