Anyone have any suggestions on how to embed a YouTube hosted video into a phpBB message board thread?

YouTube mod is now enabled on the server. To display a YouTube video, just insert the following BBCode into your post

[youtube] YouTube URL (i.e. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hd2fTcOn7KI [/youtube]

Follow up (related) question. Would you just add the following code to embed the YouTube video into a HTML page?

Code: Select all: <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/4E-7uto5ed8"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/4E-7uto5ed8" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>

Inserting HTML directly into a post is disabled for the message boards for security purposes, so I don't think adding that in will work (it will just show up as the HTML code and not actually parse it and display it). We can enable it if necessary though.
