BUG: Uploading one's own vids via web editor long post tab results in error msg.
Road
When trying to add a vid I've created (and loaded to my own youtube channel) using the media upload link box via the web editor long post tab, I always get the att'd error msg IN the editor.
My experimentation shows other youtube vids load fine.
Interestingly, if it helps in any way, is that the error msg replaces the link though does not show in a Shared post.
EDIT: Long post via web editor does not allow direct upload of vids, they have to have a URL.

Well, through some experimentation with @clseibold, we've determined that youtube designated "Shorts" are not embeddable on other websites.
Might be a thing to include in future info on how to use the media buttons in long post tab of the web editor.

So, we found out that it's only YouTube Shorts that are not working.
I believe YouTube is disallowing embeds of Shorts on other people's websites, so there's nothing that can be done about this, unfortunately.
