As a link, I will use this example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJ9rUzIMcZQ
That's a standard YouTube link, it has the "http://youtube.com/" part, and then the "watch?v=" part, those two are basically YouTube's way to figure out what you wanna do. You're on YouTube to watch a video on the watch page.
When embedding a video on our forums (may be different on other forums), you forget the first part. What you want to get, is the video code after "watch?v=". Now this is different for every video, and letters are case-sensitive. From my example link, I will use fJ9rUzIMcZQ, since that is the video code.
Now take that code, and insert it in our YouTube BB code, my example would be:
Code: Select all
[youtube]fJ9rUzIMcZQ[/youtube]
Just make sure not to post too many videos in one post/reply. Some computers don't have the resources to deal with so many Flash Players, just saying.
(PS: A lot of this info is not really important to you, but I added it anyways)
