So, lets say you want to post this super rad video of your '29 roadster setting a record at Bonneville. You've already uploaded the video to YouTube or Vimeo and now you want to post it on the H.A.M.B. so that all your buddies can see your heroism. Easy. Step 1. Copy the link to the video like so: Step 2. Create a thread and click on the media icon like so: Step 3. A popup window will display. Paste your address into the window like so: Step 4. Press "Embed." Done. The result will be this:
Do they have to be on You Tube or Vimeo first? Can I take one from my photobucket and put it on the H.A.M.B.?
I think at one time you could but with the latest Photobucket debacle and new pay to play policy you ether cough up 400 bucks or it's a no go. HRP
I apologize for reviving a long dead thread, but I can’t figure this out with the search tool, and maybe I’m not the only one who is curious. I’m looking at this thread via an iPhone, as a lot of folks probably do these days, and the YouTube videos are all showing up in “portrait” orientation, where as most YouTube video thumbnail images are meant to be presented in “landscape”. I’m not sure if this is simply a byproduct of the device that I am using to look at the HAMB, or if it would appear the same way on a desk top computer. Assuming the latter, is there a way to change the embed window size so that the videos present within the thread in the “landscape” format? Thanks!
Trying to embed....help! I follow the straight forward instructions as outlined in this post but get an error message: Here is what I am copying into the field "Enter media URL:" https://youtube.com/shorts/LxgADWo4V4A The error message I get "The specified URL cannot be embedded as media." Any ideas? Thanks, Kurt
Hello, Is it one video that you are trying to post? It seems like when you copy someone else's post from another source. You drag all of those videos into play. Copy which one you want to see and paste it on a Word Document to work with it. You may have to get permission to edit You Tube videos to copy and post his/their original series of videos. Sometimes when you try to post that edited version on your You Tube channel, it will only allow you to load a link and not show up on your channel as an original created video. You can still post a link with the shortened video, but it is not your original one, so perhaps You Tube is doing a copyright thing. Jnaki The better thing than to copy someone else's video is to go make an original one of your own. Film it digitally, save to your own files. Then you have a link to make a You Tube video. The original movie on your file can be seen on your computer, but cannot be posted to any website. A You Tube link can if you copy it as is... one letter off will not post. YRMV You have to make a You Tube or other video source first. Then you will have a direct link to post anywhere, on any website or email address. It is not HAMB but, the copied link with different internal links already posted. Note: Some, not all You Tube links bring along advertisements. Most of us do not want to see copied videos with advertisements associated with it. They get the money, you don't. So, make your own original video and then there should not be a problem with posting.
I’ve embedded videos before, it’s been a while. Followed exactly everything in tutorial can’t seem to get it to work. The Video is my original, nothing copied. The YouTube link/url is this: When I insert it per instructions this is what appears instead of the video: Any suggestions?
