Following the upgrade to the forum software, it's now possible to embed video into threads.
INSTRUCTIONS
In order for you to see the correct coding, I have had to change it in the direcitons which follow (otherwise, you'd just see the video !!).
To get the correct code, replace the square brackets with curly ones.
YouTube
The code is [youtube]video_id[/youtube]
If the link on YouTube is
the video_id is
cdXTDovB9K8
Yahoo!
The code is [yahoo]video_id[/yahoo]
If the link on Yahoo is
video.yahoo.com/video/play?vid=c860df3cc...5220&cache=1
the video_id is
1155220&cache=1
Google Video
[google]video_id[/google]
For example, if the link on Google Video is
video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-3406925506469882756
the video_id is -3406925506469882756
For local Google Video sites, the code is modified slightly. The code for Google UK would be
[google.co.uk]video_id[/google.co.uk]
Be aware that some google codes (like the example) have a minus sign in them - make sure that you copy it !
