As far as I know you can't embed videos directly to the forum.

You need to put your video up on a hosting site like YouTube.
Then post a link on here to that video.

It's the YouTube video player (like you just embedded) that won't post for me.
All I can post is the long *** embedding link... no player.

Well, all I did was post the link to the video, and the forum software did the rest.

What my post looked like as I wrote it:




Here is how I got the link from YouTube.
Open the video on YouTube, and then copy the URL.
Then pasted that URL into the post here.
