Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thank you gentlemen.

My questions is about duplicate video content. I haven't been able to get a clear understanding from reading the previous threads.

We are hosting our videos with Vimeo and embedding into our site.

I want to embed them in 2 locations - on our features page with Java (Can be seen here http://simpletexting.com/features/). I also want to embed them in our resource section so that we can link to them directly.

I am wondering what the best way to do this for SEO and whether there is a chance that google will penalize us for duplicate content? If leave out the videos on the features page in the XML sitemap, does that address the problem?

There are 2 threads I saw on the topic and they have somewhat conflicting opinion from the same person.

http://www.seomoz.org/q/duplicate-video-content-question --Duplicate video on the same site is not a problem

http://www.seomoz.org/q/duplicate-video-onsite-how-do-you-treat-this-in-sitemap -- Duplicate videos are a problem as google can recognize them as such due to audio wave patterns, video length etc.

Thanks
