Tips/tricks posting U-tube video?

[Guest]

it seems using the "pop out" for posting a flash video, after pressing view more button on the editing bar, i have difficulty getting a you tube link to properly display.

like:
[flash=320,240]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6tFuD9MbVMM&feature=player_embedded[/flash]
is blank.
what am i missing?

I believe you need the URL from the old embed code: http://www.youtube.com/v/6tFuD9MbVMM

You can get this by opening the embed options and checking the box to display the old code. Then copy out the URL, stripping out the query string parameters if you want. Alternatively, just remember that you replace "/watch?v=" with "/v/"
