  How do I embed a custom player from my Youtube account. I have tried to copy and paste the code into a post that was generated at my YouTube account, but it doesn’t work. I used the the HTML tab in the add new post area. The code looks like this:

  <object width=”416″ height=”337″><param name=”movie” value=”http://www.youtube.com/cp/vjVQa1PpcFNNj4Z3lkPHAHHLPdWCu_PERslAhLjVnrM=”></param><embed src=”http://www.youtube.com/cp/vjVQa1PpcFNNj4Z3lkPHAHHLPdWCu_PERslAhLjVnrM=” type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” width=”416″ height=”337″></embed></object>

  Can anyone help me figure this out please.

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

  You cannot embed the custom player.

  WordPress has its own way of embedding youtube and other videos. See this support document for how to put youtube videos on your blog: http://support.wordpress.com/videos/youtube/ .
