- It's now working with IE and Mobile
- Link will be replaced by iframe, so no more double click possible
- Iframe won't take space until link clicked

For me it's perfect, tell me if you see anything wrong guys

[DamienD]

Yup, perfect for me also

Many thanks RCK; you da man!!!

Thanks RCK.

Can we have support for time start modifiers on links? You know, videos that add stuff like &t=XXmXXs to the normal Youtube URL.
Also is there a way to not have to click on "Show YouTube" whatever, and just show the damn embed? The more I think about this the more I feel like a [youtube] tag should be added to BBCode to embed when we want and leave links alone when not.

The best way would be to add a new user control panel option to auto display all those embedded player.
[youtube] tag would be useless as the goal of this modification is to keep board speedy with slow internet connection

Honestly, who has a slow internet connection nowadays?
Also, on the iframe embedded, video isn't loaded unless you hit play, it only shows you a poster frame, so it would take as long as any other image takes, and I see plenty of images in the board and no one complaining.

I understood that people had problems when they posted a long list of Youtube links and if they all become embedded the post becomes unreadable. Hence why I would leave links as they are instead of auto parsing them, and add a youtube tag for those who actually want to embed a video. "Slow connection" doesn't seem like a plausible justification for this. "I don't care to add the tag" would be a plausible explanation, though

Another problem of this method now? If I do this:

[ url = https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WHATEVER ] Here is some text [ / url]

"Here is some text" would not be seen, it gets replaced by "show youtube player". I cannot read the text for the link. This is bad.
