Hi Everyone, a few weeks ago I added a new feature to automaticwasher.org and I copied it to Vacuumland the other day when I upgraded the site. This feature allows you to take a you tube web address URL and paste it into the post box here and it will automatically convert the URL into a YouTube video player when you preview and post it. While it did work fine, I noticed that if a lot of users posted videos in the same thread, the tread would start to get slower and slower to load.

So I went back to the drawing board and rewrote how I did is. I now believe the new way I'm loading the videos will allow a thread with lots of videos load very fast.

So if you wouldn't mind post a video or two from youtube that you really enjoy (nothing naughty please lol).

See the image below on how to do this. It wont work on playlists, it will just work on single youtube videos. It also wont work if the YouTube account owner has blocked video embedding on other websites.

So give it a try and let me know what you think. Thanks everyone!

So for my favorite video I'm going to post that fabulous Westinghouse Vacuum Commercial that was found the other day. That commercial is too wonderful and must be saved, so I captured it and uploaded it to the automaticwasher YouTube account. This way we will have this video forever. It's an important video for Vacuumland and I want to make sure it is never lost.

 
Yes it appears that is only happening in Firefox, I'll get that fixed.

Please don't post videos in the special link box, post them right in with you text, otherwise I cannot test this new feature.

Thanks everyone.
