Can somebody please tell me how to post a youtube video? I used the youtube video buttton when trying to post but it asks for a youtube video number and not a URL.

It took me a while to figure that one out. I'm probably not the best person to ask how to do it but hopefully someone will give that info here.
I also want to know how to embed a video from a different source other than youtube or google video.
thx

thx but that didn't help. what i want to do is post a video from an alternate source other than google or youtube.
thx

I believe you can only embed videos from YouTube and Google.
You can always put a link to the page that the video is on though.

Hope that helps.
