Schema for video object
-
I use this schema for my page:
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.
But i cannot make it work on my website:
Tumbnail des not appear
<meta itemprop="thumbnail" content="foo-fighters-interview-thumb.jpg" ></meta itemprop="thumbnail" content="foo-fighters-interview-thumb.jpg" >

<meta itemprop="thumbnail" content="http: www.mywebsite.com="" diretion-of-the-foto.jpg" =""></meta itemprop="thumbnail" content="http:>
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.
Can someone helpme with a own ejemple on is website. Thanks

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.

Schema markup in tag manager for multiple locations not registering in tester tool or search console
Hi Moz community, I had implemented schema markup for companies with multiple branches. We setup an organization with multiple points of contact tag, a Local Business tag for each branch and tags for specific products/ services - all through Google tag manager. I managed to fix the product markup with a small update to the code I found in a Google forum but have been unable to revive our local business markup. The tags of the schema mark up are active but when I run the Google structured data testing tool it doesn't find any schema tags. We are seeing some of the tags show up in search console but not all of them. Has anyone else had this problem and found a solution? Or, do you have any recommendations on how to markup an organization with multiple branches? Should we have one overall organization tag and a separate one for each business or is there another way of presenting each branch? Appreciate any insight!

Microformats & Schema.org query
Just finished watching the Microformats & Schema.org webinar (thanks for a good presentation Richard) and picked up some interesting tips. It did get me thinking about ways I could use them with a couple of ecommerce sites I am working on. At present there are no reviews on the page so cannot add that tag, however the product pages have a facebook like and a tweet option so maybe I could add a tag based around that? Another one I am considering is putting the sizes of the items in one 'available in sizes 12-32' for example as women often ponder if a store will have it in their size. I guess my question is, would these ways of using it be considered too spammy. I note the webinar state using microformats can be useful but there is a risk if they are too spammy etc. Any opinions would be most welcome, Carl

Schema tags - Schema.org
We have rolled out Schema tags for our homepage which has been very beneficial for us. We obviously don't want to go overboard however; can you please clarify, should Schema tags be limited to the homepage location, or implemented through the site? Thanks

Getting a Video Sitemap Indexed
Hi, A client of mine completed a video sitemap to Google Webmaster Tools a couple of months ago. As of yet the videos are still not indexing in Google. All of the videos sit on the one page but have unique URLs in the sitemap. Does anybody know a reason why they are not being indexed? Thanks David

Video Sitemaps - Clarification Needed
I'm trying to make sense of video sitemaps so I can get one up and going but the set up seems unclear. We currently have 7 videos created and up on Youtube. I've got them embedded on the site to a "Video" landing page as well as having these product demo videos embedded on appropriate product detail pages. So when setting up the video sitemap it looks like I'll be using the video:player_loctag as opposed to video:content_locbecause I'm not linking to the file itself but rather a page it's hosted on. Correct? Additionally I'm adding the product detail page url here, not Youtube right? Lastly, do I need to insert an autoplay piece on the videos on the product detail page? I feel that would be an annoying user experience.</video:content_loc></video:player_loc> So part of my sitemap might look like this... <video:player_loc allow_embed="yes" autoplay="ap=[?]">http://website/ProductDetailURL</video:player_loc>

If non-paying customers only get a 2 min snippet of a video, can my video length in sitemap.xml be the full length?
I am working on a website that all of its primary contents are videos. They have an assortment of free videos, but the majority or viewable only with a subscription to the site. If you don't have a subscription, you can see a 2 min video clip of the contents of the video. But all the videos can be anywhere from 10min to 1.5 hours. When I am auto-generating the sitemap.xml, can I put the full length of the videos for paying members in the XML in the video:duration property? Or because publicly only 2 minutes is available (unless you pay for a membership) is that frowned upon?
