What's the deal with Youtube's shortened URL

[Brian R]

I'm not able to post the shortened URL here to make the vide appear in the post.

I'm usually pretty good about figuring this stuff out. I may actually have to do a Google search about it. :shock:

It's happening on my blogs as well so I know it's not just a Mikey's Board thing.

Anyone having this problem?

What the hell do I have to change to change it?

You have to go back to the top URL. Just make sure you haven't hit a subscribed URL or a play list but copy an individual YouTube URL.

I tried the page url as well. Didn't work

I believe Harper was having the same problem in another thread...I tried to fix it and couldn't.

First vid I came across

Well I'll be....It worked this time.
