www.facebook.com/v/348906867935

it will redirect to Facebook link swf:

http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/rsrc.php/v1/y2/r/5l8_EVv_jyW.swf?v=348906867935&ev=0

Here the code to put embed Facebook video (swf) on Html:

<object width="400" height="224" >
 <param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" />
 <param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" />
 <param name="movie" value="http://www.facebook.com/v/xxx" />
 <embed src="http://www.facebook.com/v/xxx" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
   allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="400" height="224">
 </embed>
</object>

Change the section of value and embed link with redirect link swf:

value="http://www.facebook.com/v/xxx" change with Redirect link swf

and also

embed src="http://www.facebook.com/v/xxx" change with Redirect link swf 

so the complete script will be:

<object width="400" height="224" classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/rsrc.php/v1/y2/r/5l8_EVv_jyW.swf?v=348906867935&amp;ev=0" /><embed width="400" height="224" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/rsrc.php/v1/y2/r/5l8_EVv_jyW.swf?v=348906867935&amp;ev=0" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" /></object>

Note:  do not use break line on script,  the embed code will not working as properly.

put on the html/code section on your script. done!



 

 

Sometime you have problem a usual:

Remember to Set Privacy setting  on video to  "Everyone"  because Facebook doesn't allow everyone to see embed video/swf below main privacy such permission for a few friend (list).  unfortunately they not provide more content with not on a login section. yeah Facebook still one F*ed after all!
