How do you do this on satelliteguys.us? All forum software is different.

I have seen it done here so I know it can be done.

I have tried several different ways, but none of them work. The most obvisous being copying the html tag info from the youtube page and wrapping html tags around it, but nothing seems to work.

do the bracket YOUTUBE bracket commands and put the YouTube code inbetween. Just like the bold tags work.

I click and copy the embed code from youtube then post it with the html tags around it, but I always get a text box with the raw html code in it like below.

HTML:
<object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/hZAr9E8i3ng&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/hZAr9E8i3ng&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>
 
If I do it without the html tags it looks like this.


<object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/hZAr9E8i3ng&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/hZAr9E8i3ng&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>
 
No just put the you tube ID in the middle.. let me see I can do it by adding the spaces. Take the spaces out

[ YOU TUBE ]hZAr9E8i3ng [/ YOU TUBE ]
 
It would be the hZAr9E8i3ng portion that you would place between the youtube's as digiblur has mentioned above. :)

THAT may be the problem. I can't find the youtube bracket commands.

When I post, I have code, html, php, s, pie, wiki, marq, glow, and shadow bracket command buttons. But no youtube. Is the actual text 'youtube' and '/youbube' with the brackets?

Well I'll give it a try.

[youtube]<object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/hZAr9E8i3ng&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/hZAr9E8i3ng&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>[/youtube]

Well that made the box, but the video is not showing up!

Perhaps since I am a regular member and not a staff member it is not allowing me. I mean, I don't even have the button for the youtube bracket command.
