YouTube embedding problem.

[Kandy-Sugar]

I'm having trouble embedding YouTube videos even though I'm doing the exact same thing that I've done every other time I've embedded videos.

There's just a white box on the screen where the video should be.

Is there something anyone is doing different to embed videos that I should know about?

I usually:

Copy the embed link from youtube.
Then paste into my post.
Then highlight the link and click on the 'Remove link' button.
Then highlight the link again and click on the YouTube button.

But this isn't working anymore for some reason. =/

I've tried a few other ways but still no luck. =/

Any help would be appreciated!

inbetween the youtube wrap thing, paste the code in the HTML after the "watch?v="

eg. for this video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1iqJqNHX_g

paste the Y1iqJqNHX_g in there and that should do it. I had trouble earlier, but this worked for me:

Quote this post if you'r unsure, you should see what I did.

To embed a video into your post, make the tags look like this -

Take a youtube link, for example - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7nT10djF6J8

[ youtube ] put the code after v= in this space [ / youtube ] (without spaces)

So then you'll have this

And that should work perfectly.
