  I have the same problem. my site is fpaynter.com. The post that has a non-functioning video block is

  Basketball Shot Make/Miss Recorder

  scroll to the bottom of the post and you’ll see the video block, but you can’t run it. It works in edit mode, but not in view

  Video blocks still work in previously created posts. See

  Also, I disabled all plug-ins as a troubleshooting measure, but it didn’t fix the problem – still can’t view newly placed video

  I thought it might be something specific to this (rather long) post, so I created a brand-new post with just three paragraphs – a bit of text, and two video blocks. The first video block is the one I just added to my long post, and the second one is from a previous post where it still plays properly. However, in the new post, neither one will play correctly. In each case, they play for 2-3 seconds and then freeze the first time they are accessed, but after that they won’t play at all.
