It's a difficult task, but with so many links being posted to videos hosted on YouTube it will make everyone's life so much easier if the embedding function can be mastered when making a post :ok:

YouTube Embedding. To keep the YouTube video within your post, please use the YouTube embed icon http://images.ibsrv.net/ibsrv/res/src:www.pprune.org/get/images/youtubefinalng6.gif. Within the [y o u t u b e] [/ Y O U T U B E] should be inserted either:

All letters & numbers after the = in the url, and paste those into the YouTube link: for instance "8k01G-vjfLw".

Using the above we get the following embedded video, which obviates the need to follow a link to YouTube and wander away from your favourite site, Rotorheads ;)

8k01G-vjfLw

Just to change things, IB Tech have removed the YouTube icon http://images.ibsrv.net/ibsrv/res/src:www.pprune.org/get/images/youtubefinalng6.gif as they consider it no longer needed.

To embed a YouTube video, all that is now needed is to copy and paste the full url of the YouTube video into your post.
