If the video doesn't allow embedding, the page title will still appear and an icon will be displayed. Furthermore in 2.5.5 I put 'External embedding not available' in the anchor title. I also added a hook to enable modders to extend this functionality, but apart from that, not sure how much more I can do. Personally I would suggest editing the ame_nomedia template to maybe put text after the link like: (media cannot be embedded). I didn't do that by default because I didn't want to go overkill on visual hints.
