How to Embed Youtube Videos in Posts

Post by BIGmike »

Hey guys, I finally found out how to be able to embed youtube videos in your posts. Here is how to do it once you found a video you want to share:

1. In the url for the video you need to copy the code. We'll use this video url as an example (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rwz2M_w7E5w). Copy the code that follows "watch?v=". In this case it would be "rwz2M_w7E5w".

2. Click on the "youtube" button which is now found under "Font size".

3. Insert the code you copied in between the "youtube" area. Your video should appear like this:

Copy the embed code from the video and paste it in your article, story, whatever.
Delete all the red and replace it with one of these [

Oracle, so it is just like putting in a video from the EASports world website.
Good to know.

If I have a video from EASports world, what do I need to do to upload it to youtube?
I don't have any way to capture videos so the EASportsworld is the only way for now for me to create the highlights.
But I want to save them to Youtube also.

Anyone?

You can download the video from easportsworld to your pc. It has a download link on the bottom right I think. It's down there somewhere. Then just upload it to youtube. Youtube will import FLV's.

My video link is this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jirQ5yo-tvo

If I input this:

I see no video.

Is this for on these message boards? If so, it is not working for me. Anyone else having luck?


The embed below works in leaguedaddy though:
[embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/abjgOzS2zzE?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed]

For some reason I am having problems getting youtube videos to post. I've put them in with the youtube button like I always have but for some reason I can't get them to post so I posted the links.

The thread is here: viewtopic.php?f=117&t=32546&p=520103#p520103

For reference, I had a thread that I created with pics to help clear up any confusion:
viewtopic.php?f=4&t=28453&p=520134#p520134


I just updated it with currents steps to embed videos within threads and I included a note to remove "S" if your youtube video URL starts off with https.
Thanks for the info Nole.
