Uploading video via iPhone 5

Can anyone tell me how I can upload videos through my iPhone or YouTube on my iPhone the embedded vids aren't showing up in my messages just as hyperlinks.

Usually the forum will convert them itself. I think if its a m.youtube.com link it won't convert for you. It needs to be a YouTube.com/ blah blah type link, if that makes any sense.... Lol.

You want to choose share via email then copy the link in the email and that should work. Has nothing to do with your iPhone 5 though its a YouTube and forum combined issue.

This. We have Camaro5 set up so all you have to do is copy/paste the YouTube url into your post/message and it *should* embed it. Note - this doesn't work if the url has the "featured blah blah blah" stuff in it. It needs to be this:





EDIT: weird it's not working for me - this could be because I'm on my work computer though

Alternatively you can use the video ID to embed it. You do this by using the [u2b] [/u2b] tags. Using the above URL, we take 8FU6_2rSC1M and put it inside the tags.

[u2b]8FU6_2rSC1M[/u2b]

This gives us:
