Embedding videos


blanco

Question

The URL to embed a YouTube clip needs to be in this sort of format;

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEroekNww8k

It doesn't matter if it's http or https but it needs to be in that format. Any other sort of shortened format will just appear as a link and not as an embedded video.

Same problem as paranoid android. It's automatically embedding it as a link rather than a video: The Real Voice of Darth Vader...hilarious! - YouTube

This is after pasting the link to a notepad file, copying it again, then posting it:

Seems a bit of a pain in the arse. I was trying to post a tweet the other day and it did the same thing, seems like a problem with all links. I've tried two different browsers too (Edge & Chrome)

Are you posting tweets and videos using "paste" rather than "paste as plain text", the options you get on chrome? The fact that it works after using notepad would suggest that's where you're going wrong.
