I appologise if this has been asked/answered before, but is it possible to embed videos in posts?

Thanks in advance.



Kind regards

I think you need to host them on somewhere like Photobucket and then add the link to your thread.

G'day Shewie

Thanks for the response.

I have been providing direct links to the videos I have hosted on youtube.

I was just wondering if there was any way to have the play screen (& therefore the video) appear within the post, rather than have the viewer need to duck out to youtube to watch the video.

Thanks again.



Kind regards
Mick

I don't think there's an option on BCUK to directly link to a video, I think the only way to do it is to add a link to the URL.

Could be wrong though :)

Rich is right as far as I know. The forum doesn't allow us to use HTML code in our posts.

If you host the vids on Photobucket and copy / paste the code in your post it will appear as vid. If you host them you can only put up a link to the vid on YouTube.

G'day Guys

Thanks for the answers.

I'll just add the links to the videos as suggested.



Kind regards
