My youtube video screen won't show up in post
-
I’ve posted many videos in my blog from youtube. I use the “insert media” button and put the URL in and it always shows the screen of the video once I publish the post. Now, the last 3 or 4 times I’ve tried to do this, doing the same as I always have, all I get is a link. The link takes me to the video, but I don’t want a link, I want the screen embedded into my page. I have not changed any settings. Is anyone else having this problem? If it’s just me, what can I do to fix it? Thank you.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

You don’t use the media button for that anymore and when you paste the link on your blog, you have to use the “unlink button”, after that and it will embed. -

Thank you! Now I see you only copy and past the URL into the body of the post. You no longer have to use the “insert media” button. Got it!! Thank you so muc.

I use the shortcode and it has never failed me.
