Is there a way?
 
Code:
<object classId="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="480" height="418" id="VideoPlayerLg51360"><param name="movie" value="http://www.g4tv.com/lv3/51360" /><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><embed src="http://www.g4tv.com/lv3/51360" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" name="VideoPlayer" width="480" height="382" allowScriptAccess="always" allowFullScreen="true" /></object><div style="margin:0;text-align:center;width:480px;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;font-size:12px;color:#FF9B00;"><a href="http://www.g4tv.com/" style="color:#FF9B00;" target="_blank">Video Game</a> - <a href="http://www.g4tv.com/e32011" style="color:#FF9B00;" target="_blank">E3 2011</a></div>
is there a way to post embedded videos with codes like this one? I think there used to be a way but I can't remember it at the moment.

Not that I know of. This is the only forum that I post on that has Youtube tags where you input only the video's ID. One forum that I post on uses the embedding code you mention, with no tags at all. You just paste the embed code into the post itself. I believe it's also a vBulletin site, but the admin has obviously put in different settings. A second forum is one made on Zetaboards, and to embed videos there you use flash tags and put the entire URL in them, i.e. [FLASH]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JErVP6xLZwg[/FLASH]. I don't know if having either of those options on MB would be any quicker than what we already do to embed videos.

oh okay. Well I guess I will just post the link to the source of the video. I guess I was thinking of another forum then but I thought it was this one a couple of years ago that we could embed videos like that one up there.

The weird thing is MB used to let you put the entire embed code between the Youtube tags and it would work... that's how I used to do it all the time, until it stopped working one day.

That is weird. It's not a huge deal for me. The embed code really just lets you pick the size of the player and if you want to put a coloured border around it to make it look nice. Other than that there's not much of a difference.
