Thread: How to Insert YouTube Videos into Posts

Bump!

Example:

http://www..youtube.com/watch?v=8rNytFgCuMk

That's it. (The extra "." was slipped in after the www so the video would not display).

Here's what it would look like without that extra "."

Simply enter the YouTube URL into your post, and it will load into a player.

Example: http://www.youtube.com/blah

A valid link will turn into a video player.

That's it!

Is video support by vBulletin still limited to YouTube, or are other embedded sources functional now?

This function is only for youtube. They are usually written by independent programmers. Is there another you'd like me to look for?

Tom, how about personal videos.

That probably won't happen - unless they are on YouTube, since the video has to be stored somewhere.

Hard to say, there are many containers that do the same thing, but hardly a universal standard short of calling media player or quicktime...

Do you have the ability to supplement server side scripts that allow additional support?
