How do I go about adding Youtube video clips to a new, or existing thread? Have a couple test clips I'd like to try, but unsure how to add them. Want to participate in the 72 hour Video Challenge this coming weekend. Any help/information much appreciated. Thanks.
YouTube works extremely well with TrainBoard as you can post just the URL of the video and the software that runs TrainBoard will automatically convert it to a YouTube inline player. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QgPhHtHoolk"]YouTube - European Vacation #18[/ame]
Test video An attempt to include a video clip! [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLXYnWyNn0I"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLXYnWyNn0I[/ame] Hoping it works!!
Since last attempt to upload video was still working after a 35 minute wait, I canceled video and went and canceled account totally. Not worth the time/effort.
Depending on the size of the file it can take awhile to upload; even on high speed connections. I started converting my AVI clips to MPG clips just to reduce the size of the file giving up some quality along the way. :tb-nerd: :tb-nerd: :tb-nerd: :tb-nerd:

Just to give you an idea that it does take time to upload video to YouTube; as well as other such video hosting sites. :tb-nerd: :tb-nerd: :tb-nerd: :tb-nerd:
