Recently added support to the Domoticz forum for embedding YouTube. It is quite easy in phpBB:

Go to the ACP, then tab 'Posting', click 'BBcodes' left.

Then add a new one.

BBcode usage:

Code: Select all

[youtube]{IDENTIFIER}://www.youtube.com/watch?v={SIMPLETEXT}[/youtube]
HTML-replacement:

Code: Select all

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="{IDENTIFIER}://www.youtube.com/embed/{SIMPLETEXT}" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Help line text:

Code: Select all

Use this tag to embed YouTube videos. Place the URL between the YouTube tags. Needs an URL like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABCD1234
Don't know about other ones, as YouTube is the most used one.
