How to Post Videos

[der mechaniker]

Hey V-Dubbers this is pretty straight forward but I thought I'd toss out a quick help section on how to post YouTube and Google videos just in case anyone has a bit too much engine grease in their eyes from a long day in the garage.

First off YouTube: Clickeroo the "youtube" button in the toolbar above the post section (see, I told you that was easy )

Next insert the YouTube video ID string right smack dab in the middle like this (the ID string is the blob of code after the v= in the URL from YouTube.

So the final code string should look like this:

Code: Select all

Next Google Video: Again clickeroo the "googlevideo" button and insert the video ID number right smack dab in the middle. The video ID is the 18 digit number right after docid=- in the URL.
Looks something like this:

Code: Select all

That's about it. Happy Video Posting!
