Hi,
I'm using EasyBlog and get an error when embedding a youtube video in a post

Post: http://eglantineonline.com/fr/blog-fr/2016-01-11-10-53-43

HTML code produced by easyblog/Joomla:
<video width="560" height="315" controls="controls">
<source src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/jOvjw8fU-K8"></source>
</video>

In the browser (Firefox43) a grey area shows with error message "no video with supported format and Mime type found" , IE11 mentions "invalid source", Chrome shows just a black box

an alternative route via iframe code directly does seem to get filtered out by Joomly/JCE Editor although this should be allowed from what I can see in the settings..

what am I doing wrong ?
Thanks for your support on forehand!

Hi Anne,
I am really sorry for the delay of this reply.

I've have check you site and try to reproduce you issue with tinyMCE editor and found that it don't read any embed code, this maybe from tinyMCE editor error. You can try to consult with tinyMCE editor developer.

for video you also can use our embed video see screenshot:- http://screencast.com/t/FRBAJ04H2A3H

Hope this help.

we solved the issue by changing the blog editor (easyblog settings-composer-Composer editor) to "default Easyblog". what shows seems to be the JCE editor, and using their video button worked.
