Cool news. I hope they will implement myspace video tag too. Myspace vids are compressed to a lot better quality than what youtube crunches theirs down to.

 

Myspace vids are always in stereo aswell, whereas ive noticed most youtube vids are Mono

I'm having trouble posting a video now from youtube to the forum. did something change? all I use to do till this last time I tried it was copy the link then paste it in my post and it always worked, now it just puts the link to the video, not the video itself. see the Adriangale Suckerpunch post

nope, still not working for me

 

Haha. That link! Oh, dear.

 

It is a bit finicky sometimes. Or most of the time. Perhaps Dan can shed some light on the situation?

The url autodetection does not work in IE, only in Firefox (don't know about Chrome or Safari). You can still embed a Youtube video in IE10, but only if you use the "Special BBCode" icon at upper left and choose "Media", or for those who know bbcode, just enclose the URL in media /media tags.

 

Have I mentioned just how much I despise Internet Exploder?

The other thing you can do is that before you paste in the youtube url, flip the little light switch icon at upper left to change the editor mode to old-school, past in the URL, then flip the switch back. Then when you preview/save the post, the autoembedding will work.
