Embeding Video Question

guy

I've been using the BBcode embed link recently to embed video clips into forum posts. My question is: Is there any way to get the embedded video thumbnail to show the play arrow on it like they do in our galleries? Without this arrow over the thumbnail and it's not easy for the reader to know if they are looking at an embedded video clip or just a photo?

Thanks

Link us to a gallery you are embedding from?

OK Lets say I want to embed the video in this gallery:

I use this code:



In my gallery the thumbnail looks like this with an arrow on it indicating it's a movie:



However when it shows up on forum post it doesn't have the arrow on it.



What I want is the arrow - is that possible?
Thanks

Yeah, use the embeddable link tab, and grab the link that way.

Well that's what I am doing but the image comes up without the movie arrow on it.

Looks like this when you use the iPod/DVD size link:
