How does the insert video link thing work?

On other forums I usually just post a link to Youtube and the video show's up in the post. Doesn't work here (I get a standard text link). So, I tried the Youtube button and all it does is give me the code brackets with "Youtube /Youtube" in them. when I put my link between them nothing shows up. Ditto for the Video button. What gives? How do you use them?

Not sure why this doesn't work. I've reported it...

To insert YouTube video you need to get embed-able URL that looks like this: https://www.youtube.com/embed/x8XJaqeZMHE. You can get it in the YouTube click on Share->Embed then copy the URL from the IFrame markup.
