When you post something, how do you directly post a video? Also, how do you put in a url and call it something else?

In the url of the youtube video you take the bit after the v= and put it between youtube tags.

For the video http://youtube.com/watch?v=wWLZsb6fKas

You would do [noparse]

You just highlight the text and press the hyperlink button (it's the one with the planet as the image). Then enter the url in the box that pops up.
