How to embed youtube videos in post and watch on phone
Here's a step by step guide on how to insert Videos in AF.
You should see the Icon on the Right Hand Side when you're creating new posts, or when you're replying posts in the advanced mode. All Youtube videos have their own link, for example http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xGW5b1_5bss

The common mistake made is, to paste the whole URL between the
As such, Many might end up doing as below (Trust me.. i did that my 1st time). The CORRECT code to use, is to just leave the string of letters behind In this case, xGW5b1_5bss The Correct Forum Code should read You might also wish to use the "PREVIEW POST" button to make sure the video is appearing as you would like, before hitting the save button |

To Use the Google Video, You click on the Icon
Similiar to Youtube, you have to dissect the URL to show it in your posts. For example, http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...02697200402065 The URL Itself simply means video.google.com <--- Server URL /videoplay? <-- Action of the document docid= <--- "Name of Doc is" -6921702697200402065 <--- Name of doc/video itself As such, your link should read Again, please Preview Post before Submit This will minimize the "wrong posts" and multiple attempt, and help keep threads short, neat and tidy Cheers!! |

I noticed a lot just like to copy & paste the address
The above can still work if you disable the "Automatically parse link in text" before you click "Submit Reply" |

Also can click on "Share" in youtube to a shorter URL
to get the string (in bold) to insert [YOUTUBE]string[ /YOUTUBE] examples ============================= Full link shown in address bar 'http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iz2cuhglbQ0&feature=related Shorter link when click on "Share" 'http://youtu.be/iz2cuhglbQ0 Correct format when posting in a thread [YOUTUBE]iz2cuhglbQ0[ /YOUTUBE] ============================= Full link shown in address bar 'http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWXjo8UPK3I&feature=share Shorter link when click on "Share" 'http://youtu.be/FWXjo8UPK3I Correct format when posting in a thread [YOUTUBE]FWXjo8UPK3I[ /YOUTUBE] ============================= maybe this is easier for most to get the string right Last edited by ziw3i; 22-12-2011 at 05:34 PM. |
