I think this would be a great feature, it would be really good if it was implemented.

May or may not work, but hopefully it will :)

I've seen it on a few other forums and it seems to work great. you would have to make up some rules for it though such as, one embed per forum it works like a [img] thing with the url its something like link

Probably limit it to 2 or 3, because in many cases people want to post a couple of videos. But whatever it is, a limit would be needed lol.

Patchy

Yeah, certainly it would be good for the youtube corner

Not bad? It's fucking brilliant :)

Patchy

Mmm not bad.

I would set limits on how many videos embedded per thread, there was a site that let it as many as you can and it went all slow and the forums crashed a lot I think :S

There is a bit more to it than just adding it, it has to be tested, we have to limit it etc.

Aηdy
March 8th, 2008, 07:09 PM
Oh yes, I do apologise :)

Patchy
March 8th, 2008, 07:12 PM
hehehehehe, I just added it on my forum

Aηdy
March 8th, 2008, 07:22 PM
Lol, how long did it take?!

Patchy
March 8th, 2008, 07:26 PM
2 minutes, he needs to make rules up, seeming as my forum only has 5 members currently coz its not open I dont really need to make rules yet...but its easy as pie to install. testing is easy, but rules and testing how many videos are allowed in a thread without lag, is hard.

It seems like a good idea. I think we could pull it off. But there has to be a certain size amount of how much the video is in bites.

so then we won't have a complete overload and a limit of how many you can post in one post

Underground_Network
March 16th, 2008, 03:07 PM
I prefer bytes over bites. :lol3:

Just to inform you guys, the Admins are working on a way to restrict the amount of You Tube videos being posted and other technicalities. Also more important tasks need to be carried out first before going ahead with testing this.

Now I have a question. My laptop's performance isn't exactly all that great, so if there are like 10 videos on one page, is that going to affect speed, quality, etc. of my browser? Because video files can be kind of large.

Triple7
April 28th, 2008, 06:45 PM
As long as you don't play all 10 videos simultaneously, you should be fine.

[youtube*]the letters at the end of url (i.e. http://youtube.com/watch?v=Tcb9VCgrYbQ)[/youtube*]

Take out the stars and put the letters that are in bold in between the [][/]

Though the letters would be different depending on what video you wanted to post*
