Embeding youtube vid's

when trying to add a youtube video onto a topic sometimes it works and others it wont.

I have just tried to add 3 videos, the first 2 embedded no problem except the bb code changed from youtube to flash(425,350)

I have tried changing the youtube code tot he flash one but it still wont embed.

any idea why ?

Thanks

you have add 1 video at a time. I try to add 3 video on 1 page last time and it won't working either. So, just post them separately.

did you use the

Code:

[youtube][/youtube]

tags?

Each video must be in a different post. Two in one post will not work.

I got the first 2 videos to work in one postm the third i put in a new post and it still wont work just shows up as text including the [] tags

Did you make sure to copy the code exactly?

I have posted 7 videos within one post. so it can work.
I find just using the embed code is more succesful than the video link option.

i agree.. because sometimes (maybe often) when you use the link then you view your post, nothing would be there but if you use the embed code, most likely it would work..

Have you downloaded the latest adobe flash player plugin?

you should try it like this: [flash(425,350)][/flash]
and in the video link remove "watch?" and "=" change into "/"
like this:

from this:

to this:

it works for me like this

can someone tell me if I could do the same with videos from dailymotion and other sites? (well so that their's no need to post link and we could watch it straight on the forum?)
