This is just me figuring out how to post a video.

Well that did not work What did I do wrong

[stefan]

i might be wrong, but i think the "youtube" option only works with youtube and not other video streaming. acca or sombeech might enlighten us.

but you can always just post the link ... but i agree, embedding it into the page is a really nice feature

Well that did not work
any suggestions?

[stefan]

well, when i tried that video link, btw, it says the video is no longer available

but you should only need to do the following


http://www.youtube.com/v/Wx8R8R0KdI4

which produces ...

http://www.youtube.com/v/Wx8R8R0KdI4

probably because it is not available.

The video you have requested is not available.

If you have recently uploaded this video, you may need to wait a few minutes for the video to process.

[stefan]

so that creek in the google video ... did you film that?

[DiscGo]

It is fun to watch this thread progress. You are really close. Don't give up!

[DiscGo]

You know what? Sometimes the youtube videos just take a couple of minutes to load, you might still be okay.

Hey ScoutMaster, are you able to view it yourself directly on YouTube?

Looks like you got it. You just put the youtube tag at the beginning and end of the URL, where your video is located on youtube. Looks like youtube is giving the following message. "The video you have requested is not available. If you have recently uploaded this video, you may need to wait a few minutes for the video to process." You can see this by clicking the link below the youtube video on uutah.

It looks like youtube is processing the video and it should work once its done. Also, as stefan mentioned, the tags only work with youtube URL's. :popcorn:

YEA I did it
As you can see I am no Techno Genus I am just an old guy who likes to hike and shoot pictures. My life took a new course in Feb 04 when I got my first digital camera. A Kodak 5.0 mega pixel capable of video clips. I don't think the .MOV format would even work on most video players back in 04. but it seems to now.
This Video clip was shot in May 04 up Baer canyon above Fruit Heights (Davis County) Baer Canuon is known for the Baer Gutsman run. I personally love the sound of running water It seems to south the soul.
