It would be good to embed videos. so to see the picture
    #21233837 - 02/06/15 04:58 AM (9 years, 3 months ago)

I always love it when at other forums I can embed a video so you can see the video picture, etc. it looks far more cool than the ways videos are presented here which is a blig blank white square and where you have to type title in

I am sure it just needs a tweak in the software to allow this? Everything else about the format and siftware here I love. it is very easy to use and you don't lose text if you come off the page etc. But embedding videos properly would be a big improvement and aesthetically pleasing to the eye

At other forums I have experienced you have either option of youtube code OR copying the YT embed code directly into the messageboard

You can embed videos here, just paste the YouTube url in.the text box...

They're only just white squares until you click on the squares then the video plays...

Hmmm you have totally missed the point I am making. i know that is what happens. I have linked lots of videos. But I am saying I FAR prefer how videos embed in other website forums where they LOOK better.

You can see the picture on them, and the title, and it feels better, and looks better than how they embed here!

Go into your display preferences and click yes for auto play flash and you'll see the picture instead of flash screen.

5 settings up from the bottom of THIS page it says "Auto-play flash?" Select yes on that setting.

After you change that setting all embedded videos will show the picture and title of the vid instead of the flash screen.

I changed the setting to yes, and went to a previous video I had 'embedded (?) and it is that boring square of white still...?

OOOOPS I had forgot to submit, and now its happened. OMG, all these years. Does that mean NOONE saw them like I do now? Or is that why noone told me because they had their flash on and would see it like I am?

Idk if it's off or on by default, but I always keep auto play off, the majority of the time I don't care to watch what people post, and if I do all I have to do is click on it, maybe I'm just not much for aesthetics, I have avatars and sigs off as well.

This is the very annoying think happening now. EVERYTIME I have gone to submit a post, I find that the videos I am linking have reverted by to the blank white. So I have had to create another tab to the chrroomer and then find that freakin list and I see that the auto flash is on yes, and then submit it, and last time it worked, and the video on ther other tab got the picture. but I have just had to go through same process now and it hasn't worked

well after i subnitted my post the picture did turn up

watch this space. I am confused
