Cannot embed YouTube videos on my site

A few weeks ago, I attempted to embed a YouTube video into my website.

This resulted in weebly changing the video address no matter how many times I correct it.

Weebly will only direct to the incorrect youtube video rather than the one I specify.

Today, I tried to embed another youtube video and now all of my videos on my page display this message...

Does anyone know why weebly doesn't allow YouTube videos as of a few weeks ago?
It's literally impossible for me to do business without embedding youtube videos.

Hey @weeblysucks2 – I appreciate your patience, and I’m sorry you're having trouble embedding YouTube videos. How big is the file size? Our site has a 1GB file size limit for videos, and videos can't be longer than 1 hour. If you're still experiencing issues, please reply with a link to your site and the video you're trying to embed, and I’ll be happy to take a closer look.

Hi there, i'm experiencing the same problem: embedded youtube videos (either with Embed Code block or with native Youtube video app/tool) are shown on editor's side but not visible once the site is published. Of course YT videos are 'public' so what's the issue here?
PS. I'm an experienced weebly user

Is the 1GB for all videos total, or per each video?
