When I try to use the video embed, the video doesn't display. The reason for this could have been addressed before but I have not found it. Have any of you had this problem?

Yeah, I've had this problem a lot. I'm guessing it's a weird https related issue, since embedding a video with it brings up weird errors in the console log like:

Blocked loading mixed active content "http://phpbbex.com/api/bbmedia.js"[Learn More]

Why is phpBB trying to load a media related script from a third party site? Could someone on the admin team here move it to MFGG's server instead?

I took a look at this problem a few weeks ago. I couldn't immediately figure out how to fix it. I can take another look later.

Should be fixed now! Both the "video" and "youtube" tags should be working now (they do the same thing, so it doesn't matter which one you use).

As I expected, it was an HTTP/HTTPS issue. I moved bbmedia.js onto MFGG's server and made a few small modifications to it to make it play nice with HTTPS.

Thank you, Vinny! You have no idea of how much of a pinch this put me in. I'll be looking forward to when I use this repaired feature to post a future animation!
