I don’t know what you did to embed but if you did a simple iframe and then remembered to logout after viewing you should be ok.

That was my Slingbox SOLO. Yeah, some of the embed code must’ve been a unique identifier for my account. I didn’t catch that. Looking at the Facebook page some more the Login/Logout is external to the Flash. So you login and then it must embed the Flash with the account encoded into the FlashVars. Instead of using a cookie in flash.

Tons of Cartoon Network. ;-) Guess the embed code snuck in a token that linked to my account. I didn’t catch that.

Yeah, whoops, guess the code I copied included a token that linked it to my account.

Yeah, the embedded player has some sort of cookie associated with it or is hard coded as I’m looking at someone else’s box. (I also poked around the code – looks like the directory on their Apache server is open with some Facebook js and php files to explore. But I obviously didn’t make it as far as you did.)

I always figured you as a Cartoon Network fan. Now I can see you watch it.
No volume though for some reason.

I hope I didn’t mess up your Tivo – the embedded player is working! You had Anthony Bourdain (sp?) on. Kinda cool.
