Trouble viewing a YT embed video (with swell theme)

    Dear all,
    I need some help, on my site http://www.astrakanproject.com I have a video in the banner, but as the theme doesn’t allow for sound in that banner, I used to have another video, the same actually as an embed video from YouTube that you could click on to start – really usual way. I was working all fine!
    As I released a new video today, I wanted to change the video displayed, and its seems I can’t get it embed?
    Has there been in the recent days a change on the way to embed videos that I missed?

    I tryied these “code”:
    [ youtube http://youtu.be/HXZUimPHa6w ] (same I had before, just replaced the video link)
    Also tried: [ youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXZUimPHa6w ]

    Any idea?
    Thank you all for your feedback, Simone

    Adding some more info: it seems I can’t embed videos at all any more, or not on the way I used to, I was trying to publish an article with my new video on (embed of course!), and in any way I’m trying, the video doesn’t show up, only the code not even with a link
    (I haven’t posted the post as I don’t want my followers to get the notification with no video on it)

    I’m really… confused! Any help will be useful!

    I searched in the docs, and finally got it: just the link is enough!
    Like this in case you need it too http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXZUimPHa6w

    Sorry, when I initially posted, I didn’t seen to find the right info!
    Good night all, Simone
