When Woody Guthrie was singing hillbilly songs on a little Los Angeles radio station in the late 1930s he used to mail out a small mimeographed songbook to listeners who wanted the words to his songs. On the bottom of one page appeared the following: This song is Copyrighted in U.S., under Seal of Copyright #154085, for a period of 28 years, and anybody caught singin' it without our permission, will be mighty good friends of our'n, cause we don't give a dern. Publish it. Write it. Sing it. Swing to it. Yodel it. We wrote it, that's all we wanted to do - Pete Seeger, on Woody, June 67

I think you may have figured it out, Frank.  It looks like maybe Apple users are the ones affected.

When I use the link from the browser address bar, I get the device support message...  gonna leave the "https://" alone for illustration purposes:

address bar youtube URL:
"Share" tab youtube URL:

note the difference in the way the URL is constructed...

Embedding the same and removing the offending "s" that the SMF plugin seems to dislike so much...

Address bar:



"Share" tab:

I think youtube only wants to support embedding based on the URL construct defined in the "Share" tab, so grab the URL from there, THEN remove the "s" and presto...  embedded video.

I'm not on a Mac, PC using Windows 7. So it's not an Apple OS issue. I can duplicate the error and fix in Frank's test.

Share tab:


Address bar:

Well done, unclebud. A gold star for you.

If we could get a Mac enabled weenie to reproduce the error and fix, that would be great.  Here's a little screenshot splaining where to grab the correct (Share tab) and incorrect (Address bar) URLs from.
