jazz1 Posted July 16, 2017 Author Share Posted July 16, 2017 Hey guys for some reason the videos on YouTube dated pre 2017 embed fine, the post 2017 videos are not embedding? Any idea please. The only difference between dated videos is they seem to have a link, stating http://www.youtube.etc where the new videos that do not embed state http://www.youtu.be.etc. Here a link for my video I can not seem to embed via the forum link, any idea please?

Frank Bullitt Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 How did you do that Sir, please ? As you asked so nicely Jazz and as your photography skills have vastly improved I shall tell you When you start a new post there is an image in the bar along the top that looks like a 35mm film clipping (image attached). Click on this then cut & paste or copy & paste the full youtube address from the address bar into this and click okay. Et voila monsieur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Bullitt Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 Yep, just as I explained to jazz above. Cut the link directly from youtube and pasted it into the film clip at the top then clicked okay. Maybe it's a tablet issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Bullitt Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 No, don't use the tags just use the film clip logo and paste the link in there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
