  Not sure why but these two vimeo videos are not working on my site:

  http://blog.mtvscratch.com/2012/02/14/i-am-not-a-hipster/
  http://blog.mtvscratch.com/2012/01/23/scratch-loves-pig-chase/

  They were working fine as of this morning.

  Also, something weird is going on with this Dailymotion video:
  http://blog.mtvscratch.com/2012/02/01/shut-up-and-play-the-hits/

  It looks fine on PC (Chrome, IE, Firefox), but when I look at it through a Mac/Safari, it moves around when I scroll down the page and doesn’t play.

  Thanks in advance for your help.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  How did you embed the videos?

  I used the same coding as listed in the links.

  I read on the vimeo site that people were having similar issues, so I’m guessing it’s not a wordpress problem.

  I can’t figure out the issue with Dailymotion though. On my PC (Chrome, Firefox, IE), looks perfectly fine. But when I look at my post with the dailymotion video or even click the support link for dailymotion above on my Mac, the video isn’t sitting in place. It floats around as I scroll. Is anyone else having that issue?

  Sorry, will have to wait for a Mac user to come by and confirm. :)

  I’m also having problems with a Vimeo video, but it happens to me the other way around the embed code I use works fine for Mac but it doesn’t on PC.

  Also, the problem is that is uploaded other Vimeo video to my blog doing the same thing and that one works perfectly fine.
  The video I’m having problems with is:
  http://vimeo.com/36984480

  Instead of seeing the video, I see the main website of Vimeo.

  And looking at all your links today it seems that vimeo is back to normal.

  As far as scratchblogs’ problem with the DailyMotion video, we’re still waiting for a Mac user to stop by.
