David P Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 YouTube video linking is a new subject for me and I could do with a tip on the finer details? To the Drive-train section of 'my garage', I have uploaded two YouTube clips of the Suprastick and Hecklers gear indicator LED's in operation, one in auto mode and the other in manualised mode, however, the titles of the two different clips are displayed sometimes but not others. What's the correct way to embed these links. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David P Posted August 18, 2011 Author Share Posted August 18, 2011 My links display an active still of the video at the beginning, but the titles are intermittent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 I would go with [video ] "http://www.youtube.com/youtubelinkthing"[/video ] Minus the quotations and spacing of course. The "video" links allow the full screen and widescreen options. The "youtube" one is old hat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlotte Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Yeah what Scott said. Or if you look in the quick reply box there is a picture of a video film. Click on that and it allows you to add the link. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David P Posted August 18, 2011 Author Share Posted August 18, 2011 Mmmm, The codes I have used are very different. Using the same clip, top with my code and bottom with Scotts. Test to see the difference. " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David P Posted August 18, 2011 Author Share Posted August 18, 2011 Both codes did the same job and the title was displayed on them both. In 'my garage', sometimes they do and sometimes they don't, which made me think I had been pressing some wrong buttons. Some things in this world will never change, yet some do maybe.
