It's a simple new bbcode. Those are those buttons above the textbox when you post, you know, the ones to make bold and italic text. This one is to embed a youtube video. You just click the youtube bbcode button, copy and paste the url for the youtube video you want to embed, click the youtube button again to close the tag, and post.

Example; The code for the above video is this:

Great Idea.

Already the embedded videos are driving me nutz!
Is it possible to make a seprate forum where we can post these? Having them in the messages is making a lot of clutter.

(Just my opinion. Does anyone else think this?)

Wonderful. Moving. Informative. And some complain about "clutter" Phlegm comes to mind

Well, this tag will only embed them if you post them on youtube. The above videos you posted are only linked to, not embedded. That would take a different bbcode that would embed videos from photobucket.

Well, there is a modification, that, if added, will say under the post title on the topic index how many images are included in that post, if any. In the meantime, if you don't want to see the videos, don't click on the play button.
