I had answered Zackzeta on another thread.
Try putting only the video index ( last part after the v= in the the full YouTube URL LINK) between the youtube tabs.
That should do it.

No problem.
That part after the "v=" is the BBCode - so Matt's directions are correct - just most of us didn't know what a BBCode was!  :)

I've just edited the original post, as YouTube changed the way you embed the videos last year and Matt's original directions hadn't been updated.
