hello,
as you probably know, youtube.com is blocked from China, and in China, people mostly use tudou.com.

I am planning to create a joomla article page that depends on where the access IP is, it will display a different video source.

For example, I have the same video in youtube.com and tudou.com. If the IP is from China, it will show the article with
{tudou} videoID {/tudou}

else it will show the video from youtube.com

with
{youtube} videoID {/youtube}

Is this possible?

Can I create a custom wrapper tag
{tudou_youtube} videoID1, videoID2 {/tudou_youtube}
where videoID1 is the ID for tudou and videoID2 is for youtube and it will do the above logic based on IP?


What is the best way to do this?

We will add tudou.com in our providers for AllVideos asap.
;)

Actually, tudou.com is already in the provider list.

My question is really about the logic to do ip 2 location and determine which video source to provide. Would this logic reside in allvideo, or I should use jumi to implement the logic in the joomla article page.

Sorry this is not possible.

What you could do is look in to something like GeoIP (maxmind.com) and load/display a different movie based on IP location. This however is obviously not an "out of the box" feature so you will need to do some coding to get it to work.
