Uh Oh. Now need to figure out which one of the attempts actually embedded the video instead of just the URL link. I tried a bunch of different options, but it only showed code, or the URL on my end.
Hold my keyboard and watch this! 🙃

@miles-ladue at your convenience, if you wouldn't mind please let me know which line you actually see the video embedded to where you can just click the "play" button. Thanks!
Line 1: Using the embed function in this posting software
iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/rFIr8BZCaLk?si=xZGusbI2h4VCk-sg" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe

Scott, line # 2....and line #4 both work as links to the....how to drive a sidecar rig video.
Line #1 and line #3 are duds.

Thanks Miles. What I'm trying to accomplish is actually embedding the video so it shows up in the post. Not as a URL that needs to be clicked to go view it.
If I understand correctly, you do not see the actual video in the post. Just a link you can click?
Hold my keyboard and watch this! 🙃

Scott, that is correct......no video in the post.....only the link to the video in line #2 and line #4.
