 * The pluggins [Viper’s Video Quicktags](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/vipers-video-quicktags/)
   and [swfObject Reloaded](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/swfobject-reloaded/)
   don’t work with advanced-custom-fields. The custum field display the short code
   instead the swf animation.

 * I find a temporary solution with add at line 100 of api.php :
    `$value = do_shortcode(
   $value );`
 * I’m really not sure that the best way to modify the pluggin.
 * I hope the next version of the pluggin support shortcode and the team notify 
   here the change.
 * Thanks.
