How to place a youtube video window in the forum (mxs)

Post by podium1 »

Ok guys its just me getting tired of seeing so many people not knowing how to do this so I am going to give you all instructions.
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Upload your video to youtube.
2. Open your video in a new tab using the website youtube.
3. Highlight in blue the LAST set of letters of the link and copy them.
4. Make your topic in the media room in the forums and click the youtube button next to vimeo and right click between both boxes then paste.
5. Hit preview and make sure it works.

FOR EXAMPLE
1. Once uploaded to youtube click on the link it gives you. eg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TrYXEgR9e1Q
2. Highlight in blue the last set of letters before the = and copy them. eg TrYXEgR9e1Q
3. Hit the youtube button. eg [youtube][/youtube]
4. Right click between both youtube boxes and paste it. Or just use ctrl+v. eg [youtube...]TrYXEgR9e1Q[/youtube] (I have placed 3 dots in the first youtube box so that it does not work.)
5. Hit preview and make sure it works before submitting. (You look like a noob if you submit something stuffed up)
END RESULT SHOULD LOOK LIKE THIS.
