Posting Music Videos
« on: Oct 17, 2013, 10:18:16 AM »



When I choose a video clip and paste the embed code onto the comment box it shows the video playing perfectly. However when I click on POST the video clip no longer shows. (I mean the full video clip and not the link)


Is there a reason for this!  Being able to post full clips surely makes it visually more interesting for viewers.  ;)

I am just experimenting so this seems a good place.  I am trying to post a youtube video so if it doesn't work I would appreciate advice.  Or you could just give the same advice that itsme got 2 years ago ;D ;D ;D ;D

Well it has worked for me, can't remember how I did it though.  It's a good one, but I was really after 10 cc I'm not in Love.

What do you mean by "When I choose a video clip"? Is this a clip on a web page, YouTube or what? If it's a web page or YouTube then you just need to copy/paste its  web address using the hyper link box located under the italic sign top-left when typing:

Itsme posted that query over two years ago CC.  But the advice you gave serves me well.  I think I did something like that but it was dark and I was just guessing about the Control C key.  Liked your "toon" by the way.   I hope others will post some of their favourites here as well.

Your wish & all that.

Thanks Phil.  The first one is a favourite of mine - I could never tire of looking at/listening to Eric Stewart at his peak.  The second was a nice contrast and a good performance [but was it him?].  Thank you again.

It's a shame that actual music videos can't be posted instead of an abstract list of figures from Bletchley Park...maybe the mods might consider this...as some members choices are wonderful.
