You're using parethesis ( ).

Use the square brackets [ ], found to the right of the P key on your keyboard.

Nice! =)

 

Of all of the video services on Swaylocks original list, Youtube seems to be the only one that works anymore.

Google Video is now a video search engine. Google now owns Youtube.

Vimeo doesn't appear work any more.

Same with Daily Motion.

Eyspot, Jumpcut went out of business.

Revver might as well be out of business 'cause their site is really buggy and slow.

Hi people,

Here's how you post a video into a post in the new forums.

Just type the following pattern right into your editor:

[ video: video url ]

So, for example, if you want to post a YouTube video, copy the url to the video and paste it into the video url in the pattern above. Make sure there's no spaces in the embed pattern.

There was a more recent thread on this subject, I thought - but I couldn't find it.  Anyway, I use the long link at youtube.  Someone told me.  With the short link, nothing shows up.

...I have no idea ....
