Looks like it's not really working no. I thought it's because your link has a weird youtu.be thing, but nvm

Idk what I have done tbh. I need to look through it all again thoroughly. I blame phpBB.

@Gendarme It works only when you're looking thru a user's posts and see all their posts chronologically.

Tbh I also don't see the point of a "youtube" tag since there's a "video" tag anyway

The [youtube] tag works just the same way as the [video] tag now for legacy reasons (to not break old posts).

There is a new tag to choose a custom size defined as a percentage of the default size with [video={percentage}]. The reason the tag doesn't work on Dolan's post is because you need to edit the post for the BBCode to get re-parsed in most cases. This is not always the case and I have no clue how that shit works.
