I don’t know if your question is specific to Umbraco 9 or not but there are several ways to do this. You can use a macro in the grid, you can use the block editor and create a block which accepts a video url and you render out the relevant html for it. In v8 there is an oembed property editor that you can use for this sort of thing.
Embed video without rich text editor
Hi,
I was able to embed a video using the rich text editor, but I wasn't able to find the way to add an embedded video without the rte.
I have places where I want the user to only put one video and no other content.
Is there a built-in data type for it or some other way it should be done?
Thanks, A

Thanks Paul,
I'm trying to do things in V9, maybe the property editor from V8 hasn't been added to V9 yet.
If I try to create a new data type, don't see anything that seems like an embed property editor.
Yeah its a community package. I don't think Dave has ported it over to umbraco 9 yet.

If anybody comes back to this, there are now versions supporting Umbraco 9, 10, 11 and 12 - https://github.com/dawoe/OEmbed-Picker-Property-Editor
