Embedded YouTube malfunctioning

[Nextron]

[youtube][/youtube] BBCode tags result in a Flash object being embedded in the generated HTML:

Code: Select all

<object width="425" height="350">
  <param name="movie" value="https://www.youtube.com/v/xxxxxxxxxxx"></param>
  <param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param>
  <embed src="https://www.youtube.com/v/xxxxxxxxxxx" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed>
</object>

YouTube has deprecated this api, so YouTube videos no longer load. Chrome seems to be the exception, as it loads the HTML5 instead, but that looks like a browser feature.

Video linked from homepage included as an example:

Hmm. I use a Firefox fork (Pale Moon) and have VLC on my comp. It included an extension for my browser. I can activate the VLC Web Plugin to play that video; I have flash player uninstalled.

But would be nice to just have the HTML5 video load, if there's a way to the [youtube] tags.

I think I fixed that -
Well except for old posts containing that bb code - I think
