It seems like a lot of people that are posting Youtube videos these days are not embedding them properly and that's probably down to the fact that the auto-embed software is currently not working.
When posting a video you have to put the Youtube tags around the videos. You'll have to take the stars out of the BB tags when you go to use them.

Now to save you the hassle of typing out the BB tags, there is a button which has been installed to give these tags with only one click. When you're making a new thread you can find it near all of the bold, underline and font size buttons and drop downs. It's that simple!
Thanks guys and this should make watching the videos that you post much easier!

BBCode is directly linked with HTML, therefore its a subcode to HTML. Kthxbai.

iKron im not trying to be a dick and prove you wrong or anything, but:
"BBCode was devised to provide a safer, easier and more limited way of allowing users to format their messages. Previously, many message boards allowed the users to include HTML formatting, a side effect of which was that malformed HTML could disrupt the page's layout, or HTML could be used to run JavaScript leading to XSS attacks. Some implementations of BBCode have suffered problems related to the way they translate the BBCode into HTML, which could negate the security that was intended to be given by BBCode. An alternative is a properly written HTML filter (many of which are freely available)."
Haha newfags can't YouTube.
I always type out the code in quick reply, because im too lazy to use my mouse to click advanced reply.

Thanks for making this post bacon,
I actually just took the time to figure out why the hell the auto-embedding stopped working, and after fooling around with it for a bit I've fixed it. It also now embeds the videos in widescreen
