New way to embed youtube videos and Soundcloud after the forum update.

HappyKemper · Oct 10th 2014

I noticed that almost all youtube videos posted in the forum threads are not working as embedded after the recent kemper forum update.
Previously we could use the [/YOUTUBE] link [/YOUTUBE].
Now I discovered that embedding on this forum only works by pasting the youtube share link (not the embedd link) located by clicking share below the yt video.
We now also can embed Soundcloud clips on the forum! See my post further down.

Edit:
Now I noticed youtube embedding works by simply copy/pasting the regular web link on the top of the screen.
That didn't work yesterday.

Nothing I have tried has worked. This version of the software may have made video "links only". People on mobile internet can get charged data fees for embedded videos.

Nothing I have tried has worked yet.

It works the way I described. Copy and paste the youtube share link (NOT the embed link!) located by clicking the share button below the yt video. Then copy/paste that link.
Here is a video example using the YT share link. (The link is spaced just to to show the text here) h t t p ://youtu.be/muKkVufgkAE

Thanks HK, much appreciated

Very cool!

HappyKemper · Oct 11th 2014

I also noticed that we now finally can embed Souncloud clips here!
Just copy/paste the Soundcloud link. (or use soundcloud share link, both ways work)

I picked this good song from our fellow kemper user as an example.
Dead Reckoning, Patient Zero

Good job! SoundCloud clips are looking good, too

Hannes_ITS · Oct 11th 2014

Oh awesome. Finally soundcloud links. Loving this new software update more and more!

Thank you for reply. i know how to embed video from YT. I wanted to know how to embed video so it starts at a certain time. eg. 2:24

darthwain · Nov 22nd 2014

maybe try editing video so it starts at eg 224 im sure there is a way if you google it also good luck

viabcroce · Nov 23rd 2014

Once the video on YT has reached your target starting point, right-clicking on the video opens a menu with the option to embed the video starting from there

OK, trying this:

EDIT: embedding works, but it does not start from requested time.
I used these links, none of them start at defined time:

Maybe this feature does not work on this forum software.

Youtube embedding doesn't work anymore, using either previous method, so I hope the Kemper web team read this and can fix this soon.
A small fix around this is to click the YT video and when it shows the error message, click the YT link in the lower right corner of the video.
That takes you to the YT page but we have to remove the -nocookie in the top address bar to play the video. So it reads youtube.com/
example, this link must be edited, and nocookie removed. https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/watch?v=muKkVufgkAE
