Special Characters in youtu.be URLS | WordPress.org

Hi,

Just got a youth.be URL that includes a — in it. Looks like the plugin may not be able to process special characters yet.

Here is a link to try: http://youtu.be/341M–bGxPM

Please let me know if anyone has a work around or a possible fix. Of course, we can re-upload the video, but in case this happens more I thought I would ask.

Thanks

The hyphen in the Youtube Video ID is causing the URL to be read incorrectly. Can we get a fix for this?

Sorry about this, I’ll get this addressed as soon as possible.

I’m actually having trouble reproducing this. Perhaps I’m not doing it right.

I added the sample URL from cbenson8 and it shows up fine in my test environment: http://d.pr/i/tZ55+

The Regex for this looks for any characters, so dashes should be fine: http://d.pr/i/W1tx+
