I haven't used phpBB for a while.
Do they allow HTML code in posts?
If so you can just add the code from youtube
Also see http://cit.ucsf.edu/embedmedia/
Otherwsie you will have to edit the files to include a BBCode Flash or Embed tag.
You may be best off checking phpBB support forums.

I think so, but ive tried the embedded code, but it didnt work
it just comes out like this:
<object><param></param><param></param><embed></embed></object>

Looks like it may be filtering out the content. You may need to ask at phpBB support forums for help.

With the IPB forum set up, some folks have created "bb codes" for this kind of thing. Maybe someone at phpbb could create something similar.
