Embedding videos

What is the proper way to embed videos from Youtube? I copied the embed code and pasted it into my post. The end
result was that my post showed the embed code but not the video as I had expected.

Nevermind, I found my answer

I am having the same problem. What did you find out was the problem.
I tried embedding some videos in this post https://www.hdforums.com/forum/road-...ml#post7525603 but all I see is Code.

John,

Thanks for emailing me with the help using the code. I did test the Youtube version I did in the testing section and it did work. I got a new Contour GPS camera and wanted to share how great a video it shoots and it also maps your route and shows speed and elevation.

Right now all those GPS files are only show on the www.contour.com site and they only have a embed code. I am going to contact them and let them know people can't use the embed code on forums. If you want to see my videos showing GPS data you can check them out here www.contour.com/users/dave28

Here is a clip I edited and posted on youtube. It is shot at 720p HD

Thanks again,
Dave
