Trekkie99 Posted May 10, 2017 Posted May 10, 2017 How do I imbed YouTube videos? Or is this something only higher ranking members can do? Quote
Peppermint_M Posted May 11, 2017 Posted May 11, 2017 You can simply copy the URL and paste it into the new post box. All I did was paste https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=45Cv0XFYaRM Into the new post window. Quote

Expand I think it's just the box where you make your post/comment, so where I am typing right now. You can just paste the link and it turns into a video for you - no hassle at all.

Peppermint_M Posted May 11, 2017 Posted May 11, 2017 The box you type a reply into. I got that video into my post by pasting the URL from youtube as part of my reply. Quote

tmctiger Posted May 24, 2017 Posted May 24, 2017 Hy Guys, I have a very strange problem: I suddenly be unable to insert images with "Insert other media" - "Insert Image from URL". When I try so, the box just gets a red border and nothing happens. When copying the link directly in the box where I write my post, I get following Error message: "The link could not be embedded because there is no image at that URL." This is definitely wrong! There are jpg-pictures behind the links. For example this link: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/tmctiger/LLayout/Plans/alternativeLayout/WIP/bridge/small/small_img_0045.jpg If you click on the link, you'll see it works perfectly, just the board software doesn't recognize it anymore?! Btw.: inserting images always worked for me just fine. I noticed the problem when posting an update in my WIP - Layout thread: As you can also see in this thread, inserting images always worked fine. I am now a little helpless and have no idea what I can do that this works again for me. Additional information: no recent changes to my computer system, I am using Firefox 53.0.2. (64bit) on a Windows 7 ultimate. I hope someone can help me or give me a hint how to fix this. Thanks in advance and BR, Guenther Quote
mocbuild101 Posted May 25, 2017 Posted May 25, 2017 (edited) I have no idea why that is happening, but for the moment you can just drag the image from the linked page into the post like this: You can see that it works like that! (I resized the full size image down to 500px wide) Edited May 25, 2017 by mocbuild101 Quote

Trekkie99 Posted May 25, 2017 Posted May 25, 2017 (edited) Strange, the link works for me. And as mocbuild101 said, I did the same to copy and paste. Edited May 25, 2017 by LegoMonorailFan Quote

On Kindle youtube links load as m.youtube.com, which won't work here. You have to click the share button on the YouTube video and copy and paste the link here. That should work. Quote

(I resized the full size image down to 500px wide) Expand But this is then equal to uploading an image directly to Eurobricks? And then it is under the constraint of 0.08MB total upload per post? Am I right. On 5/25/2017 at 5:27 AM, Darkdragon said: There appears to be no image, i only get an error message. Might be a brickshelf problem. Expand Hmm, this is strange since I can see the image behind the link, even when I am not logged into Brickshelf. On 5/25/2017 at 6:35 PM, Darkdragon said: Yesterday your link did the same thing. Now I can see yours embedded in the post and @LegoMonorailFan link now works but isn't showing up as embedded. Expand That is even more strange. It seems that other people can embed the image behind the link, just I can't ... I just tried to add an (older) image to this post (an older image I already linked successfully in Eurobricks (http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/tmctiger/LLayout/Plans/alternativeLayout/WIP/ballast/small/small_img_9300.jpg) an it still doesn't work. Also the newer ones still don't work. I have now tried to insert the images as I always did with the "Insert other media" button and dropping the link just plain into the text box ... it didn't work anymore for me I don't believe this is a Brickshelf problem, since linking these images in other forums (1000steine.de and doktor-brick.de) just works fine. It seems to also make problems at doktor_brick.de: for me it works fine there, but some random users also can't see the images, other user on the other hand can see them ... thats very very strange. Perhaps something went wrong during the Brickshelf migration to another hoster? Has anyone contact to the Brickshelf guys so that they be aware of the problems?
