YouTube Videos Redirected to YouTube on a Nexus 7

    This MAY, or MAY NOT have something to do with this plugin:

    AFTER updating my WordPress installation to nightly build 4.1 alpha 30000, I installed this plugin in the Kelly Theme, where it worked really well on my Windows Laptop, BUT:

    When I tried to view any embedded YouTube Videos on a Google Nexus 7, I was redirected to YouTube itself bypassing my website. I think this plugin does its job too well, and makes Google unhappy. They want their direct access customers back, so they bypass my website when using this plugin on their tablet. Other users of Google Tablets and FVE, should check and see if it’s happening to them also. It might just be caused by other Plugins that I have installed…don’t know.

    It’s actually a feature of the plugin and has nothing to do with Google or the Nexus 7. Just un-check this option and you should be good to go: https://take.ms/TH4Gw

    The feature was added because I think that on smaller screens, it can often be a better user-experience to have the YouTube or Vimeo video open in the native app, or the mobile site.
