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" >

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.

Size of image for article Schema
Hi, I implemented schema markup for an article and all tested fine and I can see it being fired in preview mode of Google Tag Manager. But when I run the URL which has it applied through Google Structured Testing tool it is not appearing. I have now read that the image needs to be a certain size. For AMP articles this appears to be 12oo pixels wide http://www.thesempost.com/google-changes-image-size-requirements-amp-articles/ But what about non-AMP articles? Does it need to be that big too?

Where and how much; Schema best practices.
Couple of schema questions: Should I 'only' mark up the contact page, as this has the most information? What about the header and footer, should I tag everything there also? If I do mark up the header, footer, and contact page, I end up with 3 "LocalBusiness" entries in Google testing tool, is that bad?

Schema.org implementation for physician's office vs physician herself?
Hi, Regarding schema.org microdata, which page(s) should have the microdata? 1) http://schema.org/Physician -- appears to be about the office. Since we have all of the contact/address info in the footer on each page, should we do the same with microdata? I can't seem to find a suggested implementation on schema.org Assuming an office has multiple MDs, how should the docs be listed since the physician schema appears to be for the office, not for the individual doctors? Thanks for any insight!

Getting a video displaying a lightbox indexed
We have created a video for a category page with the goal of building links to the page and improving the conversion rate of visitors to the page. This category is Christmas oriented so we want to get the video dropped in ASAP. Unfortunately there was a mixup with our developer and he created a lightbox pop-up to display the video on the category page. I'm concerned this will hurt our ability to get the video indexed in Google. Here was his response. Is what he says here true? "With the video originally being in lightbox the iFrame Embed was enough since the video can't be on the page, it would have to be hidden on the page which is ignored by Google. The SEO would be derived from modifying the video sitemap to define the category page as the HTML page for the Wistia video and Google will make the association. The sitemap did all the heavy lifting, the schema markup did not come till later so it had no additional affect on Google other then to re-enforce the sitemap." Thanks for your help!

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>
