When I embed a video from youtube and click "submit post", the url just gets embedded automatically. However, if I then edit the post, it does some parsing on the url and comes up with some crap. For example: This shows up fine, because I entered it manually during the edit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOYZtZYaHEY&feature=player_embedded"]YouTube - LittleBigPlanet | Subterranean Setbacks [1P/Hard] by rtm223 | Gameplay [Part 2 of This is what happens after editing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOYZtZYaHEY&feature=player_embedded"]YouTube - LittleBigPlanet | Subterranean Setbacks [1P/Hard] by rtm223 | Gameplay [Part 2 of (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOYZtZYaHEY&feature=player_embedded%22]YouTube%20-%20LittleBigPlanet%20%7C%20Subterranean%20Setbacks %20[1P/Hard]%20by%20rtm223%20%7C%20Gameplay%20[Part%202%20of)

Sorry for the double post, I was just testing.

Check this out. I disabled auto-embed (from now on, anyway) and added a new way for us to show YouTube videos. Just wrap [youtube] tags around any YouTube video link, and one click will load it in a pop-up litebox. Try it out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vc_u27KKi24 If it doesn't work, hard-refresh (ctrl-F5) the page and try again.

I know you are still testing it, but I'm getting a weird white box in the lower right: http://www.lbpcentral.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=1582&stc=1&d=1256179497

Yeah, that's from having the CometChat chat window open at the same time. I'm looking at ways of fixing it right now.

Test. (and shameless plug ) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iT_kLtHwAKo Edit: Is there a way to change the text on the link? It does not appear so.

HD and fullscreen have been enabled as well for all YouTube videos that support it. I was not able to fix the overlay issue, but it seems it will only happen when a cometchat window is open, which, to be honest, won't happen often anyway because you can't really watch a video and chat at the same time.

New Update: The [youtube] tag now supports a custom title. If you type this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vc_u27KKi24 You'll get this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vc_u27KKi24 But if you type this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vc_u27KKi24 You'll get this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vc_u27KKi24 It's a lot better now, I think, since you can customize the title if you want, but if you don't it'll add a generic title in its place for you. erm slight problem now Youtube videos arent allowed on Social groups EDIT:: Or Profiles It won't embed anymore, but that's something we actually wanted because it can be an unnecessary load on users who don't want to load the content. Now, those who want to watch the content can easily do so, while those who aren't interested don't have to worry about the YouTube video slowing page load times. I have rebuilt the post cache, though, so all old videos using the [youtube] tag will function as expected. For those videos that don't work anymore, there's not much I can do to fix it on my end, but it should be fairly easy for you to go in and change them to use [youtube] tags.

I like this new format. It seems to work well.

The old tag seems to be incompatible with the new version now. I had to edit my blog entry to replace [YOUTUBE]abcdef123 into http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abcdef123 in order for it to work. I assume any older use of the [YOUTUBE] tag will similarly not work.
