So how do you go about embedding video these days?

I knew a lot of the old tricks — Editing after you post, pasting it into html — but the old ways don't seem to cut it anymore. Or if they do, it doesn't show in the thread preview page. The embedding code just seems to get eaten up.

It actually stopped working for me well before gamrconnect 3.0, so I just stopped bothering with embeds. But now I've promised to fill the new mobile forum with game threads, and that means videos.

I see other people embedding, so what's the new ritual? How large an animal do I have to sacrifice?

paste the object/video link from the HTML edit.

also, being naked while doing it raises your success rate by 17%.

Thanks for the response.

I now see that the problem is that Youtube's new embed code uses an iframe and VGC obviously doesn't like iframes. If you ask Youtube for the old embed code, it still works just fine.

Also, being naked helped, but I don't think I'll be doing that while I'm at work again.
