Test
i was hoping to directly embed youtube clips in a thread (not link to them, but actually embed them in the thread so they can be seen and played without being steered first to youtube).
i'm using this thread to see whether it works. maybe the thread will be useful as a general testing-ground.
so . . . the test.

does anyone know how to embed youtube clips inside a thread here? on another forum (ilx) you can just cut-and-paste the youtube url, and the clip directly appears in the thread. any suggestions are, of course, greatly appreciated.
I will be interested to know what you learn.

doesn't seem to work with the link or the embed code
I found this old discussion in the Vanilla forums. This was just my first search, but perhaps xtrev or one of the experienced people here could find more. Will look a little more when I have time -- if you haven't found a solution by then.
You lot use the place more than me after all :-)
*quite apart from my personal indifference to/dislike of videos, I've always found it slows down page load times MASSIVELY.
Vote no on embeds

I see that you are doing a little regulating in the pissin and moanin thread over at Mordac ;+)
- But it would be nice with some kind of device to play m3u clips. I rarely click on m3u links because it cleans out my winamp playlist.
- Heh, go ahead, "Knock yourself out".
I'm also in favor of having our post count displayed. But that's mostly because it would drive jUj crazy.
