    YouTube is now an option in the post menu.

    To post a YouTube video so it displays, go to YouTube and get the URL.

    Example:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vw3dLtjdXcc

    Then copy the code after the "=" sign.

    Example:
    Vw3dLtjdXcc

    Then paste the code between the YouTube tags. You can get the tags by clicking the YouTube icon from the advanced editing menu.

    Posting high definition and wide screen videos has been enabled.

    Follow the same format for posting [​IMG] YouTube videos but select the [​IMG] option on the edit menu instead.

    * This option only works for HD and wide screen videos.

    Everything was correct except you used the [​IMG] option instead of the [​IMG] option.

    Webmaster,

    Why is it that whenever I click the HD button on YouTube, the video lags??

    My cpu isn't slow 2.4GHZ 1GB RAM but it seems that my video player isn't properly running the video?

    Any ideas, Webmaster?

    I'm sure you know a thing or two about the clocking speeds of these flash players.

    I don't think it's your PC. I think it's just taking longer to buffer. You may try giving it some time to load before letting it play. If you have a high speed connection then the problem is probably with the server that's serving the video.

    A way to confirm this is to download the video to your PC using a browser plug-in (like Download Helper) and then play it using a player like GOM or VLC that will play a .flv file. If it plays smooth on your PC then the problem is most likely what I stated above.

    Sites like YouTube and online players like Adobe flash will probably be upgraded in the near future to resolve this problem for HD and wide screen videos.
