Like most people on MLP forums, they put an actual video from youtube in the reply so you can instantly view it. However, when I put the url to the video, it's just a url. Not the actual video that you can watch.

It's only a url. I want to post the video which allows you to press play and watch it straight away. How can I put on the actual video?
