 * Hi,
 * Just wondering if someone could walk me through how the youtube-brackets plugin
   works. Let’s say I’ve written my post and I’m ready to add the video. What do
   I do?
 * Thanks very much.

 * while you are waiting for an answer, youtube is pretty easy. there is an embed
   code feature right on their viewing screen. i keep this code on hand and substitute
   the url. you can also dial in the size.
 * i just paste this in the “code mode” when writing the post.
 *     ```
       <object height="355" width="425">
       <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/cMNW51-RmwU&amp;rel=1"></param>
       <param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><ibed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></ibed>
       ```

 * To add to the previous solution, I found that Youtube doesn’t work too well with
   the theme I am using – it threw out the sidebar and otherwise messed up the pages.
   To fix this I installed the [Anarchy Media Player](http://an-archos.com/anarchy-media-player/)
   and the videos work fine now.

 * I believe i gave you code that cause some validation errors. This should be error
   free…
 *     ```
       <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" style="width:300px; height:247px;" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/OZbTXDkrD1o"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/OZbTXDkrD1o" /></object>
       ```
