No idea. I don't think so. I am sure you would need to create the environment too display it.
Interesting. I'm going to look at requirements to display videos.

Into the description , click on "code html " and insert the code that you have got from youtube .
e.g. <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/xxxxxxxx" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

where width and heigt are the dimensions of the frame video and xxxxxxx is the film .

Right now I test it and works fine . Only that if the frame is between the first lines , it show also in the search page .
It should be after 4/ 5 linees ....

"Source" is the name of the button.
