Title: How to embed & code it in your post.
Post by: Loaded on October 26, 2010, 05:39:11 PM
Do your test here in this thread before making a thread/post, this way you can check out your work here instead of making a thread that is messed up

As you can see at the bottom of this post, we now can embed YouTube videos. But there is a bit of a trick to it to make it work here, I will do my best to explain.

Example for the below video

1... Youtube code... Go to the youtube video you would like to post and hit the <Embed> icon to get the code, for this vid the code looks like this...

Code: [Select]
<object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/CvF3pHyuRa0?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/CvF3pHyuRa0?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object>
2... You don't need all the above code, look above to find just this
Code: [Select]
http://www.youtube.com/v/CvF3pHyuRa0?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0 <<< This is the only code needed, again for this video example.

Now post that code into your thread/post, like so...
Code: [Select]
http://www.youtube.com/v/CvF3pHyuRa0?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0
3... Look above at the "code icons", see the (http://www.mafiaowns.com/Themes/BlackRainV2118/images/bbc/flash.gif) icon? That is your "flash" icon to embed flash.

4... So to get your video to work, post the link like I said above, left click and drag to highlight the link, now click the "Flash Icon", it will look like below...

Code: [Select]
[flash=200,200]http://www.youtube.com/v/CvF3pHyuRa0?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0[/flash]
5... If you wish to make the video bigger (max on this forum is 800x600), all you have to do is change the flash=200,200 numbers to something bigger, the 1st number is width and the second number is height, so to make it 800x600, it would look like this flash=800,600

I am sure you know how to center the video.

I think I explained it ok, if not let me know what you need to know.

http://www.youtube.com/v/CvF3pHyuRa0?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0

The above should work for other video sites that give you embedded code to do so.

You can make the steps easier for noobs.

1. Copy the URL of the Youtube video.
2. Add this to the end of the video 
Code: [Select]
?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US3. Highlight entire link and click the Flash button and change the size.

Took years for this to finally get embedded?

Bone's decision not too (Flash hack paranoia?), I don't have that paranoia.
