How to: Embed a Youtube Video

It appears as if the video link isn't embedding the short youtube links for me lately.



SEE! SEEEEE!!!! HELP!

I use the same procedure but get different results using safari on mac vs iPad.

On the mac, the video posts (embeds) like I want it to.

On the iPad, it just produces a link.

Is there a trick to get it to embed via the iPad?
 


using video tags here worked, but song is not queueing to 7:00 (420 sec) mark like link instructs.
On hot chicks thread, same video tags not working

This is with youtube tags.

OK, I am noticing a difference in how the video tag works between forums.

On Hot Chicks thread, I get this when I use video button
Code:
[vide.o]https://youtu.be/OZM254El-Lk?t=420[/vide.o]

On Tech Support, same link renders this with video button
Code:
[vide.o=youtube;OZM254El-Lk]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZM254El-Lk&feature=youtu.be&t=420[/vide.o]

Video button is broken.

I put the dot in video to make the code print instead of render.
