shoebop 0 Report post Posted February 6, 2015 I have not tried to embed a video that I have shot myself but I have embedded videos from an online source (YouTube eg.) It is as easy (and the same) as it is to embed a photo. I simply copy and paste the URL from an online video source. Or choose the "more reply options" at the bottom of the reply window. From there you simply click "choose file" (under the heading ATTACH FILES) and chose the video file from your computer you wish to attach. Hope that helps.

mikechell 0 Report post Posted February 6, 2015 www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZjQAGEci1bY Just a test ... I copied the address from the bar across the top of the site screen (youtube). Then I just hit paste on this page. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mikechell 0 Report post Posted February 7, 2015 Yeah ... perhaps it's easier to embed a video from your computer. Noooo ... don't click on it. You'll download a video, which takes a while. So ... doing the link to YouTube or other video sites IS the easiest, for all involved. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
m_grieb 0 Report post Posted February 8, 2015 I know how to post a link, but how do you integrate youtube videos into your post so the reader doesn't have to open up another window? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mikechell 0 Report post Posted February 11, 2015 Try this, M. when you are looking at a Youtube video ... highlight and copy the ENTIRE address in the tracking bar at the top of the page. Then paste that here. When you post it ... it will show up as the actual video ... not the link. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
