You need to remove the "s" in the http part of the URL or otherwise it won't work.

The following doesn't work because it's https instead of http.

I hope that solves the problem for you.

Didn't work. The link did not have the "s" in https. Used the YouTube tags as well. See the Star Wars thread here, 18th post down:

That's because you used the embedded link. You need to use the video URL.

So this :

Needs to become this to be embedded (but with no spaces between the YouTube tags):
