Topic Wiki

If your video is not embedding, see if your link starts with "http:" - if it does, change it to "https:" and it will work.

If a video isn't embedded you should assume it may be inappropriate for some people.

How do I embed a Youtube video?
Simply post the YouTube URL.
Alternately (actually, this may no longer work):
Click the "youtube" button on the second row on the furthermost left side.
You will now have the words: [youtube][/youtube] in your editor.
Now, copy and paste the youtube video id (youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0&x=y) in between the middle brackets in order for it to look like this:
    [youtube]oHg5SJYRHA0[/youtube]
and leave out this part of the link: "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v="

Or you can paste the YouTube link, highlight it, and then click on the "YouTube" button. This will encase the link in the youtube tags,
Now just click "post" and you're done!


How can I search if a video has been posted here before?
This is not foolproof, but it's a good start.
Search for the youtube ID (youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0)

WOW! I wonder how much the whole show cost? and how were the musicians able to continue playing without being distracted? In the beginning I was wondering about the Christmas tree affect until I realized that red/white/green are the colors of the UAE flag

I just came back from Philly, where they also have New Year's Eve fireworks. It was nice, certainly nothing on the Macy's July 4th fireworks. Then I see Melbourne's show on youtube, and now Dubai's here and I'm thinking, I picked the wrong city.

ETA: I would point out though, that the Dubai show seems like it would be difficult to fully appreciate in person, you can't really see it all well from the ground. Most places do it over a river (the bridge is the centerpiece in the Melbourne show) or other open space so that the viewers are set a ways back from the fireworks.

+1 in this case a helicopter would probably be best
