Puck it 314 Posted May 3, 2017 Report Share Posted May 3, 2017 (edited) How the hell do you post videos instead of just linking? Edited May 3, 2017 by Puck it Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The easiest way to do it is to upload it to YouTube. Once it video is uploaded to your YouTube account, you must enable embedding. For a video that you own, edit the video / click on the video from your channel menu. Under the "Advanced Settings" tab, select the "Allow embedding" box under the "Distribution options" category. Once you have uploaded the video and allowed embedding, just copy the URL of the video in a post. The video should automatically embed in the thread. Assuming your YouTube permission is correct, it works like magic! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cannonballer 660 Posted June 22, 2017 Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 FYI @Weatherman Check out the recent thread in the MTB section http://www.northeastmountainsports.com/topic/191-moments-in-time/ It appears that Vimeo video embedding is not working properly in the Android app. Here's what I did and what seems to be working/not working: Started a new thread in the Android app Wrote a few words then pasted a link to a Vimeo video. Once I submitted the thread/post I noticed that the video didn't seem to embed. In fact, I couldn't even see the link that I pasted in. Went and checked it on Chrome mobile browser. It was there and actually embedded perfectly. Same on the Chrome desktop browser. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
