How to add/embed flash movies to your post 5 Years, 1 Month ago Karma: 5
In case you may want to add/embed flash movies (like those from YouTube) in your posts, here's how:

I'll use YouTube flash movies here as example.


1. When posting, click on the 'Insert Flash' button.




2. This code:
Code:

[flash=200,200][/flash]

will be inserted to your post. '200,200' should the movie's dimensions horizontal and vertical, respectively. In YouTube the dimensions are '425,350', so it should be:
Code:

[flash=425,350][/flash]



3. Find the location of the flash file you want to embed.

In YouTube, you can find it at the 'Embed' code:



Copy this and paste it in Notepad (or any word processor) for easier reading.
Sample:
Code:

<object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/bGDgFV715Pk"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/bGDgFV715Pk" type="application/x-shockwave- flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>

The file you need is the one starting with '' enclosed in double quotes. In this example it's:
Code:

http://www.youtube.com/v/bGDgFV715Pk

Copy that and paste it in between the 'flash' tags in your post, like this:
Code:

[flash=425,350]http://www.youtube.com/v/bGDgFV715Pk[/flash]


Once posted, it should look like this:
[flash=425,350]www.youtube.com/v/bGDgFV715Pk[/flash]


I really suck at explaining stuff but I hope that helps. Now start embedding until we get arrested for excessing hotlinking. ;D

OK... Let me try.  :smiley66:

[flash=400,400]files.holylemon.com/14566JJx/flash/jacko.swf[/flash]

Forgot to mention that you can right click on my test to be able to stop the flash if it loops.  O0

Nice. ;D

Yes, stopping a movie by right-clicking on it and clicking the checked 'Play' would be good in case there are more than 1 movie running on a page.
