You didn't mention that it was your phone earlier. [bang] ;D

It's hard for me to test that as I don't have one.

I will look into it to see if there are known issues with them and the software I recently installed. The one we're using now doesn't repeat the actual vid if you quote, it just posts the link which I think is cleaner looking.

Was it OK before?

No I was saying the iphone, in addition to my pc, don't show the embeded vids.

I can quote a post and the link is there.

Not sure if its the same as on my phone.

One thing that I now just noticed, while there's no vid, there's a clickable link with a description of the vid and it takes me to youtube to watch it.

Everything was fine before on both my pc and iphone.

I think it's just me.

Everything's fine on my work laptop (ironic isn't it?)

I think it's some issue with my home pc.  Though, I don't get why my iphone is the same way as my home pc. . .

Which tells me there's nothing wrong on our end.

Does your work laptop use the same ISP as you do at home?

I agree there's nothing wrong on your end.

Posting from the lapper now, using my wireless network at home.

Things look fine.

The problem I'm having is every vid I click on, it comes up as no longer available.

Is that the same problem as stated previously?  ???

Nope...

He was talking about not having anything to click on.

Post by: Monsterlover on March 19, 2009, 08:05:48 PM
I should mention that on my work laptop, that shows the vids normally, they come up as unavailable when I click on them.

A second click on the vid takes me to youtube where it plays fine.

Still nothing shows up on my home pc or phone.
Title: Re: Embeded videos
Post by: Mother on March 20, 2009, 06:20:29 AM
same issue here, single click says video unavailable, second click takes me to youtube and the video plays. I did notice that using the low quality option let's me watch them embedded
Title: Re: Embeded videos
Post by: ducpainter on March 20, 2009, 06:45:12 AM
I'll see if I can find the old version of auto embed and replace the one we're using now.

I think youtube just switched over to the quality options recently

might be that is the problem?

...is it really a problem?

or

is it just a quirk?

I don't see it as a problem.

It's youse guys that are whining about it. [laugh] [laugh]

If I can find the older version it would be worth a shot to improve the functionality of it. The embedded vids were supposed to make things easier. I liked the new version because it didn't create a page of youtube frames if people kept quoting the original post.

I have been having the same problem for a while. Started maybe a month or two ago.

Before you click the video check the quality setting.

They will not play in the embedded player on HQ+
Title: Re: Embeded videos
Post by: Monsterlover on May 27, 2009, 07:46:03 AM
It's not a quality setting for me. . .

the video is just plain not displayed.

Normally there's the square that contains the still frame from the vid, and a clickable text link under it.

All I can see is the text link, on my pc and i phone.  My work laptop will display the still frame, and I have to switch it off hq+ to make it work.

I'll have to defer to Daryl on that...

cuz I don't know if it's a browser issue...iphone issue..or what.

It all works from my pc.

Sucks to be you...

eh? ;D

This is the same for me.  No still frame image for the videos, and all I see is the link to the YouTube vid at the bottom of a blank post.

I'm using a Windows computer, Firefox 3.0.10

Any resolution (hahaha) to this issue?   

I now have exactly the same thing as described by ML above. 

Its clearly at the user end:  I only have this issue since I began to use this new laptop.  Running W7 Starship 64bit OS, happens just the same regardless of browser.   I can view videos over at YouTube just fine, but not here any more.

Am I missing a flash player?? 

Muchas grassy arse in advance.

That's weird. Is the text that is displayed a link?

It could be a flash issue...I guess.
