    Basically what you need to do is play (select) the video you want once it has loaded, copy the address at the top of the page and then post it here "youtube" either side of the link of course :)

    Thanks! I see in your code that there is a slightly different url. I'm working off a mobile device, so that could be the mess up.

    Interesting. Okay, so one last (?) question. When you are on your iPad do you go through the Youtube app, or do you go to the full website?

    Oh dear. I just realized that there is probably a thread for this already. Sorry all.

    You see that "m" at the beginning of the URL? As in m.youtube.com? That means it is a mobile app link and won't work. If copying the link from a device instead of a computer, you can just change that "m" to "www" and it should work - with the BBCode

    Thanks for the info. Looking forward to adding some video now.
    Sure wish there were more Simpson's clips / shows out there. Anyone found a website to watch old old old shows?
