I guess no one else is having any problems posting vids in the video forum? I've never had a problem before and all of a sudden I get the following error:

The following errors occurred:
[Youtube Embed Code] is not valid. Please copy the Embed code from the "Embed" textbox on Youtube or other video sites.

I've emailed support but no one has gotten back to me. very mad very mad very mad

My favourite thing is to post music videos and I can't now! crying crying

Anybody have an ideas what it could be? I mean how hard can it be to copy and paste the embed code? I've tried in both IE and Firefox.

frustrated frustrated frustrated

Try checking "use old embed code" just under the embed code in the drop down box

thumbs up Yes, I discovered that a few days ago, too. Guess youtube has made some changes. But the old embed code will work.

Thanks Sasyecats. That's what it was. I guess I must have some how unticked that box and every video after that the embed code wouldn't work as it was in iframe. I thought it looked different!

Now I can rock on! Thanks! head banger head banger head banger

No, it wasn't anything you did,...it's not the default...I bet a lot of people have been having problems.

I just happened to notice it after a few days of it not working for me anymore.

I bet that in a short time Youtube or CS will clear this up. Youtube might be doing this for legal reasons too. Try googling news stories about Youtube.
