I don't think this site support video embedding. What I did above is just to add a screenshot of the embedding in a link to YouTube. I did that because I was afraid that the video would drown in all the (boring) programming code I was pasting in the previous posts. and so I wanted it to stand out and look like a video.

How I did it:
1. Upload the video to YouTube
2. Copy the embed code from YouTube
3. Paste the embed code into "TryIt Editor" - http://www.w3schools.com/html/tryit....=tryhtml_basic
4. Take a screenshot
5. Crop the screenshot to only include the image of the embedded player
6. Upload the player screenshot to my image server
7. Add the image to the forum post
8. Add a link to the video on YouTube around the image (e.g. [ url= ..] [ img=.. [ /img ] [ /url ] ) so that the image becomes clickable.


Quite a few steps. Not sure if I'm going to do it again. :-)


Best regards,
Stein :-)
