When you click on the share button for a video, click on "Embed" and then copy and paste that into your post.

YES!! Been trying to do this for years. I think it's the forum software glitch as other forums do it just from pasting the link. So, you have to be on youtube first, then click share, then embed from youtube?

This site uses good 'ol vBulletin and PHP so a couple extra steps are in order.

On YT vid, click share. Embed window will pop up, click copy. On T4R fourm, click reply. Click the link icon. Link window will pop up, paste the YT code. Hit submit if your done.
