Yes, you can easily add that video from MySpace to your TikiWiki wiki page:
{FLASH(movie=>"http://lads.myspace.com/videos/vplayer.swf?m=33284480&v=2&type=video",width=>430,height=>346,quality=>high)/}

To to this, you need to example the code that MySpace gives you:

< a href="http://myspacetv.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=33284480">FIAT 126-PORSCHE< /a>< br>< embed src="http://lads.myspace.com/videos/vplayer.swf" flashvars="m=33284480&v=2&type=video" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="430" height="346">< /embed>

Specifically, look at the EMBED tag and note these two items:

• src="http://lads.myspace.com/videos/vplayer.swf"
• flashvars="m=33284480&v=2&type=video"

Using Tiki's PluginFlash, you simply include these values:

{FLASH(movie=>"http://lads.myspace.com/videos/vplayer.swf?m=33284480&v=2&type=video",width=>430,height=>346,quality=>high)/}

See my blog post for additional information on using the FLASH plugin.

HTH,
