« on: Wednesday, January 17, 2018, 06:39:42 AM »Thats not something done on Youtube side of things. That has to do with this site and its parser. Youtube never even get to see there's a link to it in here.There used to be a way to automatically embed youtube videos just by pasting straight http:// url. Ofc youtube side would never know about random links shared over here, but there was some sort of script that found a youtube link from post and made a flash video out of it. It wouldn't be the first time and wont be the last time either where plugins works incorrectly at websites after 3rd party changes, those plugins needs to be updated to adapt new methods. That's why I'd guess something has changed in embedding flash content in youtube side rather than someone turning this feature off at forum or someone breaking the script.
Now, if you tell me, there used to be a parser rule to converter https?:\/\/(www\.)*youtube.... (or something like that) into embed/iframe, its very plausible. Then again, nothing to do with any Youtube policy.

Old way, pasting http:// url in middle of post:
Embedding flash object with WYSIWYG tools:
Using youtube share url instead of grabbing the page url:
