Meta: Embedding video... how is it done on comments?
I've frozen a thread or two by copying and pasting the embed info from youtube. I'm the worst. Someone please teach me to be a better man.
Edit: Thanks!

Switch to plain text editor and post the embed code. It normally doesn't show up for me the first time, I have to refresh.

Click the box that says "use old embed code" (on youtube), paste into the plain text editor. Iframes don't work for some reason.

Anyone know how to get the "starts at" option to work? Checking the box (on youtube) doesn't seem to do anything for me

At the end of your youtube link, add an '&' and 'start=' however many seconds into the video you want it to start at.
For this video I posted of Burke's finish in the Ohio game, to start at 11:04 into the video (664 seconds) I changed the value for both value and src in the embed code:
value="http://www.youtube.com/v/9SDweePDCfI&start=664"
src="http://www.youtube.com/v/9SDweePDCfI&start=664"
So the final code looked like this:
<object height="315" width="560"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/9SDweePDCfI&start=664" /><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><embed allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/9SDweePDCfI&start=664" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560"></embed></object>
And, voila!
It's sunday night on RCMB... Right???

Thanks! I was looking for this but couldn't find it under the MGoBoard or Useful Stuff tabs on the site. I was trying to embed a video from facebook and tried switching to plain text, pasting the link, and then switching back and nothing showed up. I'll try again though

It's working now! That's a couch from last night a friend of mine video taped in East Lansing. Thanks for the help!
