How to add videos when the url link won't do.

Here you can talk about whatever floats your boat. Your favorite movie, sports team, etc. If it's a little racey, I suggest you post in R&R, otherwise we'll move it for you.

How to add videos when the url link won't do.

Post by Michael Slaunwhite »

Okay, here is a very small explanation on HOW TO add video's to this forum when just pasting the url will not work for you.

First find the video you wish to post here.

Second select the icon above that looks like Video (it's the 5th icon from the right), press it.

Third, you will see a small panel open up that has size, width, height, provider, ID, and a URL which sometimes will not work.

The TWO you need to look at are Provider, and ID.

If your video is from You Tube, then select the You Tube as the provider (scroll to bottom, you will see it).

Now, if you right clicked on your Youtube video, and selected "Copy Video Url", and if you paste it to your post, it will look like this...

example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=pl ... lpage&v=[b]O6ju2OQlxJs[/b]

Now the only part you need to have is the ID which is this...

O6ju2OQlxJs

Now copy that code into the ID, then select INSERT video.

That's it, easy peezy. :)
