You'll see a new Youtube button on the toolbar. It lets you embed a video right into the post itself.

This is how it works:

You go to a youtube video, for example, http://youtube.com/watch?v=j96uqRKzHDI
and then copy that code at the end, after the "v=".

Then click on the youtube button in the toolbar and paste in that code.

Then you get:

j96uqRKzHDI

Cool?.

This only works for Youtube videos, by the way.

Hey Robert, isn't there a way to make your link to youtube go to a specific place now? I tried to search out the info but am missing it somehow.

If you want to link to a specific part of a video on YouTube, you can. For example,

http://youtube.com/watch?v=j96uqRKzHDI#t=1m08s

Notice the “#t=1m08s” on the end of the url? That link will take you 1 minutes and 8 seconds into that video.

I take it that you can link but not embed. Right? You wont be able to put the video up in the post and have it automatically start at the pre-specified place will you?

Great feature Robert :AOK I guess it would work the same with Daily motion videos or at least it does work similarly on Forum actif forums where I also have two or three of my favorite forums (Blues forum and Slide forum)
