Been experimenting putting a 'GoPro' video Camera inside the machine enclosure - really just mucking about trying to make sure it's in a relatively safe place and still get a reasonable shot:

Andrew,
Simples: Press the YouTube Button and paste the video url between the inner pair of square brackets. (Right click on video and click on "Copy Video URL".)
[ Invalid YouTube link ]
I'm amazed that you couldn't suss that one out considering all the far more complex problems you've shown you can solve. :thumbup: :thumbup:

Well it's still not working for me :(
"Press the YouTube button" - which button where ?
"Inner pair of square brackets" - which square brackets where?
From the source video on my youtube page I can by right clicking :
'Copy Video URL' which gives me:
[ Invalid YouTube link ]
or
'Copy embed code' which gives me:
<iframe width="640" height="360" src="" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
No Youtube buttons or square brackets in sight !!!!

This is how you initially had it
--- Code: ---www.youtube.com/embed/cW5xb9LVlE8
--- End code ---
This is what you need to make it work
--- Code: ---[youtube]cW5xb9LVlE8[/youtube]
--- End code ---
There are other methods but this one allways seems to work for me. it is those 11 characters between the square brackets that you have to find. Hope this helps. :D
Cheers :beer:

OK I've found the 'Youtube' button hiding amongst the test attributes - thanks Don and Philf.

Andrew,
Sorry - I should have told you where the YouTube button was. I went out just after I posted so have only just seen your reply. I didn't know you could just paste the video code between the square brackets so I've learned something myself.
I'm just about to venture into the world of a CNC lathe. Mine shouldn't present much of a problem as there's no auto tool change, only a 1/2hp spindle motor and a 3-jaw manually operated chuck to worry about. (And it will fit in the boot of my car!)
Cheers.
Phil.
