Monitoring embeded video plays

This week I got a simple request from our customer - to count plays of videos embeded at their site. We currently support different kinds of players - from FLVs interpeted by JwPlayer, Vimeo, Czech Stream.cz to YouTube movies. The task was so simple that I (fool) made a prototype only for FireFox and estimated at most few hours for the implementation. I couldn't have been dumber ... First attempt The first and very naive attempt was to attach click handler via jQuery (but this didn't work at all): $(document).
