I don't think it works with mobile or embedded links. Only the basic links.

Alternately I think you can just insert the video ID without the full URL.

Seriously though, every spot where there is supposed to be a video is just a blank space for me. I don't have anything blocked and YouTube itself is working fine for me. Even embedded videos on other sites are normal.

Was teasing. It really is working fine for me, though your initial link was suffering from the feature=embedded issue discussed above. Try shift-refreshing to see if the stuff loads.

Nope, still broke. I guess it's the browser.

Yeah, both my work and home Firefox browsers are having the same issue. Confirmed it's working fine in Chrome though.

That's strange. My firefox is having no issues. Maybe an addon you're using?

While I haven't had any issues here, I don't typically embed Youtube, I have had issues elsewhere where I have to use IE for the site to function properly. Something happened in the last update.

Confirmed the videos displayed normally with Firefox Safe Mode. Need to figure out what's causing it. Smiley: glare

So it turns out that the FlashBlock addon is partially broken due to the FF34 update. A lot of users are reporting similar issues as mine on other sites. Disabling the add-on solves the problem.

I do not have Flashblock installed, and still have issues. My solution has been when I'm attempting to use the offending page, open a new tab and...Bingo! What has been broken is repaired. I have to do it every time which is a little bit of a hassle, but it's a viable workaround.
