Always had trouble posting YouTube videos

Has nothing to do with the work DickEm is doing, I just can't get a Youtube video to post. I hit the icon, post the URL and this comes up:

https://youtu.be/IPtv14q9ZDg"> https://youtu.be/IPtv14q9ZDg" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355">


And here's the HD icon:

https://youtu.be/IPtv14q9ZDg&fs=1&hd=1" width="858" height="508">https://youtu.be/IPtv14q9ZDg&fs=1&hd=1" />https://youtu.be/IPtv14q9ZDg">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=https://youtu.be/IPtv14q9ZDg



Any ideas? I've tried removing the url tags that get placed on there, still nothing.
Neither can I. I use the youtubeHD link here (using the part AFTER the "=" in a youtube video link in the brackets) in messages, then copy and paste. A link shows, but not the video itself. It didn't used to be that way. What gives?

Where YoutubeID is the Youtube View ID.

Nothing to it.

I typed it in, using the right brackets, still get that error. It still adds "[ url] & [ /url]" when I post it.

Tried using the url from the browser, NOPE.

Just noticed it too. Even effected my recent reviews as well.
When you post, do you see the same stuff like I have posted above?

No it was a little different. I posted the same way Moka suggested [YOUTUBE ]YoutubeID[/YOUTUBE]. Now looking back it's completely blank...trying to find a work around or a fix, but no luck so far.
Has anyone actually seen a video posted on eccie since this started 4-5 days ago? If so can you link it to me? thanks

I can't see anything...

Just got confirmation... It's a Google Chrome thing, DITCHEM!

Thank you for letting us know. Going to use a different browser too for now on.
Well crap.
