Is there bbcode set up for this forum that allows users to post youtube video direct into a post?

Tony - all you need is the short part of the YT address, the funny bit with letters and numbers (in the above case "F4fPv450OYM") found near the end of the YT url. just put that between the bbcode tags.

Lol, everyone will be at it now.

Here's the how-to step-by-step version:
1) Go to youtube and find the video that you want, copy the address of the video from the address bar in your browser.
2) My example is a Joe Satriani video, the address is "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F4fPv450OYM"
3) The bit you need to post using the youtube tags on here is in bold "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F4fPv450OYM"
4) Take that part of the address and place it between the {youtube} and {/youtube} tags eg {youtube}F4fPv450OYM{/youtube} (all with square brackets of course!)
5) You're all done, post away!
