Could be this. Hopefully not because the current video player is fucking terrible.

Just did it.
He's asking how to post it in the videos section guys, not in a thread. That's what i'm guessing at least, since he says his won't convert.
OP, you go to the add video page. there will be a place for you to select a file, but then under that there's a long thing about how we shouldn't embed. under that in blue it will say something like 'click here if you really want to ignore this and embed anyway.' click that and it will provide you with a 'flash video embeded code' box to embed your code. go to vimeo, and click embed. click 'use old embed code.' MAKE SURE the embed code actually changes. if it's just a few lines, click it again. the old embed code is a bunch of lines long, the new one is only a few. copy the old code, and embed it in the box on NS. then you're good to go.
