I forgot how to embed a video it's been a long time

1. Post the Youtube link

2. If it's youtube it's easy because the DU forum software understands their link format

For other sources, it can get trickier for sure

3. The YT link addy does not show up on my cellphone...

got the vid and the stuff underneath the imagedry.

(I only have net access through my cell phone)


The one time I did this previously touching the video brought up a string "directions" like "loop"

"Embed" used to be one of them but I don't see that.

4. Doesn't "Copy video URL" work?

5. I'm not sure I saw that... I'll check later

6. I tried right clicking on the video and that option was on the list, and it worked

7. Cool. I only have Internet Access through my smartphone...

I'm going to recheck bc I was watching a vid on YT and
happen to touch the screen and the list that came up had the "embed" direction.

I wonder if it can be deleted by whomever posts the vid in this case by Vemo.

8. Thanks for everyone's help. I'm having success currently posting the vid to my clipboard in ...

a separate tab, then clip board post back onto DU.
Yay me for trying that.
