Youtube custom BB code!

[ytube]{TEXT}[/ytube]

Code: Select all

<object width="480" height="295"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/{TEXT}"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/{TEXT}" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="295"></embed></object>
Then (in theory) [ytube]_2eiOCbU5RE[/ytube] - a la code at the end of the linky:
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=_2eiOCbU5RE

Would drop the video straight into the forum.

The one other board I visit that allows for YT embeds seems to load just as fast as Jacurutu or any other site. Not very scientific, I know, but it's all I gots ...

YT embedding would be cool, methinks.

We'll look to see if there is an option to set for actual loads or links. There probably is, but if not...

It'll slow the page loads the same way an image does. Once the initial image in the youtube video loads the video stops loading until you click play.
