  3. Select YouTube Video, Hulu Video, or Google Video. The "Add Video" dialog will appear.

  4. If you select YouTube, "Add by searching" is selected by default. You may search for a video by entering a search word of phrase in the open text field. If you wish to embed with a url or embed code, select "Add by URL or EMBED" and follow the instructions below.

    To add by URL or EMBED, paste in the URL or the Embed code from the video into the open text field and click "Add Video." For more information on uploading videos visit the YouTube help center or the Google help center.

After you've added your video, an "Edit Video" dialog will appear. You can change the size of your video by using the (-) or (+) options. You can also change where your video appears in relationship to the copy on the page by using the layout icons. When you're satisfied with the size and layout of your video image, click on the "Done" button.

Note:
You cannot view a widget while editing a page; at that time, you will see an icon that represents your widget. Your widget will be viewable after you save the page.

I was having trouble uploading using both the URL and the embed code that automatically appears in the embed code box. Under that embed code box are four check boxes. I unchecked the first three and checked the last box "Use old embed code". The embed code in the box above changed. I copied THAT new embed code into the Wetpaint YouTube embed code box .... AND IT WORKED! Maybe it will work for you, too.

Every. Single. Time.

It says error try again. Error try again. I am sick of it.

I click add video and add by embed. Gave it the embed code, error. Gave it the web address, error. Tried the wigets, error. What the hell is wrong?

I am trying to upload mpeg videos from my computer to my wetpaint site. Is there a way to convert my mpeg files into a url or embedding code for wetpaint? Or should I continue to look around youtube for all of my videos again?
