I had some Chai Tea while I watched the Tai Chi.
Good one

And another test with Option #2:
Thanks Rod!

I tried both the link that Penguin provided and Rod's hack. Both seem to work but Rod's displayed the larger screen size.
Problem is I have a hard time seeing them on my PC (I am in the process of downloading the latest Flash Player upgrade to see if the helps.) I also noticed that neither play on my Android phone.
Neil
Mine works better because the embed code gives me the correct size parameters. The other site just defaults to a preset size unless you chage the numbers.
Google may want to push the iframe version which is dangerous to allow because they may be able to change the code base and use HTML5 or other tricks to get it to work on iPhones and others without flash.

Didn't you believe that I hacked in a fix?
-Rod
Much appreciated.
Why do so many sites insist on improving things, when in reality, all it does is foul things up?
That's why I love the Asylum. Nothing ever improves around here. Err, well, you know what I mean. [inane smiley thing]
Thank you again.
it was not working for me at the GD when I found that site and tried to work it. I used the EMBED code and this time I tried the SHARE code. I am sure you saw my failed efforts yesterday...Today all better.
I found that site by searching Google for "use old embed code" It was at the top of the returns.
Are you saying you did something on the code at AA to allow it to work?
If so, great....
Yes. I added a parser to take the current, iframe version of the embed code on Youtube and extract the data and convert it to the old embed code that uses an object call.
Just copy and paste.
-Rod
The size is totally wrong if you just use the share link. My parser does it properly using the embed code from Youtude.
See the difference?
-Rod
I am confused. I used the linky under the video and tried the EMBED code. It does not give up a postable code. Only the SHARE option does. Folks can always hit the full screen button to see it large...
I get this when I used the EMBED code...hopefully the link will show you what EMBED gets me
EDIT, nope it disappeared...
Anyway your tech explanation has me baffled....

The link does only work with shared code, not embeded. To get the shared code to look right, you have to change the size parameter. Basically, it's a half assed utility.
My hack uses the actual Youtube embed code and you just paste it over here and it work right because I get the size parameter from the Youtube embed code.
Just try doing Share, Embed and paste it here.
-Rod
and all is peaceful now!
I found it necessary to select the old style embedded code.

That's the problem. Google took away the old embed code check box.
-Rod
Went to Google. Found only one form of embed code. It seems to work.

Prior to adding my hack, you would have gotten an error message that iframes aren't allowed. I added a parser to convert the iframe call to the old object embed code. It will only work properly for youtube videos.
Otherwise, iframes still aren't allowed.
