Just a quick explanation of how to embed youtube videos so they can be viewed in the actual post.

All you need to do is type in
CODE
[youtube]xxxxxxxxx[/youtube]
where xxxxxxxxx is the combination of numbers and letters of your youtube link, after the = sign.

For example if your video has a link like this:

then your code would be
CODE
[youtube]EK2tWVj6lXw[/youtube]

For anyone who hasnt seen it before, when you are writing your new post, if you look in the bottom right hand corner of the text box you will see a link box called BB Code Help.
If you click on that it tells you how to do everything you would probably ever need.

when you are browsing youtube and you've clicked on a video that is displayed on the side, the link changes to something like this:

CODE
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixzF01sbcLw&feature=related


In that case, all you want is the part in between the = and the & sign, in this case the bold part:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixzF01sbcLw&feature=related

then do it as per usual.

OK, now it has changed with the updated forum software

 

Click the third button from left at top ( Looks like a Green "F".  )

 

Select "media" from the dropdown menu.

 

paste the full URL from youtube in where  it asks for media URL.

 

 

And that's it.

I have also found if you right click on the YT video, you can select copy url and then paste to your post without having to add the brackets etc
