- workaround for providers that are skimpy on their data, such as missing width/height or thumbnail_width/thumbnail_height
- workaround for YFrog listing "image" instead of "photo" type
- generally more lax about formatting: if it comes back and looks kinda ok, we'll take it.
- discovery uses system HTML parser, should be more robust if the links include things like ampersands with proper HTML-level escaping
Newly supported:
- TwitPic: added a local function using TwitPic's API, since the oohembed implementation for TwitPic produced invalid output which Services_oEmbed rejects. (bug filed upstream)
Tweaked...
- Flickr: works, now using whitelist to use their endpoint directly instead of going through oohembed
- Youtube: worked around a bug in Services_oEmbed which broke the direct use of API discovery info, so we don't have to use oohembed.
Not currently working...
- YFrog: whitelisting their endpoint directly as the oohembed output is broken, but this doesn't appear to work currently as I think things are confused by YFrog's servers giving a '204 No Content' response on our HEAD checks on the original link.
