Hi,

I am going to youtube, finding a video, using the share and then embed buttons and then copying the link.

On PS, I am hitting the youtube button and pasting the link.

Whne I post though, all I ge is a blank youtube screen with no video and a message saying: error, please try later.

Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong.

Ty

Hey trickybob,

Youtube should work fine, unless you're using the wrong Link & Codes.

For example, I want to post this Video

The URL is

So click the YouTube button, paste that in, and done!

[YOUTUBE] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=81szj1vpEu8 [/YOUTUBE]

If it still doesn't work, try to do so in a post here and leave it with an error, i'll go into your post and see whats up!

Hi Matt,

Thanks for taking the time.

Where is the URL?

This isn't what I'm copying/pasting.

Thanks.

I see your problem!

The link they give Re-directs you to the actual video by the looks of it, whereas to post a video here, it needs to be the original link.

Simple Copy the URL at the top in your address bar, and put that as the address for the Youtube tags.

You also had two " http://"'s wish would also cause problems

Try again _cool:
