Test

 

 

Edit: I didn't add any tags to it and it went through just fine. Are you using IE10?

 

Also, make sure you're grabbing the share url from underneath the video. By default the one in the URL bar is secure (https:) and won't post.

 

 

Btw,  you've been Rebecca rolled. :)

Hehehehe :)

 

I'm using Chrome - 29.0.1541.0 dev-m

 

I see that you added the video with an address of http://youtu.be/
I tried to add it with the normal http://www.youtube.com/ address. Always worked.

What about the others? On my screen, none of them recieved a hero's welcome....

I mean none of those are working, they're just links

 

You mean even the one I posted? I see them fine.

 

Edit: If you're speaking of just your post, yes they're all just links.

Why does it work for me and not you?

 

I haven't a clue, I quoted marshall (when he copied one of my links) and it worked,

when I try to post url, embed, or share... I get the link only... not sure what I'm doing wrong....

 

 

edit, just like right now

Members don't seem to have permission to use the media tag, but I can't find where that is determined (Neobond on test account)

OMG! He's got an alternate account BAN HIM :p

 

No Alternate (Dupe) Accounts.

Should you be disciplined with a restriction or ban, you are not allowed to open a new account to obtain freedom to post. Restrictions and bans are given for a reason, and usurping that ability by re-registering is not tolerated. If another account is opened, that account will be banned immediately, and the original account will be further penalized. Anyone who has warnings on their account is automatically excluded from changing their user name.

 

Sorry Boss, couldn't pass up that opportunity.

    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Normally, I admit when a title is clickbait (unfortunately, it's become somewhat necessary in AI-dominated news sections today), but in this case, all supported versions is implied and doesn't need to be spelled out in the title. Of course, I'm covering a Patch Tuesday update but that is only available to supported Windows SKUs. All our coverage relates to supported Windows software and SKUs only unless we expressly state that it's "unsupported", "unofficial", or "third-party". I'm sorry, but supported/official SKUs don't need to be spelled out as such in every Neowin headline.

      ALL versions or ALL SUPPORTED versions? Neowin does it again.

    • Apple MacBook Neo is a blessing for Windows users, here's why

      But the reality is it will work for people's needs, and they don't care about the technology that makes it. Clearly not everyone's needs, but that low end space where personal laptops were only used to type emails, watch content and browse websites, but they didn't want to do that on a small screen device. Heck, writing that out I can now see the connection and reason it'll do so well. Apple is about experience. If the experience is bad, they don't release it. Low end Windows laptop manufacturers up until this point have not taken that into consideration ever before, so slow laggy usage with brittle slimey plastic shells were common. I hope that the low end space at least creates better physical products that last a bit longer, and if Microsoft get their act together, they could also have a solid OS on such low end hardware that would actually make the experience work for what the hardware was intended for. The fact that the CPU is a "cellphone", sorry mobile phone processor is irrelevant. It's about the experience, and so far, that sounds quite solid.
