Have you tried viewing embedded YT vids from a different mobile device?

Cheers. Yeah a couple. It's not just my phone, was doing it on my old one and this was brand new about 2 months ago. Definitely not my phone.

What I mean with embedding is for example:

This won't play and I have no way of viewing it unless I quote the post, copy and paste the text and then type http://youtube.com/watch=v? and paste it after that into my browser. That is hassle though.

This however works:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y3BxHUoF2fw

When I post videos, I just post the full url, and not the video ID thingy into Youtube tags, and you get the url embedded under it so even though the video won't play I can click the url and it will open in the Youtube app.

Does this make sense?

Anyway, was wondering if it was possible to have that same url thingy when you embed videos like in the first example.

I get the same thing on my phone (just checked it). It's a code translation issue when the site is called up from a mobile device. Not sure if the owners want to pony up the ducketts for porting it over to a mobile version, so you may be out of luck.

After some digging, it looks like this has been a problem for a while.

Has anyone else been getting booted off the forum today? It's happened a few times where the page won't load at all for an hour or two. It's not my internet, because this is the only site that does it.

Recently threads I've already read hours or days ago are being displayed in the New Posts section.
What's up with that?
