YouTube Video Plugin for VBulletin

[xcali1985]

I was wondering if you guys would consider adding this. It would allow us to provide easy and seemless video examples to the forums instead of having to offlink to youtube.
heres an example:

One perhaps unnoticed benefit would be that we wouldn't have to worry about the comments on there, profanity, etc, since just the video embeds, and no one really go to the actual youtube page where the comments are.

Yeah, why not? I mean you can just post links to these things anyway...

We'll look into this when we do the next update.

If you guys do decide to go with this plugin please make sure that the default auto play is disabled. I've seen admins overlook this option and the worst thing you need is a page with 5 movies loading and playing at the same time. Will slow overall load time. With it disabled should be no different than a pic loading.

Any idea if this is going to be intergrated. I saw the board go down for a while a some time ago. Is this still being considered?

I have used this on other vBulletin boards and it is a GREAT feature. As stated before, it keeps us from seeing comments and stuff and you can just watch the video in the thread without leaving the site. Great addition imho.
