YouTube embeds do not work when visiting securely (https)

It just shows a white box. Disabling secure connection fixes this in both Firefox and Edge.

Is why people should be posting links as well as the video. Also in Firefox it's quicker to temp disable the security. It'll be back on relaunch.

Links are the way to go. I’ve stopped asking for them though. So no more yt on rage for me.

I usually try to add an additional link... however, if it looks like a video worth watching, you can quote the message in question (as if replying), then copy and paste the YouTube character string into YouTube.

I guess I should have posted earlier, but I'm using Firefox with https. I see your Youtube embed.

Now saying this, I don't remember if I did anything specific to get the site to work, but looking through my settings, I don't see any tweaks.

My Firefox install is also cranked past the default restrictions too.

When the page loads with white boxes, you can click the shield or lock icon in the address bar of most browsers, and then select Site Settings or Site Permissions (each browser is different). Find the setting for "Insecure Content" or "Mixed Content" and set it to Allow. Reload the page, and the videos will now appear. However, the browser may warn you that the site is not secure for that page.
