If using a HTML widget

It appears it is currently embed using this...

HTML Code:

<embed width="520" height="320" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" x-shockwave-flash"="" application="" src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=979W1QB1H2Q">

Perhaps use this instead...

HTML Code:

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/979W1QB1H2Q?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Change width and height as needed.

The main reason the embed code you were using wasn't working was because you had the actual YouTube page as the video source.

HTML Code:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=979W1QB1H2Q

However, that's just where the video is embedded on YouTube. The source of a YouTube video will look like this:

HTML Code:

http://www.youtube.com/embed/979W1QB1H2Q

In any event, the iframe code Mr_Running posted is probably the better option, since that's what YouTube promotes now. Again, note the source URL.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
