YouTube links not appearing as videos anymore ?

I used to be able to just paste a YouTube URL and it would appear as the video with the play button in the middle.  Now it just appears as a HTML link.

What’s up?  (Posting from Chrome on an iPad)

Ahhh...  it doesn’t like links from the mobile version of the site.

Also there is a forum bug where if you go back an edit an embedded video the editing will kill the video and it turns into a still image.
You have to paste the video link in again to get it to work.

Do you just paste the URL, rather than as a link?
