itemtype="http://schema.org/VideoObject">
Video: <span itemprop="name">Interview with the Foo
Fighters</span itemprop="name">
<meta itemprop="duration" content="t1m33s" ></meta itemprop="duration" content="t1m33s" >
<meta itemprop="thumbnail"< p=""></meta itemprop="thumbnail"<>
content="foo-fighters-interview-thumb.jpg" />
<param ...></param ...>
<embed type="application x-shockwave-flash" ...=""></embed type="application>
<span itemprop="description">Catch this exclusive interview</span itemprop="description">
with Dave Grohl and the Food Fighters about their new album,
Rope.

Tumbnail des not appear
<meta itemprop="thumbnail" content="foo-fighters-interview-thumb.jpg" ></meta itemprop="thumbnail" content="foo-fighters-interview-thumb.jpg" >

But no only does not appear foto on page as there is no button to start video, just a blank page is seen as result of the code.

Typically the meta tagged elements won't display...but, that line in your code is NOT the one you want to show on the page anyway. It's just for the search engines to use to display in the search results.
Your embedded object should show the thumbnail and allow you to play it. Go very carefully through the <embed> code and look for every instance where a file is referred to: the swf file (there should be TWO instances of this).
It's also possible that your player needs to run some javascript as well and that's either not working or not included.

Video & Graph That Lazy Loads
Hi, Product pages on our site have a couple of elements that are lazy loaded / loaded after user action. Apart from images which is a widely discussed topic in lazy loading, in our case Videos & Price Graphs are lazy loaded. For videos we do something that Amit Agarwal recommended here: http://labnol.org/internet/light-youtube-embeds/27941/ - We load a thumbnail and a play button over it. When a user clicks that play button, the video embedd form Youtube would load. However we are not sure if Google gets that and since the whole thing is under a H3 tag, will we a) loose out benefit of putting a relevant video there b) send any negative signals for only loading a image thumbnail under an h3 tag? We also have price graph, that lazy loads and is not seen when you see a cached version of our page on Google. Are we losing credit (in Google's eyes) for that content on our page? Sample page which has both price history graph & video http://pricebaba.com/mobile/apple-iphone-6s-16gb Appreciate your help! Thanks

John Mueller says don't use Schema as its not working yet but I get markup conflicts using Google Mark-up
I watched recently John Mueller's Google Webmaster Hangout [DEC 5th]. In hit he mentions to a member not to use Schema.org as it's not working quite yet but to use Google's own mark-up tool 'Structured Data Markup Helper'. Fine this I have done and one of the tags I've used is 'AUTHOR'. However if you use Google's Structured Data Testing Tool in GWMT you get an error saying the following Error: Page contains property "author" which is not part of the schema. Yet this is the tag generated by their own tool. Has anyone experienced this before? and if so what action did you take to rectify it and make it work. As it stands I'm considering just removing this tag altogether. Thanks David cqbsdbunpicv8s76dlddd1e8u4g

Where is Schema, Twitter cards and OpenGraph code need?
Hello, I've adding OpenGraph, Twitter cards and Google's Schema code to my website to help these services pick the correct information about my website. I'm doing this as per the Moz SEO cheatsheet. Does these rich snippets need to be on the index page only, or should they appear on every page?

Does adding a YouTube video to a page decrease site speed?
If you embed a YouTube video on your page, does Google count that as part of their site speed calculation. Since it is in a iFrame, I would think that it is not counted.

How do I create a Video Sitemap for Youtube Embedded Videos?
I've been seeing a lot of people recommend creating a video sitemap or Media RSS feed (mRSS) and submit to Google. We have videos hosted on Brightcove and most on YouTube. Brightcove can generate the sitemap for us. But does anyone know how to generate a YouTube Video Sitemap for those videos embedded on our pages? Note: I realize I could manually assemble the video sitemap, however manually assembling the sitemap is probably not an option for us due to the volume of videos we've published.
