Martin,
if Youtube shows a Share link like
https://youtu.be/ClwO8Ds_j-Y
then you have to use exactly this Share link when posting.
And not anything else like embed, iframe or whatever.


Aside from that: Keep seperate issues aside from each other. The idea of this community is to benefit from solutions already given. And that means: Using the search function first - and hopefully find an answer already. But this won't hardly work with a subject like answer to grey YT video

I had this error a few times whilst messing about with videos.
That error is because you tried to use <embed> tag in your code to 'embed' the video.
Youtube will not allow it. Use an iframe it will work that way.
