how to embed a youtube vid

Select vid (duh)

Under vid press share , then embed then show more

A smaller vid appears , work from this now

Drag click two words on left (preview & video ) so only they are blue

Click on size select same size click to confirm

Hover mouse over vid press Ctrl & c then Ctrl & v

Vid now ready to paste

cool!

great stuff , a handy ability i use vids alot in vc , match notes etc , a great resource in a multi media world

cant get this to work! 

ok kr just let us know what steps you did , the usual mistake is the drag and click on preview and video ( to left of smaller vid), so only they are blue

It didn't work. 

a possible problem might be the video source , it works for youtube and i think also vevo

maybe its also a no go with v3 , i use v2 chess.com

I thought everybody used V2.

hi riley i know many whove switched to v3 , i dont like my homepage on v3 tho so im v2 till i got to change

just testing see if i can get it to work zborris       

zborris i think you didnt get size confirm click , prior to ctrl c and ctrl v

as the vid works but is smaller

good choice of vid btw

Ah, that worked! 

Thanks for your help, ANOK1!  

glad to share the info , as we all benefit from knowledge
