YouTube, what's going on with Newsmax, OAN, Watters World and the Like?
Last couple days these videos are placing a Trump picture, Watters World logo or some other photo over the video content which they want to place in the screen? You see the reporter, but the video in the screen is being covered up and you can only hear the audio of said video?
Also, these videos are no longer showing up as Newsmax, OAN, Life, Liberty & Levin, Fox News, Watters World, etc. They show up as being posted by '? Chinese symbols ?' some foreign users?
Just watched part of one and they skipped the cut in video all together?

I know not of what you speak. Even it's not happening here or I just don't notice it. I don't use YouTube for news, so perhaps that's why.

Why don't you guys just use the embed code that's available under the video?

I'd include the video, but something is going on with the Karmanator site.
I have no trouble seeing Gutfeld’s video
You can watch the video, but when they show a photo or video in a 'picture in picture', it has a photo over it so you can not see the video referenced.

I guess, because we don't know how to do it...
If you click on share, it allows you to do a few things... like copy link, but I don't see codes?

It's because the videos are being posted by a Vietnamese guy. (hence, the "symbols").
He is blocking the video because his posts and/or his account would be deleted for TOS. (Violence).
Although the "real" reason is not TOS violation, but the obvious, "conflicting narrative".

^^^ I thought it might be the user editing the videos (given the symbols), but where are all the legit videos? It seems like most of all the conservative users have disappeared (or has a limited amount of videos lately).
Has YouTube started purging and censoring content in the last few days?

Yes.

I'm not seeing that option either when I click the share button. Not sure if it's because I'm using my phone or what. Anyhow, that's why I looked up and used the site online.

Posting a video from utoob isn't difficult.
1) open up SF Thread and select Reply/Post 2) Open up new tab on utoob with the video you want to show in SF up and running 3) Look below the video to the right for the Share Icon. Click it. 4) you'll see a pop up window, look for the button with Embed under it. Click That Button. 5) Another window will open, Embed Video will be the title, Click Copy in the lower Right, 6) Return to your SF Post/Reply 7) Click the video button it looks like a Piece of Movie Film on the button tray above where you want to post, it's next to the image button and the next to last button. 8) You will see [ flash player ] [ / Flash Player] appear in the text box where you type your post. Click inbetween those two and paste the Embed Video Code you copied from utoob. 10) If you are ready, click Post Now...
I put extra spaces in the code [flash video] so it would show you what it looks like when you paste the embed video code you copy, what you'll get is below...

This what I used to do years ago but then YT changed their code and the above process didn’t work anymore. Rather than horse around with it I relied on tubeit. Will go back to the old way now.

These are my options when I click share. What am I missing?

On a PC you can also just right click on the video and "Copy embed code". Paste that between the flash video bbcode and you're in business.

Here's my options:
