You really need to post some pics..

Focal are excellent speakers! You have some good taste my friend. How does it sound?

Looks like it may have to do with timing. From what I understand, you can paste the link, but, it takes a few seconds for it to resolve with YouTube and create the embedded player automatically. If you click submit before the process finishes, then you'll see only a link. I made a change to the server to allow more buffer time before it updates, so, this problems should be reduced. On your side, please give it a few seconds to load the video before you submit the post to the forum and you may see this start working better.

It worked!!! What did you change?

Hmm, doesn't look like a permissions limitation in the user-group. Both long URL (copied from the URL bar) and the short URL (from the share link on Youtube) both seemed to work. The embed code didn't work but isn't what we are testing. I've got this escalated to see what I can do to fix it...

yea, I am seeing only links when you post these. It "should" be converting the link to an embedded player right after you paste it. Not sure why it's not working for just your account (it looks like). I'm going to try and do this from one of my standard user accounts to see if it's a permissions thing. m

Yea this is strange one. What kind of operating system and browser are you using?

Just looked at my neighbors car. I'm not a big Porsche fan, but, this would make me convert. Very nice car!

Ok, looks like it's working. But, @bartsscooterservice seems to be doing something that is causing only links to show up. I'll have to understand his setup and process to post these links.

This is also embedding the player, for me at least.

Here I am going to try posting a link using the link provided in the "share" feature from Youtube. Note the URL is totally different than when I simply copy the URL. https://youtu.be/lDkr2qm6VbQ

It's supposed to embed a player into the post automatically. Can you go to this link so we can test it (I don't want to hijack this thread):

Looks like this is embedding the player for me if I use the standard reply box. Can some of you guys try it out and let me know how you copied the link? Make sure that "Source" is not selected in the upper left of your reply window.

Testing copy/paste of the youtube URL so I can embed player. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDkr2qm6VbQ

This is just a test https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDkr2qm6VbQ I added this using the "source" button on the upper left of my message. Looks like anytime you use source, it will not embed the player.
