Hi gang, I was reading the post there and I want to know also. How to make a clickable over a video.

Ok youtube have blocked it for reasons unknown but it is still a clickable link.

How do you do this?

Thanks

Mike

[edit reason] no specific links to videos, thanks [/edit]

Just to add: The link shows up in the last 20 seconds of the video.

I know you can upload flash files once they are converted into a supported type. Not sure if this has anything to do with it, however. A search on this yielded nothing for me. Pretty neat, though; that's the first time I've seen that at Youtube.

YouTube Video Annotations

It's in the "what's new" section, and there's a link to a video showing you how

It only allows links to another YouTube page though

Ok I'm completely new to this site. Where is the "what's new" section?
Thanks

sorry ptmike,

I meant there's a What's New section on youtube.com home page

Oh and Welcome to WebmasterWorld! :)

Thought this was interesting to note:

Video annotations are available now as a "beta" feature. We're working hard to get this out of beta and, once we do, annotations will support more languages (not just English) and appear on videos embedded in other websites.

Thanks for that Suzy :)
