    I just went to edit one of my hubs and noticed that none of my embedded youtube videos are showing up. The capsule is clearly there as they still have the titles I have given them, but instead of a video there's just huge white space where the videos should be...
    Is anyone else experiencing this?

      Is it just one or two videos? It's possible the video creator has disabled video embedding?

        It's across my whole account as far as I can tell. Normally if it's a disabled video embedding it gives me a black triangle with an exclamation mark in the centre. I have no warnings, I simply have no videos.

          @Lauryallan

          I'm not aware of any site-wide isues related to embedded video.

          Can you provide a URL for a problematic Hub?

          Does the issues persist in another web browser?

            I just checked and it happens on both firefox and chrome and it's any hub I look at while signed into HP.
            I just tested it and it's fine if I sing out of HP. I don't understand why that would be.
            http://lauryallan.hubpages.com/hub/star … how-review - here's a hub it's happening with. The big white space at the bottom is where the video is supposed to be.
            http://juliedeneen.hubpages.com/hub/Pia … -Beginners - Just checked the hub of the day and I can't see these videos either....

              I just tested those Hubs and video in Firefox 14 and Chrome 21 both in Windows 7.

              I was able to play the videos both signed in and not.

              Can you play the same videos on YouTube's site (non-embeded)?

      @kellyteam
      Are you now able to play YouTube videos embedded in Hubs?

        This has been sent to our moderation team to be addressed.

        Is anyone still having the problem?
        I just tried to reproduce the issue in Windows 7 using Chrome 21 and embedded videos are showing up and playable.
