great thread,saves me having to go hunt down a final fan post,
before i go searching the video thread,have youtube just got rid of the old way to embed becuase the video i put in my sig only a couple of weeks ago cannot be done the same now,i use to prefer using the html thing so you could at least preview it in your sig,but that code appears to have gone from youtube is just as simple as c&p in a post now or do you have to rich text

is there a way to preview your sig i always thought there was back in the day but maybe a foggy memory

I can still use the old embed code on Youtube.

Click on the share button, then on the embed button on the right of the link, scroll down and check the option "use old embed code"

The problem is that not all Youtube videos have the option to use old embed code, like this one

works for me

^ How?!

Oh, I see it, and it's weird .

I usually go to Youtube, click on Share, then Embed. If I go this route then the old code isn't there. However, if I find the video already embeded, like your post, I can click the Share button at the top of the video and there, the option to use the old code appears.

It's a bit weird.

I'm having trouble embedding videos from Gametrailers, even though I've followed the instructions given in the "How to"-thread... any suggestions??



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

youtube doesn't use old embed code anymore, and vgchartz needs to update lol.

Don't panic tho, there is ways to get around this. I use this website http://www.vtubetools.com/

It's easy to use and there is a video demonstration on the site.

Once you get the embed code, copy and paste it into the HTML button in the thread on vgchartz.
