Title speaks for itself.
I saw someone doing this, but I can't figure out how to, and I don't remember who it was, otherwize I'd just PM them.
So, don't nessiarily need an admin to answer this one, just anyone who knows...
How do I get YouTube vids to play in my posts?
Thanks,

OK, this is a bit complicated.
First, you start with this>
Now, you take the code of the video. What is the code? Whatever it says after the v= part.
Video link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHmvkRoEowc
Code: kHmvkRoEowc
Then after the youtube tag, you put in the code, and then this >
OK, so here is the final product. Just take out the quotations and that's what it looks like: ["youtube"]kHmvkRoEowc[/"youtube"]

Thanks. Is there any way to control the borders and viewing window size like with the embed codeing, or is that fixed with vBulletin?

Unfortunately you cannot edit the size or borders as that requires different html settings. However if an administrator knows how to it may be possible to do, but right now it isn't.

Not complicated a'tall.
Just copy the end of a youtube link after the v= (for example: http://www.youtube.com/v=456728ge367d
then you manually write out [youtube]<paste end of link here>[ /youtube]
