I've found the problem.
All those You Tube links are about kitesurfing.
You're asking too much of it.

Hmm works for me on Firefox still...

Airhead can you watch videos on the youtube site?

Anyone else having this problem?

Just went to look at west Oz wave clip in windsurf wave sailing? section any way the embedded video does not appear just whiteness!!! Using an iPhone which should be able to fly people to the moon in the near future.

Hmm that one is vimeo not youtube, but it should still work.

Can you see youtube embeds?

Just tried again.. The thread is "west Oz clip" in the wavesailing section. Nothing comes up in the form of embedding. Maybe another iPhoner could give it a go. Vimeo works fine on my Mac top. Can't say I remember seeing a vimeo on my iPhone before. Will log into site to see what happens.
I love my iPhone. Seabreeze any where! Don't even open the computer any more lol

Edit
Test vimeo below

vimeo.com/

Hmm didn't embed oh well copy paste is as complicated as I can get!!!

For vimeo you need to use the short url (changed the slashes to asterisks so that you could see the text rather than the video):

Well there you have it. A big white area where an embedded video should be...

The phone uses QuickTime player I believe. Also I don't think they update as much as a their desktop slash laptop cousins. This phone hasn't been plugged into its computer for a while but i don't think it would matter.

Does anyone like the rabbit?

Cool tight lines thx for that. I got the video from the vimeo site. I watched the movie while I was there... and most importantly did any one like the rabbit!!!!!
Seems weird I can watch the rabbit with funny teeth on the site but not when embedded???
Winds coming in ...yeewwwwww

here's the quick solution <5mins
install google chrome, goodbye IE8

note
IE8 64bit has no flash player or activeX available
IE8 32bit in windows 7 and office 2010 has security, filters, certificate settings and god knows what so tight that limits embedded videos, no file downloads and no favorites - upshot - its too hard MS.
i didnt go to the point of uninstalling flash and IE8 and reinstalling - which supposedly will fix it

uninstall is not a real word
