    [Forum] HTML 5 Video Embeds - video controls spawn originating site

    I'm not sure if anyone else is having this problem, but when users are embedding YouTube HTML 5 videos into their posts, any player control operation spawns a window that opens the original site (YouTube) and plays the video TWICE.

    So any time I hit PLAY or PAUSE etc. I get a two-for-one deal. Any suggestions on how I can stop this from happening?

    Edit: Facepalm. A number of users have been including the [URL] link on top of the video embed code, so clicking the video jumps to the content. Sigh..I need more sleep.

    I've had to manually fix a few of these myself. Clearly what's needed is automatic video embedding. It's absurd to expect soccer moms to use this stuff right.
