Embedding YouTube Videos

[Tiberius]

People have started posting links to YouTube which is great. However it is much better if you can view the video without leaving the site. To do this, follow these steps:

1) Get the url (e.g. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bkhQLt1vbWU)

2) Trim it so that you only get the video code (in this case bkhQLt1vbWU)

3) Put it between youtube tags:

Code:

[youtube]bkhQLt1vbWU[/youtube]

Voila!

Edward Current's video "The Atheist Delusion", hilarious fun!

I think I'd rather just link it and let people do the leg work by pressing 'click'

Is there any way to embed Google videos as well?

[Tiberius]

Yup. Just take the "docid" (videoplay?docid=891776135764757633) and put it between google tags.

Code:

[google]891776135764757633[/google]
