New feature: Youtube Videos in threads

Travis · 03-30-2007, 01:00 AM

I've noticed lots of Youtube links lately so I thought this hack would be nice...

There are now two buttons on the "new thread" editor, one for youtube and one for Google Video. Just paste in the URL to the video between the tags and you'll get the video right in the thread/post!

For quick replies, you'll need to click "go advanced" at the bottom of the editor to get these buttons.

Here's a sample:

YouTube Video

Enjoy!

Does this just "redirect the link to YouTube or does it maintain a small copy on the RS server?

BigAl07 · 03-30-2007, 09:45 AM

That's pretty cool Doni

Can you make it do other "tricks" as well?

LOL

I'm working on a few older videos that I will post in my chronicle thread.... I'm having issues adding music to them in photobucket right now

saltwaterfarm · 03-30-2007, 10:47 AM

LOL Travis. Is that going to be a new olympic sport?

Travis · 03-30-2007, 08:03 PM

I'll see if there's any way to make it work for photobucket, ReefSpace and others but not sure.

It embeds the video, so no, it doesn't keep a copy on our server. Just pulls it real-time from YouTube.
