Changing the Video? was created by silkweb

Hi All, no matter what I do (I feel like a noob) I can't get the video url to change. I change it in the source code but still the same youtube video is displayed. I'm pulling my hair out.

Go to youtube.com and there get code for the video file you need. Then edit module with Video through Joomla. Disable WYSIWYG editor and paste code from youtube.com. Your video will appear.

No joy.

I did all that and it shows in the code

Code:

<object width="235" height="176"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/zWpOmWJar8k"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/zWpOmWJar8k" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="235" height="176"></embed></object><br><b><a href="http://noolmusic.com/youtube_videos/48_championship_basketball_drills.php">48 Championship Basketball Drills</a> via <a href="http://noolmusic.com">Noolmusic.com</a></b>

but when I save it, it still shows the video that came with the template and when I "view source" this is the code I see:

Code:

<object data="http://www.youtube.com/v/ulHGledrAkc?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=10,0,32,18" classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" height="176" width="235">
<param name="FlashVars" value="playerMode=embedded" />
<param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/XWoD-FOWzhI&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" /><embed height="176" width="235" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/XWoD-FOWzhI&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" flashvars="playerMode=embedded" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed>
</object>

If you look at the "embedded source it is the url for the video that comes with the template and it must be hardcoded somewhere cuz it's not in the module?

Fixed it, turns out I had to remove the code from the other video as it had the embed code in it and it works now.

Thank you!
