Taking ages to upload short videos to Youtube?

Nice! Only remember to embed the video

phpBB [video]

I couldcheck out the benefits of 'embedding' video, but perhaps you can spell them out in lay terms.

Don't forget to check your YouTube video comments Roy

One benefit is less clicking and opening new tabs for people on forum

And no adverts

Ahhh...I'll certainly check it out. Just for the benefit of anyone uploading videos to Youtube from a Mac (iMac, in my case), I found that Firefox works perfectly, but Safari (probably because of issues with its restrictive, in-built, security features... ) fell at the last fence, so to speak.
In future, I'll use Firefox instead.

Thanks to Mick, Rad, and Jim for the sympathetic comments. That's team RCTW for you, at its best

Okay, here's another first- my attempt to 'embed' the video (bedding, I'm familiar with, but 'embedding;- not )

phpBB [video]

...and, zilch.

It seems as if the interface for 'embedding' on one's personal channel has changed in the last few years, and so related videos display different procedures for embedding a video. The one Jim sent, I couldn't get to work. However, I managed to find the option to allow embedding- finally- buried in my channel settings. Perhaps Youtube doesn't want it to be as easy as falling off a log...

Here's the vid with embedding enable- I hope.

Full link to the video is needed without "&" any letters sfter that.

Teamwork makes the dream work.

Teamwork makes the dream work.

I'll drink to that, Jim, but not until me default slurp day- Friday! ...and it will be tequila, for a change. Apparently, it was Sean Connery's favourite tipple (but not shaken nor stirred.)
Our highly respected Antipodean, Raminator, will also note that I rotated the barrel through 90 deg
so that the muzzle brake was oriented correctly again. Thanks for the reminder, Dan!.
Teamwork, yep...
