How this came about is I've been talking to a couple of guys who do really nice videos about documenting a rally car build. "Project Syncro" on YouTube. They are home-made videos, but really nice production quality. I'm trying to improve my ability to do that kind of thing.

Video documentation seems to be on the rise, especially for things like "Build Diaries" that we do here. I was asking Kyle about posting the "auto play", or "preview" type video links. I think it's a lot better looking, and gets a better response if a video can be embedded right into a forum post, as opposed to having to go off-site to see the video. Kyle seems to know his stuff pretty well, and described to me the html and "embed code" links necessary to do that kind of thing.
I figured I'd give it a try here, but couldn't get it to work. My limited research and knowledge indicates that there are functions within the forum that have to be "turned on" in order to allow html codes to be utilized.
I'll see if I can find a link.
Steve.
