I should really make you pay for this theme, but since I’m in a generous mood I’m giving this one away free of charge! This “Videos theme” will cater for all you Vlogging needs. A theme dedicated to displaying video posts and an orderly and most importantly, easy manner.
So if you ever wanted to run you own “No sweat” Vlog (Video Log/Blog), you can do so now with my Video Theme. Making use of the most simplest of wordpress functionalities, you can embed your own Videos, YouTube, Meta Cafe, MySpace, Veoh and many more.

Usage
Adding a video to a post works by adding “Custom Fields“. Enter the following Keys for the respective videos types: custom, youtube, metacafe, dailymotion, blip, veoh, vimeo, myspace, break, liveleak.
Then in the Value field add only the code of the video. Usually very easy to find in the address bar of the video you want to add.
Examples:
If the video you wanted embed into your post was: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vbgySMqRO1Y
- Key: youtube
- Value: vbgySMqRO1Y
If you wanted to embed your own hosted FLV video into your post use the direct url:
- Key: custom
- Value: http://<youraddress>/wp-content/videos/video.flv
Please note that the video does not need to have any predefined directory, just a direct address.
Here is an example of what you must do with Meta Cafe videos:
Previews
Limitations
This theme was not made for blogging. If you do make a post and not add a video, there will just be a large gap where the video is suppose to go. Also, a posts content can’t be too much otherwise it might out grow the length of the video block. Sorry about that.
This theme was sponsored by Videos.Blueworld.co.za.

Very outside the box, I like it!
This theme has got to be the best video theme I’ve seen so far. You’re right - you should have made us pay for it - but I’m glad you didn’t.
I agree… this is the nicest free theme ive ever come across.

can you help?
@heytbecom: The footer has been encrypted. I did that to preserve back links to my site and the project i did it with. It’s not that hard to work around it but would prefer if you keep my meta info intact. Thanks.
@jack: I see your delema. I think I’ll make a quick edit to the Function.php file and add the ability to add any embed code to a post. Please check back soon.
