Cant Post Embedded Videos

[UxKa]

I dont get it, the same code works on other sites but when I try to post here I just see the code. I wanted to post this in the Video section but it doesnt work:

<param name="movie" value="http://embed.break.com/MTgyNDgz"></param><embed enableJavascript="false" allowScriptAccess="never" allownetworking="internal" src="http://embed.break.com/MTgyNDgz" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"></embed>


What am I doing wrong?

we don't allow embedding videos in that manner.

you can either find the direct video link (avi, wmv, mov, etc) and use media tags, find it on youtube, or just post a link to it.

I dont remember any html anymore, how would I write the media tag? I forgot to mention I even viewed the source code on the heavy metal vid thread, copied the section where someone embedded a video, posted it with the link I wanted (YouTube) and it still didnt work. I havent gotten anything to work with YouTube links either.

[Matt]

if you have the direct link to the video (like http://wtfdetroit.com/blahblah/jason...atsbabies.avi), then you can do this:

[MEDIA ]http://wtfdetroit.com/blahblah/jasonmaxielleatsbabies.avi[/MEDIA ] (without the spaces)

for YouTube videos, check this out: http://wtfdetroit.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5829

LMK if that helps!

Nobody ever uses the no parse code.

YouTube tags stopped working?

I can no longer do [ youtube ]{youtube video id}[ /youtube ] by hand (minus the spaces) and have it embed a video.

You don't use the little film icon in the toolbar? I know I always have to take the "s" off "https" to get it to work, but it always works at least.

Time for you to get to work, Vinny. #smh
