Doesn't look like this forum gets much action, but I'll ask anyway.

Today I noticed if someone posts a YouTube link I don't see the image of the video or the YouTube link ... I always use to.

I'm using the latest version of Firefox and I haven't changed any settings - use to see the YouTube links no problem for last couple of years until now. If I use a different browser like Google Chrome I can see them ... :shrug:

To add, I can see YouTube video links in Firefox on other chat boards ... seems it's just Mustang6G that they don't show up on.

To clarify, when someone indicates they've posted a YT video it appears as completely blank in the post?

Please post a screenshot.

We have been unable to replicate the issue and no changes were made to the forum recently.

Can those of you who are having the issue please try on different computers/browsers to isolate the problem?

Also, anyone else having it please chime in.

Shows for me. You have to copy and paste the whole URL from the browser. Don't copy the link from the share button on YT.

The reason this one shows up the URL and not the embedded video is because it is using the YouTube short link (youtu.be...) instead of the full YouTube URL required for embedding.
Thanks. I edited the post and it shows properly now. I usually use Chrome and Safari.

In Explorer I get a warning message at the bottom of the screen, then get a black box after allowing it to load (snapshot #1 & #2).

In Google Chrome and Firefox I get a white blank space (snapshot #3).

If I do a "Reply" to the post, I can see the YouTube links (snapshot #4), but they will never show up normally like they use to when viewing a thread.
