1. Copy the "Embed" text from the Youtube video's page.
2. Paste into post.
3. Post it. It will appear as text, not the video.
4. Press "Edit".
5. Post it again as is, and the video will be there.



Thanks. Let me try that then...



Wow! It works :D Thanks a bunch, Soleron.

Pfft I know a shortcut!

You drink some urine and then blink at the screen a few times. It's magic.

If you don't believe me then you should try it.

there is an easier way that works the first time.

1) click the "insert / edit embeded media" button on the rich text reply control.
2) paste the url in the field.
3) click ok
4) click post.

I've never understood how people have problems embedding videos.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

it always works for me, and I've been using FireFox for quite a while. You may be picking the wrong media type, but I don't really know what happens when you do that.
