Possible Duplicate: How does Facebook Sharer select Images? I’m trying to share a video

Possible Duplicate:
How does Facebook Sharer select Images?

I’m trying to share a video from feralmotion.com using 

http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=<url to share>

The page I’m trying to share can be viewed here

It may be important to mention I am sharing flowplayer

I can properly share video’s to webkit and -moz- browsers, but when
I share on IE, the image never makes it to Facebook. This leaves facebooks tiny play button neatly tucked in the top left corner, in a not-so-obvious fashion.

Test it for yourself here, try in different browsers.

It may be important to mention that the facebook linter finds the image when 

http://www.feralmotion.com/share?watch=1925

is run through it.

Has anyone come across this before ??

    Add the Open Graph Meta tags to your page: /?watch=XXX

    These meta tags are added to your “share” pages: /share?watch=XXX and there’s no reason not to add them to your actual pages!

    EDIT:
    Based on the comments below, it seems that it’s a bug in the sharer.php script.
    P.S: The Like plugin is recommended over the sharer.php
