Help Needed

Embedding videos from YT:
When I imported my entries over from LJ, embedded videos from YT failed to materialise. I knew this was a known issue at the time. I planned to follow the FAQ advice (at a later date) and re-paste in embed code from YT into the relevant entries.
I tried that tonight and the code still doesn't register or show to a/any video. I just get a broken icon and a white dotted line around the space where the vid should be. This also happens if I try to embed a video into a new post.
Anyone know why this is?
And if there is a work around?
I have made some custom CSS tweaks on my dreamwidth ( popped back here just in case: )
But I very much doubt that these are what's interfering. They seem really basic - which of course is why I managed to plonk them in the CSS box successfully to begin with! *grin*
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Problem which was identified as user error *g* solved thanks to the gracious and helpful people on the thread.
Thank you.
