I am trying to embed YTvideo in my thread.
Can somebody help me find the link?

All you do is copy the embed code, which will look like this:

<iframe width="640" height="360" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/JPC0N0U0aco?feature=player_detailpage" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Then, you back some stuff out, and make it look like this:

//www.youtube.com/embed/JPC0N0U0aco?feature=player_detailpage

Next, you make it look like this:

http://www.youtube.com/embed/JPC0N0U0aco?feature=player_detailpage

Lastly, you do this:

[youtube] http://www.youtube.com/embed/JPC0N0U0aco?feature=player_detailpage [/youtube]

So then, you get this.

It's not that complicated -- just take a normal youtube link:

Simplify it to:
http://www.youtube.com/5w8SQtqZXPw

Now add the "/embed" part:

http://www.youtube.com/embed/5w8SQtqZXPw

Just surround it with [youtube] [/youtube]

If I don't use it for awhile I go back to Matthew's introduction to the feature on this link:

You can always find it at the top of the General Discussions, it is bolded in fact.
