I’ve played with this a lot. The problem somehow appears to be the rich editor. If you turn it off, it works fine. Thanks for the hint about wmode….
Let me paint a little scenario and I think you might get to the bug.
If I turn off the rich text widget, then I can pop the YouTube flash snippet into a post…. no problem.
If I turn the rich text widget back on and then edit the post it screws the post up.
What it does (even if you open the source window and fix it) is turn all the <embed> into <ibed> and </ibed>.
Something is screwy with the RTE because if you open a file that worked with a YouTube video and save it again without editing, it will be screwed up.
My brother reports the same problem on his blog. Just for the sake of convenience it would be nice to just cut and paste.
