I've used Smart YouTube in the usual way, using httpv:
The preview shows up in my blog post, and I can click on it to play, but it re-directs my whole page to YouTube. It is not one of those embedding disabled by request videos. I do NOT want it to re-direct. I tried it in Firefox, Chrome and Google Reader and get the same thing in each. What's going on?
In your directions it says to use the URL for the video. Which URL should we be using? This used to work fine before, but now all embeds send you to YouTube.
Fred, nothing has changed. You still need to use the URL, just not create a link out of it . YOu need to simply copy paste it to the post and add a 'v'.
