Where have all those TED Talks gone?
Well.
On my WIndows machine little grey bars started to appear instead of the amazing TED Flash video stills I had before. I mailed TED. No reply. I followed up. A short reply.
What I now see on my new MacBook is a recommendation to switch to a new Flash player by re-embedding all talks I had :(
Which is 90 to-date. Ninety. What a nightmare.
I will move to a standard instead. Which is YouTube. Works on your iPhone as well. Compare with &443/. From top to bottom: YouTube, new Flash player, old Flash embedding. There was the benefit of superior still image quality with the old Flash embedding. Gone.

Hi Harald,
Yes, unfortunately, because our former embed hosting company left the business, we've had to ask everyone with an embedded TEDTalk to switch to our new player and stream location, by picking up a new embed code from our site. (We've had to make the switch on our own blog too, manually, with all 350+ talks, if that's any consolation to you as you dive in.)
Believe me, I know this is a lot to ask, and I appreciate your efforts at sharing TEDTalks!
We're proud of the new TED player and the improved stream that comes along with the hassle of re-embedding. I hope you'll consider using the new player. But no matter what works best for you -- thanks again for sharing TEDTalks and for your insightful comments.
Best,
Emily McManus
