Add external media to the media library

== Description ==
Add external media from a [supported oEmbed provider](http://codex.wordpress.org/Embeds) (YouTube, Vimeo, SoundCloud, Twitter, ...) to the media library

== Installation ==
1. Upload the extracted plugin folder and contained files to your /wp-content/plugins/ directory
2. Activate the plugin through the "Plugins" menu in WordPress

== Frequently Asked Questions ==
= Does this plugin import the actual external media content into the library? =
No, external media attachments just contain URL references to the original resources

= How can I show an external media attachment with the specified width and height? =
`$oembed = new WP_oEmbed();
$oembed_width = get_post_meta( $attachment->ID, '_oembed_width', true );
$oembed_height = get_post_meta( $attachment->ID, '_oembed_height', true );
echo $oembed->get_html( wp_get_attachment_url( $attachment->ID ), array( 'width' => $oembed_width, 'height' => $oembed_height ) );`
				
= Why are the width and height settings in some external media attachments being ignored? =
Some service providers, such as Twitter and Instagram, have a maximum and minimum allowed width and ignore the height setting completely
