  Posting Youtubes here is a little different, you do not download them. This FAQ will show you how. I’ve used this procedure quite often and it works.

  How do I post a Youtube video? [screencast]

  To embed a youtube:

  1. click on the add video icon in the “add media section
  2. paste the URL of the youtube video into the “URL” field under “From URL in the video upload window.
  3. click on the “insert into post” button at the bottom and the code will be inserted into your post.

  The same applies for dailymotion and google. For videos from other sources, try the vodpod solution which works with virtually everything else: http://vodpod.com/wordpress/
