How do I post youtube videos on the forum?

[Alucard V]

Like the title saids; I have no clue how to post videos.
Help....

Just paste a standard, unshortened URL. The forum will automatically give it formatted [url] tags, which it can then turn into its fancy embedded video format.

To put it in a spoiler box just do this, but with square brackets instead of parenthesiseses
(spoiler-box)(url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bjLUBXPBjY)blablabla text(/url)(/spoiler-box)

That'll come out like this:

Spoiler!

I know this thread is old, but when I google posting youtube videos on PSOworld this is like the only thing I can find involving my problem, I have tried doing many things to get my videos to post in the thread like Gigawuts has displayed above, but I always just have a link

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=19tRbnX40S8

I even tried posting a link from the youtube video shown as an example, and I still get a link when I preview or submit post

https://www.youtube.com/watch?x-yt-t...&v=2bjLUBXPBjY

any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Link must be http:// not https://

Thanks for replying, and yes I noticed the https, this is what happens if I remove the s

It has to be just the video's link. Modifiers, like what ended up in that link, break it. Only links formatted as www.youtube.com /watch?v=19tRbnX40S8 will work.

EDIT: looks like taking off the https:// completely will do the same, ie. just www.youtube.com/whatever.

ok I understand now, this was driving me crazy, seems I was overlooking what I needed to do, thank you very much for the help, I tried it on another video and got it to work as well.

Thank you very much
