| Superduperest  | Embed Youtube vid not working
When I embed the YouTube vid to a post it only comes up as a white box when I preview it. What do I need to do to fix this? I tried both embed code and URL but both failed. Used the YouTube wrap icon as well. Still no vid. Even tested posing it to a inactive thread. Nothing. I have the latest Flash version.

You wrap the letters and numbers from the embed code on the video in the youtube tags here. It will look like this. PHP Code:

That embed code doesn't look like the one I use for my profile page. It's missing some stuff. Geez, why didn't I go into computer science? OK, MG, here is the full embed code for a Moody Blues vid. Normally for my profile page I only use this part of the embed code and it works fine. http://www.youtube.com/v/IPEMZteFjWc&hl=en&fs=1& However, when I want to do that in a post on a thread and wrap it with the YTs then it doesn't seem to work. I'll do it for you right now and let's see what happens. MG. I just previewed my message and the full embed code, the long one just cut and pasted to SR has the vid come up. However the shorter code did not come up. Am I to assume then that the full version of the embed code is the way to paste videos. I didn't even use the YT wraps on the full embed code. I only cut and pasted it to show you what I'm using from the longer version. I hope you understand what I'm doing here. I don't mean to take up your time.

MG. I believe I have it figured out through the help of a friend. Don't waste your time answering me. Take care.

Just a side note. The embed code will work in this forum, but not the other forums. You have to use the youtube tags in other forums.

thanks for the clarification MG You probably know this by now Ken but to use the YT tags you use the URL not the embed code, and take everything after the '=' sign (I bolded it here for the Moodies song) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IPEMZteFjWc wrap that in the YT tags and... voila! Some URLs have multiple '=' - always take it from after the first one  D

Thanks, Dee. That's definately an easier route.
