How do you embed videos?

I've never been able to work it out so if you could help me that would be good. Thanks.

I actually just figured it out.

So you do copy your link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hLpgxry542M

You trim off a few things: youtube=hLpgxry542M

You put brackets around it: [ youtube=hLpgxry542M ] (put the brackets closer)

And you get this:

Thank you sir, you are a god.

Incidentally, if you find a post and wondering how the user made that post, you can just quote him and look at the code.
