Click the share button under the video on YouTube. Then click on the embed button. Copy the embed code and then paste to your LJ post.

Voila, you have posted a video.

Try doing the same thing and then click on "Use old embed code". Which is what I'm going to do right now:

I think LJ only recognizes the old embed code from YouTube and no the new one that has iframe in it. Though it recognizes it in the comments section, which is odd.

This time, try #3 , I got it. I have to use the "use old embeded code" from Youtube and put it into the HTML box here on LJ not Rich Text. Sheesh!
