    Error with embedding the source

    I installed the package successfully.

    I paste the URL http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vfdgx7QK8ig into the macro pop-up but when I publish I get the error:

    Error with embedding the source
    oohembed source: http://oohembed.com/oohembed/?url=http%3a%2f%2fwww.youtube.com%2fwatch%3fv%3dvfdgx7QK8ig

    I get the same with a Vimeo URL.

    Any ideas?

    I tried it with another video and it worked and I noticed the first video I tried it with had an age restriction confirmation so I'm guessing the macro is not/cannot get past that?

    Regards,

    I think the error reporting could be improved.

    Stuggled with this video for a while too http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5LxC3M-Yngs.

    When I tried the uTube video it reported "This video does not allow it to be embedded."

    Some further investigation has suggested that the outgoing request to oembed API is blocked by the firewall because the IIS webserver is running under an anonymous account.

    Unfortunately I can't change the configuration of the web server to test this.

    Any ideas?
