for people using phpbb 3.0.7 use this html replacement instead, other wise you will get a {TEXT} error when submitting the bbcode in the ACP!

Code: Select all

<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/{INTTEXT}" wmode="transparent" style="width:400px; height:326px;" id="VideoPlayback" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" flashvars="">
