  I am doing exactly what you say to do to post videos, but it doesnt work. The video doesn’t show up, only the URL letters and numbers do. I am a video professional looking for a good site to host my work, but I cant get your site to work for me. What am I doing wrong? I am on a Mac if that makes a differerence.

  There is no content at all at http://barrylittlefield.wordpress.com/ is this the blog you’re referring to?

  Don’t follow the instructions. They’re not accurate all the time, as you’ve discovered. When Youtube changes anything, they go POOF!

  The only foolproof way is the shortcode.

  [youtube=URL]

  That always works.
