Thanks for that information. phpBB also has a feature that allows creation of new BBCodes. You basically give it the format of the user entry (with some optional variables) along with the HTML that should be substituted when that section is rendered in a browser (which can use those variables). You can see what it produces by using your browser's "Show Source" option. The embedded video in the HTML file should look something like this:
<iframe title="Rumble" src="https://rumble.com/embed/v4aktz6/?pub=4"
width="640" height="360" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
That was produced with a user entry of: [rumble]v4aktz6[/rumble]
I like doing it that way so I don't have to use third party "add ons" in our forum (beyond the basic phpBB).

I like low resolution settings for embedding since I believe they should load faster. Our forum defaults to 10 posts per page. If each of those posts has a few videos, the loading can be very slow. So lower resolution is fine. I figure if anyone wants to see a video in higher resolution, they can enlarge it or go to the source.
Thanks for all of your contributions to our forum!!
