My videos aren't showing on the individual vid pages

The videos that I linked from YouTube aren't actually showing in the individual video pages for them (Chrome), though at least in Microsoft's new Edge browser it says it cannot be displayed in a frame. I had already found I had copied the secure URL from the share, and changed it to regular http, but still nothing. Takes time for the site to work its magic, or did I miss something? Any help would be great!

Make sure in the line

Full YouTube URL (Example link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AnmvvKhBq2U)
you're entering ONLY the same parts of the URL the example shows, only the specific video code "?v=...", and nothing else.

 

Especially make sure there's no embedding-related URL-parameters like this "&feature=..." or whatever they're adding into their embedding or sharing URLs when you generate them on the YouTube page or copy them from your browser's address bar. These are actually "known" to be able to mess up the IP.Board's own embedding mechanism, and do so without telling you via an input error or anything either.

 

(As the "v" Parameter is the only parameter required or used, it's a rather safe bet actually that any occurrence of a "&" inside your URL is a surefire sign it will have bogus parameters.)

Yup. I was using the YouTube Share URL, and once I copied the normal URL sans the stuff you mentioned, the video appeared instantly in both the individual vid pages and any mod I highlighted in them. Thanks!
