How do you post a You Tube clip?

Hi,

how do you get the You Tube window and not just a link to appear in a post?

Thanks

Go to the YouTube video you want to post and click on 'Share'.
A little box appears under the video with a pile of gumph in it: [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=we55QQcsvY4"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=we55QQcsvY4[/url]
Copy the part from v= (so you have v=we55QQcsvY4)

On the BassChat posting page you just type: (youtube)v=we55QQcsvY4(/youtube)

You must use square brackets though (I used rounded ones so you could see them!)

Last time I tried that it didn't work and it kept telling me I had to watch it on Youtube. Maybe it was down to the specific video.

If you put the entire URL in (i.e. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=we55QQcsvY4)"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=we55QQcsvY4)[/url] then it will do that.
You need to make sure that you trim everything out of the URL so you are just left with the part that looks like v=we55QQcsvY4
