August1991 Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 Am I the only one who is having trouble to link/embed videos (ie. youtube) in my posts? It used to work but now it doesn't. I use IE9 in case that changes anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shady Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 Am I the only one who is having trouble to link/embed videos (ie. youtube) in my posts? It used to work but now it doesn't. I use IE9 in case that changes anything. I don't usually have trouble, but for some reason, the insert media link always duplicates the link twice.

punked Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 (edited) Haven't been able to do it for a while. Youtube went to html 5 recently right? Edited January 19, 2012 by punked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybercoma Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 (edited) You need to make sure you use the long link from YouTube. Long URLs look like this: hxxp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ma8D-Gxf1rs Short URLs look like this: hxxp://youtu.be/ma8D-Gxf1rs Sometimes the long link will have stuff after it (ie. &feature or embedded). To be on the safe side, I usually remove that extra stuff that begins with an "&", although it may work with it. Hope this helps.
