Question

I used opengraph tag to embed a flash player on Facebook news feed, it worked well before April 2014. I don't know why now it is not working any more. The embed tag as sample below:

<meta property="og:site_name" content="Sitename" />
<meta property="og:title" content="Title" />
<meta property="og:description" content="Description" />
<meta property="og:type" content="video" />
<meta property="og:url" content="url" />
<meta property="og:image" content="image url" />
<meta property="og:video" content="flash.swf player url" />
<meta property="og:video:height" content="246" />
<meta property="og:video:width" content="398" />
<meta property="og:video:type" content="application/x-shockwave-flash" />

I have been searching on Google a lot but still cannot find the result. Does FB changes something?

Was it helpful?

Solution

It is a Bug Status: Assigned please check : https://developers.facebook.com/bugs/1503212169899736/

You can work around this by hosting your swf player on Amazon S3 servers . it works for me .

I have the same problem since 21 APR , i tried everything

Try the Debug tool : https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object?q= and check if your site enabled -- Video embedding on Facebook enabled --
