Posting Youtube Videos (and others) How to Embed Videos/See Post #1 for info & link.

ultramarine · 22-11-2006

**Updated Instructions for Embedding/Posting videos:**

To embed a YouTube video, paste the YouTube video ID within [ yt ] [ /yt ] brackets (do not include the spaces, those are necessary to show the code sample)

The youtube video ID is the portion of the URL after the "v="

Example: if the URL is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_sfnQDr1-o

Just use the 5_sfnQDr1-o between the yt and /yt tags.

For more complete instructions on this and other codes, go here. Scroll down the page ... there are examples for posting videos from various sites.

I really want to figure this out but I still can't....

ingvildel · 23-11-2006

You just press the youtube-button and write the youtube-id between the tags like this:

(youtube)youtube-ID(/youtube)

The youtube-id is the "code" in the url, behind "watch?v="

Do you have to be a youtube registered user to post videos?

**Faith Akiyama** · 24-11-2006

^No, you don't have to be registered at YouTube to post embedded videos here on tFS. But if you want to actually upload your own videos on YouTube and then embed them here, you would have to be registered

**Faith Akiyama** · 27-11-2006

^Are you sure you only copied the video ID and not anything after it (The code is only between "watch?v=" and the first "&")?

**Meg** · 28-11-2006

It worked for me just fine. I did exactly as faith akiyama describes and it worked like a dream. Check the wentworth miller thread for proof!

SiennaInLondon · 03-12-2006

Haven't seen any (I'll take your word for it Meg!) but I hope this wont slow things down around here if people start posting vids endlessly? I don't see how a link doesn't suffice. Still nothing Earth shattering has happened yet!

rayder · 22-12-2006

how long dose it take to for the vid to go on the page?

**MulletProof** · 22-12-2006

^a few seconds. if it never shows then it's probably not properly embed.

ultramarine · 24-12-2006

Fianlly I got it ... you dont have to put the WHOLE youtube link ... just the end of the url -vid ID- yay for meee!

ronjaaa · 25-12-2006

i wonder do anyone know how to save youtube clips?

wendla · 11-03-2007

Sorry, I didn't know where to put this.

Is it possible to embed videos from Veoh? It would be really cool to be able to do that. The video size there is much bigger than most of the other video uploading sites.
