Comments on: Does Google My Maps allow video embeds? http://cdevroe.com/notes/mymaps-embed/ by Colin Devroe Thu, 05 Jan 2012 13:48:01 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Colin Devroe http://cdevroe.com/notes/mymaps-embed/#comment-27721 Colin Devroe Mon, 09 Apr 2007 15:10:00 +0000 http://cdevroe.com/notes/mymaps-embed/#comment-27721 Lachlan: I tried something similar, with the same result. I am not sure why they'd block other services without the proper documentation on how to request inclusion. Funny thing is, when I was testing the Google and YouTube HTML embed codes (from the sites, not from the FAQ) wasn't even working properly. Perhaps it is still very buggy so until they work out everything, they may be blocking everyone. Google, respond? You've gotta be reading this. :) Lachlan: I tried something similar, with the same result. I am not sure why they’d block other services without the proper documentation on how to request inclusion.

So it is not the embed code, but what you're embedding Looks like you need to arrange 2), stat. But I'm afraid I can't help you there! I can help you with 1), but not 2)
